A close friend saw Lukather (well after Toto) years ago and said he was 'evil' - in a good way of course. 

 

Brains are inexplicable at times. Your comment about 'evil in a good way' reminded me of this long forgotten Stevie Nicks demo:

 

 

haha. I jest. this is really just the original Atlanta Rhythm Section album track played at 45.

That's a new one on me - hurt my brain a little.

met a Cuban today (a person, not a cigar) and it reminded me of this:

 

anecdotal fact. my son gave his father the vinyl of this band just now at Christmas. I want to hear it poolside 🙂

HOLY CRAP this got my blood pumping this morning. HA! Good Morning 2bd:-) inspired by the lyrical thread

 

I got this feeling on the summer day when you were gone
I crashed my car into the bridge, I watched, I let it burn
I threw your **** into a bag and pushed it down the stairs
I crashed my car into the bridge

I don't care, I love it
I don't care

I got this feeling on the summer day when you were gone
I crashed my car into the bridge, I watched, I let it burn
I threw your ****  into a bag and pushed it down the stairs
I crashed my car into the bridge

I don't care, I love it
I don't care

You're on a different road, I'm in the milky way
You want me down on earth, but I am up in space
You're so damn hard to please, we gotta kill this switch
You're from the 70's, but I'm a 90's B word

I love it
I love it

 

icona pop i love it

the story is that Ry Cooder (the ponytailed white guy) went down to Cuba and assembled some of their best musical talent, many of whom hadn't played publicly in years, and recorded this album.  When you listen, you'll hear some electric guitar that seems out of place.  That's Cooder. It's a great summer album or anytime album.  They later went on tour.

this is a very fun cool summer vibe sound for me too Salud  🙂 I was not aware of the backstory at all.  My son it seems like every year gifts his dad an album for Christmas , He knows our taste runs the gamut 🙂

I was in a lunch line yesterday and engaged these 4 little boys...asked their name.  They didn't answer and the woman with them said they didn't speak English yet. Turns out she was their Cuban nanny!

rap at times makes me laugh because it is so Wordsmithy, ya know? The verbal flow and creativity I DO appreciate. I dont care for the explicit hard core stuff. 

 

I'm not a big fan of rap either but every so often I come across a song that I love. It's a bit disappointing to me that my boys listen mostly to rap but  a few months ago my high schooler told me he thought Steely Dan was really chill, college boy said he thinks Jack Johnson is the most chill and both think Holy Diver is epic so to each their own.

Get Ry Cooder to sing my eulogy.....

 

 

And I Remember Buffalo!!!

 

 

There are some bands and songs that transport you directly back to that particular time and place. For me this was when I was back in WNY for a Bills game back in the day . My accompanying  friend Robin  from Toronto blared this band and it imprinted on me that weekend. In her car. We had a BLAST

 

and this is my retort back to her .....rocking out to THIS song. Same weekend 🙂  it was the best groove car riding song around

Great story. But if your friend is from Toronto she must have demanded the original from Canadian Tom Cochrane?

 

 

Also perhaps more famously known for this...

another cool vibe right here. And the singer is a guy named Malcom Ford. He is the son of Harrison Ford and Melissa Mathison RIP She passed in 2015   She was the author screenplays for both of ET The Extraterrestrial AND The Black Stallion.  dough rollers

I Love it. I wasn't sure which version was the original. It is a GREAT car song obviously. we were a couple girls in vacay together and we rocked it OUT. And it would have been the original so yes 🙂 Thanks man.
