I just love those songs...too cool. I've been trying to figure out if I 'really' did hear Iron Butterfly perform "The Weight" on their comeback tour in the '80s. I believe I did... :)
And speaking of cover bands, the HSCC and the LLB have each just uploaded two gems again... ;)Quote:

R.I.P. Robbie Robertson — he passed away at age 80 only two days ago. :(
Considering that all of the great musicians of the 1960s and '70s are in the late autumn of their life now, they're unfortunately starting to fall like leaves. Only two weeks ago, the world lost Randy Meisner, the bass player of the Eagles — albeit not the only one they ever had.
The song below is one of the very few Eagles songs in which he also sang the lead vocal.
Really nice, beautiful smile. LLB was really good, too. Kyrie eleison...I know that Latin phrase well...It was part of the Latin mass back in the day. Lord have mercy...Christe eleison...Christ have mercy. Former Knight of the Altar. :)Quote:

Dreams by Fleetwood Mac is perhaps my favorite song of theirs, I have listened to it a lot.
This is my all-time favorite:

I knew a few people that were in Vietnam...a couple of them didn't make it back. I've been acquainted with quite a few that were combat soldiers. One was a work manager of mine that was voted by his people the person that they would most want to go into battle with. I knew him as a kid and admired him before he was there. He said he loved his experience. Another guy that I worked with described his experience in a firefight as surreal where his senses were alight. Like he said he could see 360 degrees around him. Another with PTSD. No family though. One guy that was a close family friend had a friend of his killed. I asked him what kind of person he was and my friend remarked that "he was a great guy". The other one that died was a family member of kids I went to school with.Quote:
