Who you got - Sir Nose or Star Child? You will dance or I'll shoot you with the Bop Gun. #70smusic youtu.be/4bgTI3KN4d0?...

Here's a great "Extended Baroque Mix" of The Left Banke's Walk Away Renee. A great rendition of one of the best baroque pop songs of all time. Good work by the creator mosogotam! #60smusic #baroquepop youtu.be/cC7ku584GdE?...

GIve Mike a follow.

She Did It by Eric Carmen 1977. A triple treat of Eric’s vocals, the drumming of Jeff Porcaro, and a guitar solo by Andrew Gold! #70smusic. youtu.be/CjxpJccK2Tw?...

70s music going out with a bang. Not a single traditional disco song in this playlist.

Carlton’s Everlasting Love cover was as good as the (also very good) 60s version by Robert Knight. RIP

Raul Malo of the Mavericks passed away recently. They had a fun soulful sound. Here's a great cover version of The Tremelos #60smusic hit Here Comes My Baby (without the cowbell). #90smusic Rest in Peace. www.youtube.com/watch?v=cos9...

#GeorgeHarrison, #SmokeyRobinsonAndTheMiracles, #The5thDimension, #BrianHyland, and more: A playlist of 15 songs that reached their peak chart position in December 1970. #70sMusic #1970sMusic open.spotify.com/playlist/5Dc...

Barry McGuire singing This Precious Time on Shindig in Dec. 1965; 60 years ago tomorrow. The song is OK but what's notable is the accompaniment of the Mamas and Papas. This is the first song that prominently featured the harmonies that were perfected in the USVI. #60smusic youtu.be/SMNJuOGmsk0?...

Groovy Kind of Love by The Mindbenders without Wayne Fontana. One of the best love songs of the #60smusic with elegance in its simplicity. youtu.be/jinZMqbS29M?...

The Buckinghams are my favorite #60smusic artist from #Chicago #Illinois. They had several hits over a relatively short timeframe and one of the last, and my favorite, was Susan. This video features Ana De Armas; there was one floating around YT with Susan Dey. #cozyhollow youtu.be/GdfDa25us3Q?...

PF Sloane sung as a duet by the author Jimmy Webb and Jackson Browne. Browne sounds really good and compliments Webb's story and the great musical arrangement in this classic tune. #1960smusic #2010smusic youtu.be/y8LhZuXEoF0?...

She Let's Her Hair Down by The Tokens. This song probably got more exposure on the shampoo TV commercial than it did on the radio. The singer has a great voice and can hit the high notes. #70smusic youtu.be/45akBxUlowI?...

Crosby Stills & Nash was one of the best debut albums of all time which is not surprising given their backgrounds. Wooden Ships is one of many great songs from this album. The home where the iconic cover photo was taken was vacant and soon to be demolished. Sofa! #60smusic. youtu.be/AdiuqQ7xm30?...

Willie, Waylon and Merle are the best know Outlaw #Country artists but David Allen Coe is as authentic as anyone. Here's a live version of DAC doing Longhaired Redneck in the #70smusic. Crazy clothes. youtu.be/MK2Bum5vepw?...

American Dreams was an early 2000's TV show about life in 1960s Philadelphia and American Bandstand. Here's a compilation video with the songs Run Baby Run by the Newbeats, I Never Dreamed by The Cookies, and I'm Happy To Dance With You by The Smithereens. #60smusic youtu.be/1oEGvtOrv7M?...

We stopped at the George Harrison tribute along I-57 in Benton IL. George visited his sister there in 1963. You was a Spector-esque song from #70smusic. Some good home footage of him and Pattie. #Beatles. youtu.be/fTljhvB3g9Q?...

Lou Christie performing I'm Gonna Make You Mine for the legendary #Miami DJ Rick Shaw's TV show. Footage shot at some hotel that is likely forgotten and long gone. This video is a lot better than the official that was shot in a junkyard. Underrated talent. #60smusic youtu.be/Cx4n6tZQHnw?...

Check out the new Half Cubes release. Good power pop. open.spotify.com/album/4ifCwv...

Goin' Back written by Goffin/King and performed by the Byrds. This is from the album with a cover where David Crosby was replaced by a horse. "But thinking young and growing older is no sin". #60smusic youtu.be/vHq6ZYpN23g?...

My Girl Has Gone by The Miracles. It's always a good day to listen to some Smokey #motown #60smusic. youtu.be/GufNOwORivY?...

What Might Have Been by Little Texas describes the longing for a potential love lost. The music video describes a lost war romance of which I'm sure there were many. A fitting #veteransday song. #80smusic youtu.be/uEE3ycDH9_8?...

One of the best things that happened to #countrymusic was when England Dan transitioned to Dan Seals. He had a great voice and recorded some of the best #80smusic. He lived right here in Hendersonville #Tennessee. Meet Me in Montana with Marie Osmond. youtu.be/feAuAJZkcdA?...

So Good, So Right was released by Brenda Russell in 1979. This feel good soul/pop song deserved better chart success. The basic instrumentation and superb backing vocals really highlight her voice. #70smusic youtu.be/4RkHAv9sn7o?...

LOL

Soul Deep by the Box Tops is a great feel good song from the #60smusic. Alex Chilton is a teenager with a voice and presence way beyond his years. Back when #Memphis was the music capital of #Tennessee. youtu.be/7ThTEx1r3h0?...

