Brilliant selection Gary.
Trombone Shorty got me excited. I will certainly be looking up more of his stuff when I get time.
Cheers ray

Here's what I was actually looking for.

Here's another one for Ray. A Canadian singer songwriter who goes by the name Bif Naked.

This tune's gotta be about 15 or 20 years old but it's still one of my favorites.

BTW, the shitty youtube recording really doesn't do it justice.

I'm gonna pull out my CD copy and give it a good listen today.

Thanks Gary
Kind of melancholic but a nice vocal sound. Kind of like kate bush.

I will google her other music. Check her out.
Cheers ray

Her other stuff is a lot more pop/rock but this tune always brought a tear to my eye. I first heard it around the time my mother was dying of cancer.

Her rockin tunes are a really good listen too though.

I own her second album, I Bificus. I may pick up a few of her later releases though. It's been some time since she was last on the charts.

I received this CD in the mail the other day.

I used to own them on vinyl and I was looking forever for a CD replacement.

Arguably Donovan's greatest albums ever.

[Rayblewit]

I once had 4 Donovan LP's. (60's mainly)
All were serious, mellow, soulful and folky. Not heard "cosmic wheels" before today. That one you can take out the serious aspect lol.
Gotta love "intergalactic laxative" lol.

Gary, here's a fun fact. My brother is probably one of Australia's foremost KPop experts. He has his own radio show and a blog on the subject. I'm not even sure how it happened!

Edit: Strike the word "probably" from that sentence!

 

[happyrat1]

If you've got to have a hobby I guess you could do worse.

I find it fun once in a while but if I had to listen to it every day I'd probably be sucking on the business end of a shotgun by now

I sort of posted these ironically

He's always had exceptionally eclectic music tastes. Although I guess his taste is not overly eclectic if one is a 13 year old Korean schoolgirl!
