Tippaporn Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 One of the greatest soul artists of the 60's, Wilson Pickett, performing his 1966 classic, Land Of A Thousand Dances, live in Africa 1971. Ripped from the comments section, "The Wicked Pickett! Early James Brown and Tina Turner...those folks could raise the dead and make 'em do the happy dance!" Are those people having fun or what?!?!? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tippaporn Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Another great performance by Wilson Pickett. And the 1966 classic, Mustang Sally (featuring images of . . . classic Mustangs.

Tippaporn Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 (edited) John Kay & Steppenwolf with a live version of The Pusher. Volume higher, please. Don't Step On The Grass, Sam. The Ostrich . . . loved this song when it came out in 1968. Always waited for the folks to be out of the house so I could play this at 80 decibels.

Tippaporn Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 13 hours ago, bannork said: Andrew, it's a lonely path posters tread on this thread. Lately we have been blessed by Tippaporn , a shooting star who arrived out of the blue with his treasures of the last fifty years or more. A fellow traveller, we can but pray he will not desert his fellow pilgrims on the holy grail of good music. Other visitors drop by for an occasional soiree but who can say when they will visit again? But never mind, Andrew,. We must soldier on because the music stands by itself. Do the trees exist even if no one can see them? Of course they do. As does the music. Notes, melodies and rhythms, the music of the spheres. . Well now, that's very gracious and kind of you to say so, bannork. And if I may return the kindness: you have given me a trove of new material which had gone unnoticed by me even whilst living through the era myself. If I mark your offerings as "like" then assuredly I have downloaded the song. No worries, I will not desert . . . after all, I understand that deserters usually get shot! So much more music to explore from that era. There are many more gems which have certainly been buried by time. We shall do the good and satisfying work of unearthing them for the world to hear once again. Nothing stirs the soul more than music. Music also ensures I get my daily exercise regimen of foot stompin', hip swiveling, finger tapping, imaginary guitar playing, and head nodding. Works the entire body to promote longer life! Thanks for new material, too, Andrew. Every bit is precious to me. And now an apropos song for the occasion (and to live by) . . . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Dwyer Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 One of my earliest “ musical “ memories:This song had taken the country by storm and I arrived at school to find 3 or 4 of my friends sitting on the wall belting out the chorus, I joined in and so did about 20 other kids .Seems like a bit of a “ Glee “ moment [emoji23] but just one of my happiest childhood memories , I was 10 at the time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first song that I remember liking was The Ventures' 1960's hit, Pipeline. But it wasn't until 1964 when the song was already 4 years old. I was a mere 9 years old. I still enjoy the song. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