Edge of Sundown is a deeper album cut from Danny Joe Brown and the Danny Joe Brown band. Haven’t heard this song in a really long time. #80smusic #southernrock youtu.be/VhgJTZ4pYeY?...

BJ Thomas was a great singer and his voice speaks for itself but the music offered some of the best #baroquepop of the #60smusic. Here's an excellent extended mix of The Eyes of a New York Woman. Sitar, layered orchestration are a great accompaniment to his vocals. youtu.be/clcXcXTRpu8?...

Walk Away Renee is a standard in the #baroquepop genre. This video highlights many places that I've had the pleasure of visiting - Paris, Rome, Copenhagen, Rio, Sydney, Nashville? Probably a few others. Another good creation from #cozyhollow on YT. #60smusic youtu.be/tJy5wgZojPc?...

#Interestingly Lou Reed is a seminal figure in American music & a cultural icon of the disenfranchised… both as frontman for The Velvet Underground & as a solo artist. Andy Warhol might have given him a platform, but the brutal honesty in Reed's lyrics made him a legend. #LouReed #OneHitWondered

We spent the weekend in Montauk NY and while drinking a few cold ones at the bar across the street we got to see the world famous Memory Motel in person. Mick and Keith sharing lead vocals. #70smusic #Stones youtu.be/FJ4be-0Nt0s?...

Phil Spector was an eccentric person but his contribution to #60smusic was unmistakable. Do I Love You is one of many great ones from his signature group The Ronettes. Happy belated Girl Group Friday! youtu.be/wL7LaOVIyXU?...

Tom Rush released No Regrets in the #60smusic. The lyrics, piano and string arrangements are so freaking good. This is about as good as you can get in the baroque folk/pop genre. Mad props to whoever did the production and arrangement to complement his storytelling. youtu.be/Tt-OhDfCvRs?...

Conway Twitty was from Arkansas but settled here in Hendersonville #Tennessee in the #50smusic. He had his compound Twitty City that was lost during legal battles for his estate. It's Only Make Believe was covered perfectly by Glen Campbell but the original is also great. youtu.be/fIBdnzdZP08?...

New Waylon Jennings release; Songbird cover from Fleetwood Mac. Shooter apparently found this in the vault and did a good job with the remix and the legacy video footage. #Tennessee #70smusic. youtu.be/r6OlvttAEvo?...

Tony Orlando looked young but he had been toiling in the biz for about a decade before Dawn. The formula worked and they had a great run on audio and TV. What Are You Doing Sunday is a feel good song and features Tony w/o the ‘stasche. Filmed in Central Park? #70smusic youtu.be/hUSkXERkWbw?...

In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida full version with the drum solo. Supposedly the singer was lit up and was trying to sing "In The Garden of Eden". The band liked it and the rest is history. XM Deep Tracks used to play this at 8 PM Pacific every Saturday night. #60smusic youtu.be/An0o46MAzm4?...

Great songs don't need esoteric lyrics, a ten piece horn section, or two drummers. As wise men say there is elegance in simplicity. A Groovy Kind of Love by the Mindbenders is a perfect example. One of the best love songs of all time. #60smusic youtu.be/b3kXqlJhGuE?...

Cheap Trick Live March 1979. Audio clip supplied by Bun E’s Bootlegs. #70smusic. This was a loud and energetic set. youtu.be/yqOEXtQzaLA?...

We’re in Champaign Urbana for #Illini USC football. Appaloosa was an East Central #Illinois band that had a decent local following. The bass player was a friend of a friend. #80smusic youtu.be/-qBFkTdxJQ8?...

I Can't Find the Time by The Orpheus is definitely in the #baroquepop Hall of Fame. The composition and arrangement of the instruments is remarkable. I really like the horn parts - so good and I think I hear a tuba in there toward the end. #60smusic youtu.be/Vx_D4O3fuBg?...

If you had to pick a song that exemplifies #baroquepop it would likely be I Can't Let Maggie Go by The Honeybus. Luv the oboe in the intro and fade plus the woodwinds have sort of a duel starting at 1:29 with the oboe then cor anglais then the bassoon in order. Fun #60smusic youtu.be/ih4zwp-0GeQ?...

#Baroquepop is an art mostly lost to the #60smusic - but there were some truly great songs. Traces by Classics IV is one of the best examples. The English horn in the intro, the string buildup leading to the bridge, the sax at 1:54 and of course the vocals of Dennis Yost. youtu.be/WzXkp9p2294?...

AI is cooked

R Dean Taylor was a songwriter/producer who released a few songs himself. Indiana Wants Me is a #Motown single from 55 years ago in 1970. This song has held up well and the video creator did a great job telling the story #70smusic. youtu.be/2p3OfHP5Hmo?...

Argentina, a tale in three parts:

The Rubinoos are what might be described as "deep cut power pop" and they never achieved the success of their 70s-80s contemporaries. The Half Cubes did a great cover of My Girl that included feature appearances from other vocalists from the genre. #2020smusic youtu.be/imtJwzcDgA0?...

Poor Shirley features some of Chris Cross’ best vocals. The lyrics are somewhat ambiguous which makes is interesting - to me it’s inspiring and hopeful. This video is great. #80smusic youtu.be/ToFZpKjVoRg?...

Happy #GirlGroup Friday! I lived in Myrtle Beach 40 years ago when shag was still kinda' a thing with the locals. He's a video from the movie Shag featuring The Four Pennies (aka Chiffons) mostly forgotten classic When The Boys Happy The Girls Happy Too. #60smusic youtu.be/hrPA45Vppes?...
