Great song. I think the Jam are really underrated.

The Jam, totally underated?.

I've only thought this for 40 years?

 

I don't know too much about anything, but I think I am lost in this thread? Maybe start another, I can not keep up with it all.

I appreciate  and enjoy music.

LB, don't worry, it's impossible to keep up with it all, Too many posts to listen to every song. Look at the thread like a box of chocolates, pick out your favourites whilst giving unknown confectioneries an occasional nibble.

I do not agree,by listening only to your favourites you are doing yourself short.

Listen to the music you don't know and you will find new favourites,at least that is how it works for me.

The enjoyment of a thread like this is coming across new songs as well as those familiar over the years..

RIP Vangelis

I agree with both of you.  There's no wrong answer to an issue that hasn't a wrong answer, only preferences. 

My preference, though, is aligned with jvs.  I'll check out the unfamiliar before I click on the much heard, though much loved, favourite.  It's the thrill of possibly discovering a new favourite to add to the long, long list of favourites.  Anyone else getting tired of looking at the wife?  Just kidding!!!

The problem is that some people post too much.  Just don't ask me to point fingers.

To put it another way, if you want a lot of leisure time to listen to music don't become a farmer.  - old Isaan proverb 

Frijid Pink with one of my favourite renditions of the classic traditional folk song, House Of The Rising Son.  Off of their '70 self-titled debut.
 

 

Joan Baez' excellent version of House Of The Rising Son off of her '60 self-titled debut.

 

 

The Supremes did a nice cover in '64 found on their A Bit Of Liverpool LP.
 

 

St. James Infirmary, another great traditional American blues and jazz standard, covered by Dave Van Ronk off of his '82 Your Basic Dave Van Ronk LP.
 

 

Joe Cocker's live take of St. James Infirmary off of his '72 Something To Say LP.

 

 

Some have traced St. James Infirmary back to England as a revised version of The Unfortunate Rake, here performed by Jeremiah Walter.

 

 

Reginald Dwight and Bluesology with their '66 single Everyday I Have The Blues.
 

 

Steamhammer with Junior's Wailing off of their '69 self-titled debut album.

Exactly right @Tippaporn. The most prolific poster seems to be called Tippa.... (<deleted>!! it's you), closely followed by Mutt somebody or other. Both posters should be banned....

Those numbers pale to bannork's when I first got on this thread, July 25, 2017.  But I believe those were the days before he became a farmhand. 

Memories!  My first post in Blasts From The Past.  And I was so hansum back then, too.
