Vintage Trouble - "Another Man's Words"
New (to me) fabulous music! Love it, hope you enjoy.
Hat Tip: Can't hardly believe, don't make me say it, so sorry...LGF (no, I am not linking LOL). Those of you who want to go there know how...unless you've been banned...
Just made an interesting discovery. If you watched ""Rock Star INXS" about ten years ago and remember the black contestant, that was Ty Taylor, the singer here. He was my favourite on that show and he sure sounds good now.
The fuzzy chartreuse soccer balls plaice has changed its format. It's been eons since I've been there. It seems to have morphed into a money-begging site. Lots of whining about donations, wanting me to turn off my ad-blocker (not), GoFundMe link, Amazon portal. Icky poo poo.
Of course, for 60 bucks/year he'll turn off the ads at his end. Mighty white of him, innit?
BUT, great music is great music! Nice find Fay! Kudos for mucking through the sewer to discover this gem. These guys are really good! They're new to me too. :)
Hmm. To be fair to ol cee jay (why? just to keep my own perceptions calibrated, no consideration to him), his site is typical these days - full of ads, affiliations, and begging. He's just another traffic whore.
Of which there are many, including on "our" side. (Who is "we", kemo sabe? Yeah, exactly).
It's a lot of work to maintain a site like that. I'm a smart ass and a troll and I could probably do it, but I'm too lazy.
I'm still trying to figure out how to generate a site like that using Machine Learning / Artificial Intelligence. I'd do three or four to cover the entire political spectrum. And spend the money on hookers and blow. (Oh wait. Too old for the latter and too married for the former. So charity, then.)
Belated happy new year to all my friends here, to Lewy and Fay and Matt and Lady Red and Floranista and Dances and anyone else who may be lurking. :)
Hope you all had a wonderful holiday! We spent the weekend with our kids and had a great (but rather noisy!) time. Just finished up with a grand family reunion of a bunch of us cousins at a local eatery. Very enjoyable but I think the waiters are still recovering from our dulcet tones... :))
What is that I hear? Dare I say -- gasp -- musicians? Sacre bleu!
ReplyDeleteBrilliant, oui?
