More of a behavioral study research project than hanging out

That would require more interest in the topic than I actually have. All I heard was an angry din that didn't resemble music in any recognizable form, demonstrated zero amount of talent, and featured lyrics an eight-year-old could've written.

It's a familiar argument, of course:

"What an awful song!"

"That's because you didn't understand it."

"What's to understand? It sounded horrible!"

"But you're not in touch with its deeper meaning."

1976...funky gospel soul with some wicked bass.

Takes me right back to the days of long hair, Afros, garish cross necklaces, flared jeans, big cars and cops shows

Bobby in cracking voice...nicely supported by another Soul stalwart. Lovely stuff

Funky

This was once my favorite song many aeons ago (it was actually the theme song of a TV cop show):

Time to unwind with some fine mellow jazz. GB before he went pop. The piano and guitar work is sublime...

Mostly myself. I bought a new Godin LG with Seymor Duncan pickups and it's now driving through my new Blackstar 30W amp with true Valve emulation and a pod X3 with a live 6 wah-wah.
Fulfilled a kiddie fantasy and walked into a music shop and bought what I wanted. It's quality.

The pod x3 live is a nightmare. It's going to be months until I understand it entirely.
It'll be fun though. Like when movie maker was new and we were learning to edit our home pornos.

RIP Dennis Edwards . . .

Thats David Ruffin leading on My Girl.

He left the Temps in 69 to be replaced by Dennis, who is featured lead on this, one of their many classics.

Really? I didn't know anything about the members of the band, actually, not even the late Dennis Edwards, though My Girl was one of my favourite songs during my youth (a couple of decades after it was released, of course

)

Temps again...this time from the 80s with the great Ali Ollie Woodson on lead vocals.

rowan · Post by **rowan** » Thu Feb 08, 2018 8:08 pm

Doesn't this one just take you straight back to the 70s - big cars, big hair, shades, open shirts, bell-bottoms & platforms. Groovy .

This may well be the best piano adaptation of Pachelbel's Canon:

Catchy tune

Classy blues ballad. The band are just so damn good......
