A later version (comment #6 says it all): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RuisGkFcDXI and from back in the day/As the geezers say: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJtzlCa0lW4 << 40+ years may separate these perfs but the same spirit flows though...You can well believe Ray Anthony had no choice in booking these folks...

I just get burned out on occasion
but I always come back
#347 - Paul McCartney - Maybe I'm Amazed The chart placements are from a Wings live recording 6 years
later. [and] Who needs a damn band anyway?

Anytime I see "Bono" or "U2", I go immediately to an authentic Irish band sans pretension--Black47: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wukfdjJv340 << keeping it local, keeping it real and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0V_ZEzdlteY << both of these may be too political and anthemic for some but see'm in a Dublin venue and become a believer.

Music Head Wrote:#343 - Rolling Stones - Wild Horses - 1971Total knee-slapper, this--a key-banger in a blues band who hates minor chords? That limits him to at most 1/2 dozen songs in the canon. Lawsamercy, child.
Susan Boyle's version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yb3XAP0c8WU << they wrote this song so she could cover it. Period. Paragraph.
Ian Stewart was present for this recording but refused to participate. Reason: the tune involved playing minor piano chords, which he had a loathing for.
I kid you not.

Vocal recorded in one take with Bonnie deciding it couldn't be
better. I agree.
Minor cavil: She pronounces "patronize" incorrectly which changes the meaning completely. PA-tronize (long A) means only to purchase from; PAT-ronize (short A) is to treat with intellectual disprespect, which is the way she means it. This always has bugged me.

Music Head Wrote:#338 - Queen - We Will Rock You - 1977With this band, what else did you expect? A Carpenter's tune as the "B" side?
Two anthems on one single.
