Two part question - first album, fav bands of 70s/early 80s
Posted: Nov 21, 2009
1. What was the first single (45), 8 track, album or CD you bought with your own money? Most of you probably won't know this one but mine was "Billy Don't Be a Hero" by Bo Donaldson and the Heywoods. It was a 45. It came out around the Viet Nam war era so I assume that's what it was about.
2. Fav bands of 70s/early 80s
Zeppelin (At the beginning of Stairway to Heaven, John Paul Jones plays a part on his keyboard that sounds like a flute and I learned to play it by ear. I've heard scientists say the way Kashmir is played is actually very disrupting to the brain. Must be why I love that song so much.
Aerosmith I swear, they are ageless.
Floyd (Am I the only one who cannot sing along to their tunes without harmonizing?).
Rush Loved Tom Sawyer
Journey (my first concert ever!) Their love ballads were great.
Queen RIP, Freddie. Their songs ranged from serious to downright silly.
AC/DC, especially the song Big Balls. LOL. What a great song!!

Mine - just me
[ In Reply To ..]Oh boy is this going to age me. Am I the only one that misses 8-tracks. LOL
First 8-track - Kiss - Forget the name of the track, but I played it so much I wore it out.
First 45 - Lovin spoonful; Summer in the City. I belonged to some music club back then. Then of course there was K-Tel they had just about everything.
First Concert - Village People (okay, I'm goofy - I love the Village People)
Fav bands of 70s/80s -
Kiss
Village People
Three Dog Night
Led Zepellen
Bee Gees
Moody Blues
ELO
Doors
Any disco music
8 tracks ruled! - mt4toolong
[ In Reply To ..]Steppenwolf! Playing "don't step on the grass, sam"
The greatest thing about 8 tracks was you never had to turn them over. They cycled through the album and just started all over again which was great if you were in the back seat "necking" LOL
Forgot about Steppenwolf - Now they rock!!! (or rocked) :-) - just me
[ In Reply To ..]Don't know if they are still together but they were also one of the greatest of my time- Magic Carpet Ride, Born to be Wild, Move Over
And yes.....8 tracks ruled!
70s music - pp
[ In Reply To ..]THREE DOG NIGHT Pieces of April 8 track tape.......

Early Birds?Dec 27, 2013
Just curious if there are any other early birds out there? I start working around 4 a.m. every day. I'm more focused in the morning and work better getting an early start.

Hopefully, ACORN will not be involved in this election. If they are, then Coakley will win. Then I hope a recount is called. Hopefully, the Pittsburgh people will wise up if Murtha is up for re-election. One of the most crooked of 'em all. ...

Just wondering if I'm the only one who enjoys getting up early and working? Most people I know think that's crazy to want to get up early, especially on weekends. I am most productive very early in the morning and lose my steam by the mid afternoon. I know I can't be the only one, but maybe we are just few and far between?

FBI Director Firing In Early 90s Had Some Similarities To May 11, 2017
Less than a year into the new president's administration, the FBI director was fired. His conduct had been scrutinized before the election, but when the opposition party won, it took months for him to be out of a job. William S. Sessions, fired in July 1993, was until Tuesday the only FBI director dismissed in the middle of a 10-year term. He claimed politics led to his ouster, a view held to this day by some supporters. There are many similarities between President Bill Clinton' ...

Definitely not someone who should be president. ...

Why Don't Some Consider BC To Be Part Of Healthcare?Oct 22, 2012
