LOL.  That was quick, Andrew.  Well, we know what the longest name for a city is.  Krung Thep Mahanakhon Amon Rattanakosin Mahinthara Ayuthaya Mahadilok Phop Noppharat Ratchathani Burirom Udomratchaniwet Mahasathan Amon Piman Awatan Sathit Sakkathattiya Witsanukam Prasit.  Hey, that's my town!

That is also the title of a song that was a big hit for the Chotikun brothers back in 1989.

The entire song is the name of Bangkok too.

[Tippaporn]

A sweet tune, Ride, Ride by Anne Briggs off her '71 LP The Time Has Come.

Here's an artist that I've completely forgotten about.  Dan Fogelberg on As The Raven Flies off of his superb '74 Souvenirs LP.  Reminds me of the Eagle's Desperado LP.

[Tippaporn]

Another excellent Fogelberg tune, The River.  This off his '72 debut LP entitled Home Free.

 

 

[Tippaporn]

What the heck, I may as well make it Fogelberg three-fer.  There is that old axiom, all good things come in threes?  The beautiful tune, There's A Place In The World For A Gambler, also off the '74 Souvenirs LP.

Roy singing about his brother

 

[bannork]

it's only at this time of the year that my wife will ever sing the title of this song.

 

[bannork]

Timeless.A perfect match of the gentle and passionate.

Amazing you have still have all your limbs intact. Perhaps you should have gone to Nam, life might have been safer for you there.

Gotta love these good ole southern boys.

ah, just a buncha crazy kids...when yer that age you believe that you can live forever...besides the old chevy van that we were in could only do about 50mph...believe that we had taken some MDMA that night...with some red wine and a couple of cases of Molson Canadian...and with the lovely Colette, a 17 y.o. runaway from Quebec that my pal found wandering along the road in Williams Lake...she was a dish and serene amongst the madness...

 

I was showing her some chords on the Yamaha dreadnought that I bought locally that summer and I left it with her when it was time for me to go back to California...always wondered later on how she got on with her guitar playing...

Sometimes I envy Tutsi and his exotic adventures.

I mean no one's ever written a song called Going Back to Hull

No one has, in fact, ever gone back.

Wonderful singing from Sandy.

Dave Swarbrick giving it all he's got.

What a groove Traffic would lay down. And Winwood's voice. Absolute class.

Roy singing about his brother

 

Beautiful tune, bannork.  Nice to see someone who appreciates Roy Harper.  A very underrated artist who was an extremely accomplished lyricist.  Certainly one of my favourites.

 

This from his '69 LP Folkjokeopus.  18 minutes of ecstasy.

[Tippaporn]

If you liked that one you're sure to appreciate this as well.

 

Al Stewart's Roads To Moscow from his '73 Past, Present And Future LP.  Do you detect a hint of Roy Harper influence?  Definitely the same inflections in his singing style.  A beautiful tune, though.  Wonderful lyrics, too.

Another underrated and little known artist and lyricist, Nic Jones.  Here's Annan Water from his '70 LP Ballads And Songs.

One of my Roy Harper favs, Goldfish, off his superb '66 debut, Sophisticated Beggar.  Such a sweet tune.
