DarlingSavage -> Blasts from the past! (2/7/2010 2:19:26 PM)

Just flipping through some videos on YouTube trying to come up with funky songs for my friends, mainly, the original intro to Soul Train when I then remembered these old favorites:

Cutie Pie

Fire

Get Down Tonight

Play That Funky Music

What songs did you like from this era? I loved these songs and my first experiences with boys took place with this soundtrack. What were you listening to when you were first discovering the opposite sex?

While My Guitar Gently Weeps

At one time I liked Soul Train.

Then - I changed tastes in music- as did the show.  Some good memories tho. :-)




DarlingSavage -> RE: Blasts from the past! (2/8/2010 12:50:09 PM)

GreedyTop!!!!

OMG!!!! I remember ALL of those! What great songs! I loved those! Thank you! I hadn't heard any of those in SOOOOOOO LOOONNNNGGGGG!

Billy, don't be a hero, come back to me! I was 11 when that came out!

I heard my mama cry, I heard her pray the night Chicago died! Another great one!

Loved One Tin Soldier, too. And of course, Kung Fu Fighting! Anyone would be hard put to find something I didn't like, though. Thank you so much!

Pah,
I never really liked Soul Train, but we had this babysitter that loved it. She would always put it on. She was really nice. We liked her.

Here's another one with great memories attached. My mom grew up in Arkansas, but we all lived in Dallas now. We went to visit her childhood friend, who was also a lifelong friend and friend of the family. Anyway, she had a son, Jay, who was my age. All the parents would be downstairs drinkin' and carrying on. Meanwhile, Jay would play this song and we would slow dance. Oh my, I would just go breathless around him, I was so fucking hot for him! I'd have done anything he told me to! I think I was 10. 1973!

ROCK ON!

Thanks for the memories.

We are the same age.   a unique thing.  We have an understand of the world that others do not.  Being not quite a boomer or an exer.   That means we can navigate both generations with relative ease.   :-)

Nice video, kittylectro! I still like the original better, though. Course, I was dancing in the clubs, then goin' to the after hours clubs doin X, back when it was legal, dancin' to this song.

Afternoon Delight? I loved that one, too!

Pah, I thought I was a genXer. Certainly did enough of it!

Thanks :)
Liquid Liquid's "Cavern" is the original.
Melle Mel borrowed the bass line and the "phenomenon" vocals for White Lines.

You keep making me tattle on myself.

Poke Salad Annie. A slewful of hillbillies did it and so did Elvis. It gurgitated somehow and I got it on P2P. Actually P2P has been very good to me. But what gets me that in this particular crowd, a subset let's say, who are 40-50 years old, NONE of them can remember this tune.

And these are hillbillies. Yes they are temporarily urbanized hillbillies, but as such over the years you would think they heard that song at least once. On Grampa's radio or some shit.

I may not have links but if you want to really backslide here............

Claude King - The Commenchros
Platters - Twighlight Time
Buddy Holly - Rave On
Glass Bottle - I Ain't Got Time Anymore

And ain't no MF out there with more soul than me, because I got :

Joe South - Games People Play

I have never heard a song with lyrics any more true. I do not make such a statement lightly. Fast forward about a decade and you got :

Dwight Twilly - I'm On Fire
Donna Summer - I Feel Love
All the good Zepplin, Rush etc. was starting to gain a foothold and many bands seemed to disappear. Well they didn't, not really.

I think my personal collection is vast, not so much in volume but in scope. In fact, if you think up something old that I like and do not have, but it slipped my mind, I will get it. I'll send it to you along with whatever else will fit on the CDR. Anything you want. Understand alot of downloads are done in seconds, but some take a month because only one person has it and they are in bumfuct Brazil somewhere. I'll fill up a CDR, just say what you want on it. They are cheap, postage might be a buck or two but big deal. To enhance my collection is worth it.

Ok, Green Grass and High Tides Forever? That has to be one of my all time favorites! I LOVE that song! Total greatness! Great songs, Kana! Thanks!

Come down off your throne and leave your body alone
Cream
I was 6 when that came out. I had to find that one on my own as a teenager. My parents didn't listen to that "hippy music" outside of The Beatles.

Here's a one hit wonder, Donnie Iris, Ah Leah. I first heard this down at the lake, I think I was 17, down there getting stoned with my boyfriend and a couple of girls that were dancers.




DarlingSavage -> RE: Blasts from the past! (2/8/2010 10:11:55 PM)

Thanks, Kitty, I did not know that!

thishereboi,
I swear, I actually saw that when it aired on TV! I liked that song, too! I had no idea what she was singing about though. I was too little to understand.

Termyn8or,

You're right, I never heard of those, but I sure did love me some Led Zeppelin!

Let's not forget Heart!
