Pink Floyd! Need I really say anything else? Enjoy!
1980s Rock
“Pop Goes the World”
This just has to be one of the best songs for getting you “up and running”! Continue reading
“Song of Bernadette”
Jennifer Warnes obviously liked Leonard Cohen’s writings as she released an album (“Famous Blue Raincoat”) based on them. “Song of Bernadette” was an immediate hit with me, and I still love this arrangement of it. Continue reading
“Old and Wise”
I love pretty much everything about this song – the melody; musical arrangement; vocal presentation and, best of all, the lyrics are interesting and rather thought provoking! Continue reading
“Full Moon Man”
I fell in love with Grace Slick’s voice and song delivery when she was with Jefferson Airplane and, specifically, with her rendition of “White Rabbit”. I later bought her solo album (“Dreams”) not knowing quite what to expect, and was very pleasantly surprised. Continue reading
“Maya Gold”
I have loved Mike Oldfield’s recordings, from his initial “Tubular Bells”, to the “Orchestrated Tubular Bells”, to “Tubular Bells II” .. not forgetting “Ommadawn” and a number of others! Continue reading
“Hero of a Fool”
Here’s another song that I came across as I was transferring some cassette tapes to my laptop. It too (like the Carly Simon song “Julie through the Glass” last week) was one that I really liked … and I can only wonder why I haven’t played it for so many years. Now, in digital form, it can be played so easily! Enjoy Jennifer Rush from 1983.
“Julie Through the Glass”
My granddaughter arrived into this world, pretty much the way she has been ever since …. expressing herself extremely well! Continue reading
“For You Only”
You just have to love the 1980s! An Alison Moyet solo from her debut album “Alf” (as distinct from her time with Yazoo … aka Yaz). Much as I love her voice, the video here does nothing for me! Enjoy her singing! Continue reading
“The Same Old Sun”….
A lovely touching song from The Alan Parsons Project in the mid 1980s. Continue reading
