Bacharach wrote it, Arthur covered it, someone mashed the two together for the video.

Did not know that there was a reincarnation of Love still going.

Written for What's New Pussycat, originally recorded by Mannfred Mann for the film.
Regarding Love, They toured a few years back with Baby Lemonade who essentially became Love while maintaining their own identity too. The current version, billed as "Johnny Echol's Love" were who I saw. Not sure who else was in the band.

Just noticed it’s 8 years to the day since Arthur Lee died.

Am a bit of a closet Bacharach fan, he wrote a lot of music we're all familiar with. Like this and some maybe not so much perilously close to jazz but decidedly lounge off the same LP

I have a copy of “Magic Moments - The Definitive Burt Bacharach Collection”, a 3-CD set. Quite MOR but some great tunes. A very talented man.

Used to be a big Van M fan, well still am for the early stuff, have everything on Warner Bros but nothing after he moved to Mercury. Seen him once, Brighton 1979.

Best album?

So the Man City kick-off is 0200 Sunday morning, if I can get through to the final whistle then I suspect this'll be me

Paul McCartney - Picasso’s Last Words (Drink to Me)

[Mauswara]

I diplomatically decided to retire to bed at half time, 3am. Probably a good decision as next day was Wake Up You Sleepy Head

Jeffrey Lewis at Norwich Arts Centre. Lost track of how many times I’ve seen him, excellent as always.

Back in Nagasaki I got married to Cho Cho San

Barclay James Harvest. She Said.
Often called the poor man’s Moody Blues, always thought it a harsh comparison. This is from their second album, Once Again. The album of theirs I always return to despite having at least 5 others.

[Andym]

Dave Van Ronk and the Hudson Dusters. Selected at random from my collection. A strange one, Van Ronk was a contemporary of Dylan in the 60s. Never really made it Big because he didn’t write - before Dylan many folkies just performed old songs.
But for this album he formed a band - I suppose times were a-changing by then, and you were allowed to be a bit more electric. An early version of Both Sides Now as well as Swinging On A Star. A very odd mix of songs.

Been a while since I listed to BJH, they were reckoned the best set at Weeley, if my memory serves me right.

Pretty decent that.

The song “somersault” reminding me of Joe Walsh & the James Gang from the 70s

[marko69]

“BC Victoria”…… heavy sh*t

[ITFC2024]

They’re a band out of Colorado mostly independent production. Some of their stuff is more folksy but I love this album. Scents of crosby, stills, nash, young/ Radiohead. Nice stuff. Very original though.

[ITFC2024]

Ivy

Probably the best song I’ve listened to in many many years

This is from another album. I dedicated this song to my X. She never responded haha.

Slow Jam

Best use of a squeaky toy in music.

Recommendation from my eldest daughter. It’s pretty groovy!

I think you’ll like this one, Andy

My youngest was on about them a while back, seems their thing was how many different colours of record they could release.

Randomly pulled out my 12" 'Greetings To The Brunette' just now. Billy Bragg with Johnny Marr and Kirsty McColl, reached #58 in the UK singles chart so this is a bit mainstream for me

"How can you lie there and think of England if you don't even know who's in the team"

[Mauswara]

Van Morrison - Bulbs

Off my favourite of his albums, Veedon Fleece. Have a 7" of this, has Cul De Sac on the B side which is another fine tune.

I think they’re much better than the album covers. If there is a theme genre for modern hippies…this is it. If you like early Beatles and early Yes, you’ll like this.

Hope you’re doing ok Andy? Haven’t seen you post in a while.

Yeah, being Antipodeans they have had a lot of exposure out this neck of the woods.
