Okay Ma-ake, you started us down this horrible slippery slope. This is terrible and I am so, so sorry for posting this.

That…. Is disturbing.

Makes me feel 12 again! Love the song, but feels like they are pushing the beat just a smidge. I like the trad version, felt like the drummer was sitting on the one. What say you?

Absolutely, perhaps more than a smidge.

…rector of “Takin’ Care of Business.”. The film is about the theft of a really nice guitar that meant so much to the artist that it’s loss negatively impacted his life for decades.I was never a great fan of guitarist Randy Backman, of the Guess Who and Bachman-Turner Overdrive, but I can relate to loosing a very precious instrumentIf you’re the least bit interested, you can listen to the podcast here at the link below, and if not, there are probably a several of you my age who remember the title tune, which I just spent the last few minutes learning to play (his were not complicated tunes). As a side note, he has to be the greatest Mormon rock star of all time.Edit to say, that Bachman and Neil Young were both saving for and competing against each other to purchase the guitar in question.

The Guess Who was the first concert I attended at the Salt Palace convention center as a 7th grader in 1970.

We need to exorcise this horrible malady, get it out, and we must never talk about this again!

We all look for different things out of our music.

@SkinyUte
Just clear this up. I posted for @salute’s post on your thread and couldn’t elliminate my comment about the tempo of the BTO song. Never meant to imply you, or your musc is a “wrong post.”
I thought I might have posted an erroneous ghost post.
My internet skills are sometime lacking. I like your musical contributions.
My apologies for poor tech skills. The butterfly comment made it seem even worse. It took me 3 days t realize I might have slighted you.

Frontline Assembly, that’s a serious callback for me. I listened to them a lot in the early 90s.

Since Skiny started the sharing:

I share the account with my wife, but I take full responsibility for the pop divas on the list. #1 is our niece, and we support (and recommend!) her. Most of the stuff we listen to are playlists, and these artists are clearly the most highly represented on them.

They’re definitely getting older, but are still putting out really awesome albums. Bill Leeb (FLAs frontman) also out out a solo record this year that is excellent.

I have all their albums in a big playlist that I listen to on about 75% of my morning runs. It’s great workout music.

[ExquisUte]

It’s funny how much one album can help with a workout. For the longest time I would listen to Lady Gaga’s “The Fame” or “The Fame Monster” and they just worked perfectly for a workout. Then I switched to Daft Punk’s “Tron Legacy” soundtrack and that worked for ages as well.
