Flat Rock native 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2017 With you on this one friend, Mick a great showman lesser as vocalist. No dazzling vocals like Journey, with S Perry fronting. Keith Richards made the Stones stratospheric, big fan of Keith, despite his life-style antics. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Flat Rock native 0 Report post Posted December 14, 2017 That is some fun music Chug. Will be playing again when I visit this thread! Mike Chell made a comment recently about how the older he got the smarter his parents were. I think the same thing quite a bit these days, thus I listened to Eric Clapton's "My Father's Eyes."

mikechell 0 Report post Posted December 14, 2017 My Dad passed away more than a decade ago, so I am okay with it. BUT ... "Mike & the Mechanics" ... "The Living Years" I can't listen to it without tearing up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Flat Rock native 0 Report post Posted December 15, 2017 You are correct Mike, it is a powerful composition; poetry with fine vocals, nice musical arrangement- very pleasant instruments that do not override the vocals or lyrics, only complements them. The central theme didn't affect me as deeply as anticipated. I was wary about digging it out of my archives but upon hearing, felt good about the place we were at as father-son when he passed away almost 18 years back. Wish I could say that about some other family too but I guess it wasn't meant to be then. Although the video was not as crisp as more recent productions, it did not detract from my enjoyment. The haziness really kind of enhanced it from my point of view. I thank you for sharing it here. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chugbug27 0 Report post Posted December 16, 2017 I'm liking this thread a lot. Great stuff, all. Today for me it's Got My Mojo Workin' (1956) - here played by one of my favorite NOLA bands (Shotgun Jazz Band) and an amazing solo trombone by another favorite, Charlie Halloran.
