Domestic Goddess: Is this correct, if one would like to post/share a recipe, we do so here?  If so, was searching to see if there were separate recipe categories?

Welcome Jenny. Missing a discussion is the nature of this site.  If you haven't posted on a discussion already, you can't GO BACK to it.

"I LOVE MUSIC.....ALL KINDS OF MUSIC"  Me too.

While I said I don't care for Opera, I have to admit it helped create my like for music. When I was a little one, probably 6 or 7 I somehow became the owner of a "Victrola"(?)  A Portable, wind up player. No amplifier, just a short metal horn to "amplify" the recording. One of the 2 or 3 records that came with it was "Triumphal March from Aida" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l3w4I-KElxQ .  My next recalled music was "In A Country Garden" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_e-wfnp7rE  which was played every lunch time or dismissal time in early Grade school. Both of those are embedded in my head and probably the start of my liking most music.

Oldiesmann

A great song from the 1976 concert film The Last Waltz. Few people had a voice like Levon Helm.


Oldiesmann

A classic I heard on the local oldies station earlier - one of several funny ones requested today (they take requests from 12-1 during the week and Friday is "freaky Friday" where you can request the funny stuff like this). Recorded in the 1940s and became particularly famous after being featured on the Dr. Demento radio show (for those outside the US, Dr. Demento is a DJ who plays all sorts of offbeat stuff on his weekly radio show, and has also released numerous compilation albums of said material).

Rick, I enjoyed both videos.  :thumbup:   I have that Sinatra album somehere in my basement archives, along with one called, "Songs For Swinging' Lovers".  I'll post my favorite from that album.  Your second video is beautiful and relaxing.

Another one (a repeat song) that's so easy to listen too.

That version is from the 2014 version of the film. Nobody did that song like Aileen Quinn in my opinion.

Here's a fun Superman-themed song from 1965. Jimmy Cross is best remembered for the song "I Want My Baby Back", which was a spoof of the teen tragedy genre that was popular at the time.


Oldiesmann

A great cover of a classic by none other than Mike Nesmith of The Monkees (along with some friends, notably Red Rhodes on steel guitar). While The Monkees were more pop/rock and roll, Nesmith's passion was country, and he was quite good at it.


MarsGal

Interesting, Oldiesman. I didn't know he was into Western.

More country than western, but yes he was big on country. Here's another great one he did with the First National Band...


Oldiesmann

@MarsGal here's the hit version of "Yellow Bird" from 1961.


Marilyne


Michael - I think the original 1961 hit version of "Yellow Bird" had lyrics?    I'll look and see if I can find the one I remember.

MarsGal

Sigh! We won't see much of any of this until Wednesday.

Didn't Harry Belafonte also record "Yellow Bird"?

Tomereader1

I have a poser for Oldiesmann.  A novelty song titled "Put Your Shoes On Lucy, Don't You Know You're In The City".  Don't know who recorded it or when but I'd like to hear it if you can find it.  Why it's been running through my mind is a puzzle to me!

Thank you so very much, Rammel!  I enjoyed that; now I won't be able to get it out of my head, for sure.

If he did, it wasn't a "biggie". The one posted above was the hit.
