...And what is the group you're referring to?

Renee Geyer (Post #309) Having a problem replying with quote so I'm going this way.
Racism is racism and always despicable. No time for the other -isms either--they don't lock them out--they lock you in. My 2 cents. Anyway here's her Website: http://www.reneegeyer.com.au/ and the wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ren%C3%A9e_Geyer Going long with some tunes--she's that good and that varied.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hLQNwlA50r0 << superior backing
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tmazpWrWpdY << sort-of duet w/ Kev Garant q. v.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D0e1rNQxhKM
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u19MSQyxaUI << a very much younger Renee but shows she was hot from the start
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8rL9UQRqWc
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8rL9UQRqWc << male BU singer is Mark Williams q.v.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I01s45kPS6I << ditto
BONUS: 1 each from Mark Williams and Jade MacRae, both Kiwi legends: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RgeySd2WhVM and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bD99yVoEE2g << totally amateur vid but the voice come through

Here's 45+ minutes of this master: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zkywyqmUWH8 << how's that for an album title?

Tiggi Wrote:Fleetwood Mac - Greatest Hits

[Image: 416QNZFVY7L._SL500_AA240_.jpg]

I mentioned that I'd ordered a Peter Green era Best of to Robbie that I work with. Yesterday he handed me a package of nine PG/Fleetwoods CDs, and this is the first of them to get an airing.

Went for this one as it contains Man of The World which I've fallen for in a big way.

Cracking compilation...

...And live at the Beeb at that: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PyHUwnWstDk

Beach Wrote:I'm with Ed on this one Tigger. although I do like some of the later stuff. Probably also because I remember Christine McVie as Christine Perfect in her earlier band, Chicken Shack. Her singing always did more for me than Stevie Nicks' singing did!
There is an album floating around of the original band 'blues' line-up playing 'live' at the Boston Tea Party Club in 1970 on the CASTLE Communication label from 1989 called Fleetwood Mac: The BLUES COLLECTION that I picked up for a few dollars back in the early nineties.

This very disc is available for about the same price he paid (inflation factored in). Talk about a love'm/hate'm or hate'm/love'm group!

It's Cold man Cold! Cool

Interesting player, this Tony Copeland. Here's one aspect: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-_Lm9V5YikM Here's another: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xNcJ25ldHw4 << I believe he plays in Houston, Texas. Tragedy in his background: younger brother murdered, causing Mr. Copeland to drop out of music and drift for a decade--that'll get you the Blues down deep...

Iota Wrote:Barry Adamson - Something Wicked This Way Comes

Now here's something interesting--check his wiki for whom he's worked with/for. I don't know what the WTFFF* to call his music (quite the eclecticist is Mr. Adamson)--let's settle on "BA music". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barry_Adamson Couple of tunes: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hn2RmY7lfks and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1S2YbTy6XmM and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F_pGK3cdI54 << love the album name

This is as post-modern as it gets and still be listenable: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CD3Q060KI28 and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9IA86jZSq8 << then he jams up your expectations by going melodic and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLQshp626t8 << strapping on a Blues (his way, natch)--quotes nicely, doesn't he?
This one is truly odd: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YpKT_eeCVNI << tough to take your eyes away from this
