I once got a reply from Mike Garson after mentioning him in connection with an Aladdin Sane track. My jaw dropped. 😯😊

Hi Michael, Kitty & all! Token 1 goes to a favourite from my clubbing days- Soft Cell & ‘Tainted Love’ youtu.be/XZVpR3Pk-r8?...

Afternoon Kitty, host, and fellow jukeboxers, going for singer, songwriter and one time partner of Dusty Springfield, Norma Tanega. Token 1 Norma Tanega Walkin' my cat named dog youtu.be/g0rKupWqQc4?...

2/2 In a time when bigotry is being encouraged by loathsome politicians to feather their vile cause, Pride is more important than ever. It's a topic week: Kitty wants tracks from LGBTQ+ artists, diva icons, and our many and various vocal supporters. Token 1 Marc Almond: Jackie All replies here👇

Kitty's short-fuse test for today: A course about AI, teaching you everything AI employers will need you to know. 🙄 vs. "Squeaky?" "Squeaky will be fine." Since I'll probably listen to it a hundred times today, can we not just have the second ad twice please? 😾😑

It's 11AM. Welcome to the Mystery Jukebox 4.0! June is Pride month. Kitty's young assistants have done wonders to fashion Gay and Transgender flags from Michael's best linen. Tattered as they are, they now fly free from the windows! THE RULES! NO REPLIES HERE⛔ 1/2 michaelgallagherwrites.com/rules

Hand on heart, which Jukeboxer would not wish to see Kitty installed in her very own pub once again? Her dream one at that! Who here does not miss the squelch of the sodden carpets of yore? Or the big solid Jukebox standing tall in one corner, belting out your selections for the price of a token? 🤔

I am forever grateful for the wonderful hosts the Jukebox ended up with. And my current thinking is that a really good percentage of punters (50%?) understand what we do and really appreciate it. @yamiacat.bsky.social @mmshere.bsky.social @stillhonest.bsky.social

Happy 🤗 Thursday morning 🌞🌄☕ my friend! I hope that you have a great day ahead!🫂💙

Well, it didn’t hold all my pictures on the first go round. This was right after I cleaned it up last week.

I was in a car accident just before New Year’s ended up losing my car. I bought this truck right after New Year’s so far it’s been good. It’s a Dodge ram four-wheel-drive extended cab with a 6.4 hemi it’s fully loaded with every option. I’ve never owned a Dodge. I hope it holds up.

But I know that is how the game is played, and we have no choice in the rules and the way lives are played out when it comes to death . I am OK with it because I know it is expected because we are human. But I do have all my memories.

So ,I have been spending a lot of time at the facility that he is in. I was there last night till 8 o’clock. You know it seems like yesterday I was in high school and here I am an old man and I’m looking at a shell of what used to be my father who was about to leave this life.

Its good to see everybody . I haven’t been on much except for just a peak every now and then. I’ve had a lot going on and my work has picked up to six days a week 10 hour days and to top all of that off my father was diagnosed with stage four prostate cancer, they gave him a very short time to live

This pic of my granddaughter, Violett was just taken this pass week . She just turned one years old last month .

This is the newest addition to my family, my 2nd granddaughter,Violett.

Just a pic of my girls. My wife, my two daughters and my oldest granddaughter.

I think Wisconsin is the heart of dairy farming in the US. One of my first readers (Laura) had a little farm there. Kitty is partial to a little cheese now and then, Marsha!

To cool .

Some want to destroy entire civilizations. Some want to repair what's been destroyed. After a Russian drone bombed Vlad's building in Hievakha, Ukraine, he managed to get out alive and even save his dog. Later, his charred guitar was found. Here is Tanya Shpachuk's restoration, part 1 of 10: 💙💛

2/2 I'm 60 hour-long episodes into a 156-episode walkthrough of Blue Prince. Most involve me shouting at the screen: "WHY? JUST WHY?" BP is rocketing. I've also been enjoying Monsieur Spade on U. Clive Owen stars as the Maltese Falcon's Sam Spade, now retired to France. www.imdb.com/title/tt1420...

Morning :-) Back to some more ICM today (Yay I hear you say!) - with my favourite tree in a bluebell field high above Okehampton on a cloudy day. I had hoped that it would be covered in blossom as it was last year when the bluebells were out, but it wasn't to be.... #icm

Happy St Patrick’s Day

#MusicStall #MusicChallenge Day 2, it's Ern400's stall, and I'm drawn to quote post this track. I've owned several 12" copies of it over the years (though, tbh, I'm not sure if it was ever released as a 7"). Lugosi died impoverished in relative obscurity. Strangely he looked like my uncle.

Can You Help? How old is the Mystery Jukebox? What year did it first start running? I know it was up and running well before the first lockdown, so that dates it prior to 2020. Can you remember the year you started joining in? Or something that happened while you were playing that you *can* date?

THANK YOU to everyone who replied to my post yesterday. Each of you gave a vital piece of information to help date the Jukebox. My best guess currently stands at late 2018/very early 2019. @kookaburra1966.bsky.social Michael put this thread together. Fascinating to see how it's changed over time!

2/2 To join in this Saturday's Jukebox SOME RESEARCH is required on your part. The tracks chosen for actor Shayne Ward suit his style and voice. But what key features do they have in common? Their formula? Time to cross Madame Google's palm with silver! For a start try: The Good Ship Murder songs.

Formula for The Good Ship Murder: Jack (ex-cop, now headline singer on a luxury cruise ship) solves a murder in each port then croons to a capacity audience. How does this affect Kitty, you ask? A surprising number of Jack's songs have served as her openers and closers over the years. . . . 1/2

Kitty is coming back to Milwaukee. Get those tokens and tips ready for Mystery Jukebox Saturday, usual time.

Florida sky yesterday .

This one's just fun. 🎄🎶❤️☮️

I had a tap dance routine to this as a kid. 😂❤️🎄🎸

Hoping everybody has a great day .

Merry Christmas, everybody
