    It's made my night too
    Thanks for that great link les

    I've been playing around with the associated links for over an hour and found some absolute gems.

    Music can have some real power to conjure up emotions and memories.
    Here's one that really holds some special memories

    Terpe, I love that Amen Corner song too, and it's one that I bought.

    Great memories from just after I moved to York.

    Girls at the youth club, parties, my first experience of live band concerts too...like The Move and Status Quo.

    Left school at 15 in 1962 and then went on some of the best years of my life.
    A few of my mates had Elizabethen tape recorders as we couldnt afford to buy records and then on to the so called portable record players.
    When I broke up with my first girlfriend she sent me Dionne Warwick..Walk On By

    First record I bought was C`mon by the Stones and Needlers and Pins..Searchers.

    Then started to go to the all nighter clubs, Flamingo, Scene, Last Chance, Beat City and the Le Discotheque also in Wardour Street. Normal greeting in the middle of the night was Hi Phil, Dave, etc... got any gear? happy pills 6p double blues 9p old money and they used to charge 2/6 for a bottle of pepsi

    See what old music does..I get maudlin

    First records I bought (3 for £1 token) were Rolling Stones 'All Over Now', Kinks 'You really Got Me' and Four Seasons 'Rag Doll'.

    Still got them all, and what great taste I had.

    I thought they were amusing Doc, but quite honestly I don't associate myself with an image of being old...or past it.

    My memories just go back a long way, but I'm just as interested and involved both physically and mentally with what is happening NOW, and certainly enjoy the latest music too.

    I love music from the 60's/ even 70's...why? it is what I always heard from my big brothers & sisters way back home in our karaoke/videoke session. I feel embarassed as long time ago, I thought they were american singers Until I meet my husband & all he can say was even thought Phil Collins, Rod Stewart...& even some of the songs like "to sir with love" thought it's bl**dy american thingy. Oh Philippines, too much americanize adaptation lols. The only british singer/ group that I knew when I was little was "the beatles".... didn't even thought that Tom Jones is Welsh....oh I'm so embarassed.
    If you can't say something nice. SHUT UP!. Simple.

    yeah Graham, lots of wicked english singers/ group band. My hubby wondered why me (& the family) knows them & their songs. lols. But the family loves them & I love Dido, coldplay, sting, black sabbath, led zeppelin, pink floyd, The Who, Eric Clapton,....mostly all that you mentioned above are very famous in the Philippines. In the 80's as I love 80's, duran2x was famous too but was over powered by Madonna & Michael Jackson. I also love Rihanna's r&b style.

    While I can listen and dance to this I will never grow old !

    Last time we lived in the Phils, in our house I had a sound system that I bought from a night club , and I used to have this blasting out all the time.

    that's cool graham...me & my mates in 'Pinas always sing that thingy in videoke we had a mobile system at home. from the 80's my brothers run a mobile sound sytem for hire like disco's/ fiesta's/ xmas parties to schools & companies to north & sound of Cebu even reach Leyte. But when they got married, we sold some of our 12 bigs speaker box & some mobile sound equipment. We maintain a few for our personal use like disco lights, music box & speakers....So at home, we always have this full blast sounds glad the nieghbours didn't throw us tomatoes

    Actually that's one of my favourite aspects of Filipino life.

    You put some good loud music on, and instead of sending the police like happens in England, you will find some people dancing in the street outside your gate.

    For me, that makes up for all the barking dogs, crowing fighting cocks, and noisy trikes.

    That spirit of FUN.

    Mary Jane Blige is rocking



    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

    Hello graham48, I hated disco music in the 70s but music like Mary J. Blige is great.
