  • Lily David, no not taking it seriously pointing out an alternative way and probably the difference in musical tastes from my time forward. Had one Daughter went mad for the Beatles another thought that old hat and went for the Bay City Rollers, still have the long players. (never play them). Sometime catch the retro music on BBC4, in their early days I would have torn my hair out at the antics and music now think it dated and not very daring after all. Tastes change we all have photo's we thought great at the time and now cringe seeing them, some music is like that then we have last night of the Proms and we Brits let our hair down, where are the modernist's then I ask??

    Tongue in cheek Frank.

  • I was actually referring to singing together a Scottish Classic whilst we still could at the time..........however it is irrelevant now because it seems we are still a union so can carry on singing with our Scottish friends image

    I absolutely love Elgar's Pomp and Circumstance (AKA Land of Hope and Glory) and have it on my favourites playlist......alongside other classical music, a bit of opera, boy bands, girl bands, rock music, 60's classics.....very much a mixed bag of music image

  • Ooops OL, just read my comment again.....I meant a bit early cos of New Year.....not the vote. Sorry. 

  • Orchid Lady you should hear the eclectic styles and types of music I play when practicing on the piano, anything goes may be the title of a song but it also describes my selection. I love classics though not all and find many of the 60-70-80 musical styles now becoming classics. Stockton had large immigrant sections from Ireland Scotland and Wales so the parties I played at often included the music of the people which I still play and love. Music has helped my recovery which is now quite rapid, mind it would help if the North Sea weather we are getting would abate whilst the rest of the country has a heat wave. Still sitting in the conservatory with Gold on the radio gazing at the garden and noting all the jobs needing to be done does more good than a thousand pills.

    one of my favourites and perfect for a sunny Sunday morning......had to stop the hoovering when I heard it on the radio this morning image

  • Beautiful, OL image

  • That's a good one too David, I really like Lionel Richie but was so disappointed the other year when we saw him in concert, nowhere near was good as I thought he would be image

  • The hoover was running to "Tales from the Vienna Woods" much more sedate, the lamb is in the oven just had a good basting so it looks as if I am up and running again, good old NHS.
