Gypsy – One of My Favs

January 18th, 2012

I have always been a fan of Stevie Nicks and her music. She has made some awesome videos, too.

I love just about every song that she has done on her own, and I love the songs by Fleetwood Mac. I know I have at least three of their albums in my music collection.

I would be thrilled to meet her some day.

Stereo Demo in 1961

October 31st, 2011

Back in the 60′s, the development of stereo was big news for the music industry. This song was one of the great demonstrations of how cool stereo can sound. It was also a song that my father loved and he taught my two sisters and I how to sing it for that year’s family Christmas party.

Boom Boom

October 25th, 2011

This is one of my all time favorite songs, written and performed by the great, late John Lee Hooker.

This song is performed by John Lee in the Blues Brothers movie and there are other clips on YouTube. But this one from a 1966 TV show is my favorite.

I saw John Lee in concert at Wolftrap when he was in his 80′s and could not stand up to play any longer. He sat in a folding chair and gave a great show – full set – and he rocked the house.

Brother Louie by The Stories

October 13th, 2011

I heard this song playing in the grocery store last week and it has taken me all of this time to find out the name and the artist who did this cool song back in the 70′s, but I finally asked the right person and found it on YouTube.com.

Bruno Mars

October 9th, 2011

I fell in love with the song Grenade done by Bruno Mars last year when it came out. I had not hear it in a while, but today driving back home from our local pet store, it came on the radio and I really enjoyed hearing it and rocking out to it. So when I got home I went on YouTube.com and found it. It was then that I found out that Bruno Mars had also done Just The Way You Are, which is a good tune as well. Thought I’d post it here today.
