Sheesh. January is almost over already. This doesn’t seem right to me, like I’m suddenly whizzing faster and faster into old age and death. Stop! I’m still 27!
In case you’re new here, this is the part where you share favored music clips. No themes, no rules.

Fire Inc. – Tonight Is What It Means to Be Young
Ahhh, the 80s. 1,2,3,4,5 senses working overtime….

Allman Brothers Band – One Way Out
Oh, btw….
“Had 2012 BX 34 been larger — the size of a mountain, say — gravity may well have put it on a collision course with our planet. At that scale, given mere days to prepare, we may have been looking at a Deep Impact-style scenario.”

It was the 873rd space rock detected by NASA in the last two weeks.
This will be the next budget item the Teapublicans will want to cut.
Roxy Music – Editions Of You
A Flock of Seagulls – Telecommunication
I know it’s MUSIC night but this 1967 William F. Buckley interview of Saul Alinsky is fascinating if for nothing else, its calm demeanor. Talk about living in another world:
Adam Ant – Desperate But Not Serious
Phoenix – 1901
Chris Rea – The Road To Hell
This is worth watching just for the outfits! (Also the lack of tattoos and extraneous piercings.
)
Shangri-las – Right Now and Not Later
This goes out to Republican Rep. Larry Pittman who believes hanging should again be legal for “abortionists, rapists, and kidnappers”.
A typical repugnant teapottier didn’t pay much attention in history class
I couldn’t find an official video with very good sound quality but here’s the studio version of No One Loves Me and Neither do I from Them Crooked Vultures.

PORSCHE POSTERS, 1950S
Thanks Ebb! I have a book somewhere with some of those but I never looked for them in digital form.
Favorite drum beat…
yes indeed, Talking Heads
All in all a shitty work week. Some good success on a project today after too many hours trying other methods. Then at the end of the day I had a old (w)(b)itchy woman tell me one of my programs was “awful”.
This helps.
oh, that’s a bummer.
(nice choice on an Iggy rendition)
Thanks Ebb. It helped just to type it!
Hey Mitch Daniels! Here’s your campaign song……
Big Willy reminds me of these guys.
The Blasters – Marie Marie
For all women everywhere…
I’m having some ‘Recall Walker’ beer tonight. Sprecher Dopple Bock from Glendale, Wisconsin! Not the first Sprecher I’ve had, but the first time with this brew.

ROTFLMFAO
One of my usual videos to play ….. but *this* is different…..
Metallica, Enter Sandman….. cover by the Mini Band.
Here’s the link to the article and the vid without the annoying hobo bloke
http://www.metro.co.uk/weird/877893-kids-cover-of-metallicas-enter-sandman-goes-viral
And here’s lead guitarist Zoe Thomson belting out Sweet Child of Mine….
Nimble fingers…
Love these kids!
And now the whole band does Guns and Roses
Watch out G&R –
these videos are priceless – the kids great!
BTW, Weds night was Burns Night….. haggis is eaten….. whisky is drunk but before that….. a poem is read to the haggis…..
Rabbie, man about town!
And now some Scottish techno music….
One of only effective uses of the bagpipes in popular music I might add…..
The others were, Paul McCartney, AC/DC and Barenakedladies….
Staying Scottish but getting serious and playing the good stuff now….
Stuart Adamson, another talent gone too soon:
Heaven or Las Vegas – Cocteau Twins
Rolling Stones-Harlem Shuffle
I read Keef’s bio this past year …. I really enjoyed it. He’s a more interesting fella than I ever imagined…
Cocteau Twins – Scotland again
More from north of the border…… Simple Minds… songs of the 80s…. wow – college flashback on this one…
No not the gyrating girl in the black top shown above….. but Carolyn was her name.
Glasgow band, Texas sound…… in the Stevie Ray Style….
Thank you EV for the introduction to:
Bap – 19 – Verdamp lang her – Rockpalast Grugahalle
Dave Stewart and Annie Lennox…. the Eurythmics. Annie Lennox is definitely one of the most beautiful women of her generation and what a voice….
*The* blues band to see in Edinburgh in the late 80s. I loved to catch these fellas in the Preservation Hall just off the Royal Mile with my g/f Kathy….
Blues harp – excellent!
I’m taking my self back now….. loved these guys… they could blow a gig away.
Craig and Charlie – Edinburgh.. they were famous for ‘I’m Gonna Be – 500 miles’ but this is one of my favourites. What a love song….
“While I’m worth, my room on this earth,
I will be with you”
Although it has become a song for footy fans to express their love for their boys on the field
The Scottish version of “You’ll never walk alone”.
This Scottish band was made famous by Nirvana’s Unplugged album – they featured a couple of Vaselines songs.
No not them – them! Ah beer, they crazy things I do with beer …
Sensing a bit of a Scottish theme this evening. Some Franz Ferdinand then.
Yes, I was just seeking them out….. they are top flight songwriters IMO.
Scots theme came out of Burns Night on Weds….
Yeah, I do enjoy them as well.
Bit of a stretch, but AC/DC was mostly exported Scotsmen (exported to Australia).
No stretch at all!
And not one (I Want the World To Stop), but two (Write About Love) from Belle & Sebastian.
Lulu. To Sir With Love.
Jimmy Sommerville. Smalltown Boy. A poignant video about growing up gay in a small town.
Alas growing up gay sometimes brings out the absolute worst……
And we have to play some Clare Grogan/Altered Images. Happy Birthday!
Yes Christine Kochanski!!!!
Well sports fans I will kick back now and salute the haggis (I’m second gen Scots after all) with a glass of Glenlivet…..
Zx magically appears with songs!
And that’s all we have time for this week…… goodnight.
Billy Bragg – Waiting For The Great Leap Forward
The Smiths “How Soon Is Now?”

Nice music tonight, everyone.
Rest easy Ms Z, and you too Ebb……
