These..because many people don't know the original version from The Undisputed Truth...and also only know the Temps single version...both stone classics.

Exercise is to the body what reading is to the mind.

"If I hadn't doped, I would never have won". "Doping improves your performance between 5 and 7 per cent, and maybe 10 to 12 per cent when you are in a peak shape.

"Doping isn't addictive but it's an instrument of power: whoever wins attracts the money; for themselves, the team and the sponsors"

I am popping these two in here as they remind me of growing up in a house full of eclectic musical tastes. My mum and dad had the usual Beatles and Elvis along with some fantastic C & W. My sisters were polar opposites, one was totally a new romantic, while the eldest had some very different tastes, probably a by-product of many a night listening to John Peel.

Dean Friedman was immortalised by Half Man half Biscuit in the hilariously titled the Bastard son of Dean Friedman and the artist have been lyrically toing and froing ever since, but amicably by all accounts!

This one was just one of those songs, every time I see Randy Edelman in a film credits I automatically think of my childhood and learning about music!

I know I shouldn't, it's not particularly good, but a guilty singalong pleasure of mine from that era was always Temma Harbour by her...

 <a href="https://www.youtube.com/v/d3o-k0ZB0pU?fs=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" class="bbc_link bbc_flash_disabled new_win">https://www.youtube.com/v/d3o-k0ZB0pU?fs=1</a>

There was just something escapist, light and happy about it, a hint of the possibility of things in the future...

However, on the subject of Return To Forever from earlier, Al Di Meola released a solo double album called Splendido Hotel in around 1980.

Much of it is very intense and technically highly proficient if slightly inaccessable stuff to get into immediately, though perserverance can be rewarding.

One of the more immediately accessible tracks is this, a fun duet with the late Les Paul of the old Al Martino classic....

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/v/1NrNpPPQt4k?fs=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" class="bbc_link bbc_flash_disabled new_win">https://www.youtube.com/v/1NrNpPPQt4k?fs=1</a>


His Elegant Gypsy album from a few years previous is also well worth digging out, serious high quality musicianship. There's plenty of tracks up on Youtube.


Here's another more recent (so not really of this thread but never mind) fun interpretation to give you a gist of his stuff

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/v/t3q_Y_0lhMM?fs=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" class="bbc_link bbc_flash_disabled new_win">https://www.youtube.com/v/t3q_Y_0lhMM?fs=1</a>


But onto more serious things....

Here's a pair from that golden era that often seem very overlooked and forgotten these days, their Breakaway album was sublimely crafted stuff. Some quite beautifully melancholic lyrics.

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/v/u40FqKgeBJA?fs=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" class="bbc_link bbc_flash_disabled new_win">https://www.youtube.com/v/u40FqKgeBJA?fs=1</a>

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/v/hje8Wrb4MF0?fs=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" class="bbc_link bbc_flash_disabled new_win">https://www.youtube.com/v/hje8Wrb4MF0?fs=1</a>


And I'll throw a bit of the late departed Andrew Gold in...

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/v/DNCx7LDv7Ng?fs=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" class="bbc_link bbc_flash_disabled new_win">https://www.youtube.com/v/DNCx7LDv7Ng?fs=1</a>


and of course...
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/v/0kbgjmmr5vw?fs=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" class="bbc_link bbc_flash_disabled new_win">https://www.youtube.com/v/0kbgjmmr5vw?fs=1</a>


Pretty profound stuff in there, Freud would have a field day though Gold denied it was ever about himself.

And another favourite of mine from back in '76,  Magical Shepherd LP by Miroslav Vitous.

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/v/J29-w9O-q-I?fs=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" class="bbc_link bbc_flash_disabled new_win">https://www.youtube.com/v/J29-w9O-q-I?fs=1</a>

I challenge you not to start tapping your feet to that beat.

(This is a bit of strange mix of that track, my LP version has slightly different emphasis on much of the instrumentation, not sure what's going on)

In 1958, Los Indios Trabajares had a huge worldwide hit with this song.

This is my fave interpretation:

There was a time in the late 70's when it was de rigueur soundtrack in winebars...it's still rather good.


And then there's Stevie Winwood...(a bit of a hero of mine)

From this, aged only 16 I think...

I'm all for doping....me. I need it after the last few....efforts at cycling.

It's a beautiful story and accompanied by some fine playing by Thompson. I'm trying to post pieces that I like that aren't the norm that I would post...like this, this is from the norm.

Absolutely, (though I wouldn't really expect to see some primitive like Noel Gallagher twanking his plank in the background of that lineup.. ;D)

Anyway, been listening to some Carole this afternoon. Tapestry is some album, she's some songwriter.

Due in the UK this year I think for some concerts.

Edit: Yep, here .. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-35745178 . She's playing Tapestry in full.

Great shout for Randy Newman.

Oh I know, it was difficult to decide as she's written some great tunes. The album was burnt into my brain back in 71/72 round at the house of my girlfriend of the time.

Anyway, a randomness of fun from my (and Als) early teenage years....and Jam's late teenage ones..

Everyone know's the Reid-Page story and you can see why he was asked..another whose music appears to have  been lost through the passing of time. A great vocalist-whom Aretha thought was with the Beatles and The Stones the best artist to come from the UK back then.

Should be much better known than he is.

Talking about Terry Reid, this was a pretty good cover of one of his songs...

Misheard lyrics time, for too many years I assumed they were singing "all sitting round taking pot after dinner.."

I think Dyan and Frank and Paddy are still singing these days.

Dyan could certainly fair wail.
