Sandy G 04-23-2005, 06:36 PM Because of my peculiar affliction, about ANY song from at least 1971-1979 makes me wax nostalgic. I'll hear, say, Edward Bear's "Last Song" & it's an instant trip back to early spring '73. I dunno what makes me do it, it just happens, & I'll be damned if I know how to shut it off.-Sandy G.
nevermind 04-24-2005, 08:41 AM "Dry your eyes" by THE STREETS from the album "a grand don't come easy".
nevermind 05-17-2005, 07:02 PM "Psychocandy" by The Jesus and Mary Chain.
For some of you who don't know The JAMC,is the last song on the beautiful movie "Lost in Translation" .

VinylHanger 05-19-2005, 12:11 AM Sting-Russians, Summer of '85, it was a make out tune. I was odd, she was hot, so it worked. :D
Elton John-Crocodile Rock, used to sing it with an old girl friend.
Denise Williams-Let's hear it for the Boy, she used to sing it to me :yes:
Phil Collins-Take Me Home, Sussudio, seemed to always be in my tape deck on the way home from a date with my eventual wife.
Dire Straits-Brothers in Arms album, also usually on as I raced home from a date with my eventual wife. I Want My MTV was always playing as I rounded the corner for home. I had it timed to a science. And that would be the actual corner to my street, not those other corners, those were usually rounded during a George Micheal song.
dgwojo 05-19-2005, 12:28 AM It's hard to beat Maggot Brain by Funkadelic, for those who lived in Cleveland, Ohio during the the 1970's, it was a 1:15am Sunday morning institution on WMMS FM (Home of the Buzzard) when driving home two sheets under the wind!! :scratch2:

Sandy G 05-19-2005, 08:10 AM Well, HERE'S an odd one-but y'all know how I am, anyway-"Single Saddle" by Vaughan Monroe from 1948-49. When I was a kid, I'd raid my parents' record collection, & THIS was on a 45-prolly some of the 1st 45s. IIRC, it was the backside of "Ghost Riders in the Sky". Would give my EYETEETH to get a copy now-I pretty much trashed the original.-Sandy G.
JoZmo 05-19-2005, 09:18 AM "Ghost Riders in the Sky", whoa! Wasn't that an instrumental? That was a tune that every kid learning how to play guitar had to know when I was growing up.
nevermind 05-19-2005, 09:34 AM "Tell me when my light turns green" by the Dexys Midnidght Runners.
"More Than a Feeling", Boston. Rock. From their eponymously-titled debut album released in 1976.
"Free Man in Paris", Joni Mitchell. Folk-Pop. From "Court and Spark", 1974.
I feel a wave of high school nostalgia coming on.
nevermind 05-19-2005, 03:23 PM "You can't your arms round a memory" by Johnny Thunders,from the album So Alone.
nevermind 05-19-2005, 03:26 PM ...how can i forget this : "Perfect Day" by Lou Reed in Transformer.One of the most beautiful songs he wrote.
