The Summerwine.net music thread

Goofy song, but heard it on radio today for the first time since the 90's (when it was played at least once every hour).

Not a huge fan but always liked Squeeze. I didn't know that much about them apart from the "Singles 45" compilation CD (which my family listened to quite often for several years in the car : ) and wondered why they weren't bigger in the US. Stumbled upon this (old and very lengthy) thread on a forum I usually associate with discussions about stereo equipment. I've not read the entire thing (20 pages !) but random clicking through some pages/comments appeared to be spot on and insightful. Sharing for those interested.
 
Always play these At Christmas, makes me a bit emotional…. but there you go.

I am not a fan of Liszt or his music but I was astonished at the brilliance of the Pianist in this video.

Watched Jools Hootenanny one word DIRE , hopefully that's the last, hard to describe how bad it was , when you think the people he used to attract now reduced to has beens of yesteryear and younger artists who are trying to make an impact but are failing miserably . Roger Taylor singing a medley of Little Richard hits , Really!! and the creme de la creme of those whose ship sailed long long ago and were mediocre at best the Boomtown Rats words just fail me .

I didn't see it, but ohhh I have very little difficulty imagining it.
Jools Hootenanny was almost a yearly ritual for me and mates in past years and now it's just 'WhoToNanny?'.

Awful just Awful :frown2:
 
Wow. Not heard of them before but enjoyed that song. Looked into their history a bit and sad to hear of the recent passing of singer Liam Reilly.
 
BADFINGER - BABY BLUE.
Very sad story behind this band. Absolutely brilliant musicians who deserved much, much more respect than the so called music business gave them.
