I can't work out how to do it so you'll have to make do with a link and go fom there.
Back in October 1973 I stayed up late to watch 'The Old Grey Whistle Test'on TV. That particular night a group called Greenslade was on. The next day I was on holiday from work so I went into town and bought the album. I still have it today even though I can't play it. Like Peter, I've just discovered Youtube as a way of listening to music and watching performances. I was really pleased to find Chalkhill by Greenslade. Joie de vivre is how I'd describe this one. It takes me back to happy times.
Joie de vivre is the right expression. When I think how I travelled before (30 years ago) with all my records. And now, I have and iPod, I have DVD's and watch YouTube.
ReplyDeleteAnd, instead of buying a new mobile phone (again, the last one I bought 3 month ago) I will buy one of those new iPods. And then I don't even need the DVD's anymore.
Peter: Thank you for taking the time to listen. Olivier came back from England with the teeiest little thing for his music; it's so small I'm sure he'll lose it, but he has his music with him wherever he goes. I love the old album covers, that's something which will be missed, I think.
