Futtocks Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 There are many recordings of this, and I suppose PP Arnold's is the best known. This one's a bit less fiery, more wistful in approach, but I rather like it. "We are easily breakable, by illness or falling, or a million other ways of leaving this earthly life.

Futtocks Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 One for the older listeners, perhaps, but musical satirist Tom Lehrer has made his songs available, copyright-free.

Futtocks Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 Not the only Terry Hall recording I'll hear over the next day or so, but I always had a soft spot for his cover of 'She'.

Futtocks Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 (edited) As a tribute to Jeff Beck, and despite not having learned the song, Tommy Emmanuel gives it the kind of go you'd expect from an Australian national treasure.

CanaBull Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Not sure if this is really the place for it, but this fella was in Toronto last weekend playing Elgar. One heck of a talented musician.
