LOL Star...........

A feel to Black Betty.

Give me a slow song like "Whiter Shade Of Pale" and now we're talking serious feeling

LOL Star,ya mad thing .

Lorri, with you on the Foreigner thing. Just don't get it. Always hated " Urgent " and "Waiting or a Girl like You ".

Pat, that Heads song on your compilation " Life During Wartime " is one of my all time favourites.

As for " Rock and Roll ", legend, particularly on The Song Remains the Same at the start of the show.

Rolo.

Think I got it in Record shop in Kilkenny. I came accross it by chance.

Just tried searching online but appears to be available only secondhand online on amazon.

While looking, came accross the "top of the pops" compilations from the 70's. these were cheap to buy as they were cover versions anyone remember them? (they used to sell them in Woolworths - another blast from the past!)

 

Hi Finno, yeah, remember them...............only 'cos Sharon told me about them on another thread somewhere, swear.

Didn't they always have pictures of supposedly attractive looking girls on the sleeve.

Rolo.

My favourite Heads song.

 

Rolo wrote: Pat, one of my biggest regrets is that I never got to see Talking Heads live. Have seen David Byrne solo a few times and he does a few Heads songs in his set ( that one included ). You going to Quo in October or whenever ?

Rolo, not decided re Quo yet.

I think they're great live but with the hols on the horizon I need to watch the Bob Dylan's

Rolo wrote: Never seen them Pat . D'ya think they'd be worth a look ?

Deffo..don't know how much the tickets are. If you like Quo's music they are really good live. I've seen them so many times and have never been disappointed.

Talking heads were probably the first non mainstream
heavy rock/blues bands which I got hooked into as
a result of going to the Grove. Cecil only played
the one song (Psycho Killer ... if I recall) by
them but I got most of their albums on vinyl at
one stage and went regularly in early college years
to the Ambassador where they had these mad
"Stop making sense" showings every Saturday.
The atmosphere was great ... not as sublime as
the Grove but getting there ...
Some mad antics too. Folks jumping on to the
raised stage area in front of the screen and
bouncers stepping in to calm it down a little   

Yep Ian, remember that well. Also remember walking home afterwards with some friends at all hours of the morning.

Fear of Music is one of my favourite albums.Love Life During Wartime as I said, also Cities, Air and Animals from that Album.

Did ya ever get your hands on the other Live Album," The Name of This Band is Talking Heads " ? It's magic too.

I did Rolo but I sold it on during some moment of
temporary insanity. Much regretting that now.
I needed the cash for some electronic item or other
and I sold most of my Talking heads vinyl having
taped a few of the good tracks. Since lost the
tapes, of course.
