Music Memories

Thanks to and eariler blog by tattoedjen my mind has been flooded with music memories.

"Inagodadivida" by Iron Butterfly.  I can remember at a dance in the fifth grade they played this song and it seemed like it went on forever.  It would be like a contest to see who would last through the whole song.  Makes me laugh to think about it.

"Moon Dance" by Van Morrison.  Ahhhh yes .....

"Changes" by David Bowie.  Fell in love with Ziggy Stardust first .... but this song has some serious memories attached.  Loved anything Bowie.

"Stairway to Heaven" by Led Zepplin.  Wow .... this song pretty much dominated my high school years.  It was played over and over again at dances.  Led Zepplin is by far my favorite band of all time.  Hands down.  They knew how to rock.  Robert Plant .... no one else like him.  Lost my virginity to Zepplin.  Think I better put some on ....

"Wish You Were Here" by Pink Floyd.  Next to Zepplin - Pink Floyd was right up there with my all time favorite.  I can remember when they used to have laser light shows at the Griffith Observatory Planetarium back in the mid to late 70's.  Pink Floyd was the chosen music for this show.  We partied hard in those days and used to love to drop some acid or do some lines/smoke some pot and sit back and enjoy the show.  What a rush ....

"Baba O'Riley" by the Who.  Next to Zepplin & Pink Floyd .... what can I say.  This song represents so much to me.  It brings home hard the happenings of the time.  The Who ... CLASSIC .... nothing more needs to be said.

"California Girls" by the Beach Boys.  Growing up in Southern California you couldn't help but love the Beach Boys.  We had "Surfin' Safari" dances in High School and of course the Beach Boys dominated the music choice of the night.  This is my favorite tune of theirs although it really is hard to chose one to call my favorite.  So wasted at their concert that all I can remember is pink and blue lights.  Think I had fun though.

"Lola" by the Kinks.  "She walked up to me and she asked me to dance. I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice she said Lola .... Lo Lo Lo Lo Lola .... "  My dog Lola is named for this song.  The Kinks would be proud.  Smiley   Loved just about anything the Kinks put out.

"School's Out" by Alice Cooper.  By far one of the strangest concerts I've been to.  Also one of the most theatrical.  Boy would we rock this song come June ..... Alice will always have a place in my heart!  Anyone remember "Cold Ethel"?

"Hard Days Night" by The Beatles.  Anything and everthing Beatles.  I must have seen this movie a billion times.  The Beatles.  I loved Paul (back in the day) .... how about you?  Of couse ... John became my all time Beatle hero.  He was a genius.

Geez .... I know I could go on forever.  So I won't.  These were just a minor few bands/songs that were a major part of my growing up.  These have particular memories for one reason or another which makes them special for me.  But again there are soooo many more ... to say that these were it would be soooo wrong.  These just are the ones that popped in my head today at this moment in time.  As I am trying to end this more songs just keep popping in my head so I am ending it now.  Before I sit here for hours.

Thanks for putting up with me here.  

Peace.  J.








 
 
 

   
Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb

Hello
Is there anybody in there
Just nod if you can hear me
Is there anyone at home
Come on now
I hear your feeling down
I can ease your pain
Get you on your feet again
Relax

I'll need some information first
Just the basic facts
Can you show me where it hurts


There is no pain, you are receding
A distant ship smoke on the horizon
You are only coming through in waves
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying
When I was a child I had a fever
My hands felt just like two balloons
Now I've got that feeling once again
I can't explain, you would not understand
This is not how I am
I have become comfortably numb
I have become comfortably numb


O.k.
Just a little pin prick
There'll be no more aaaaah!
But you may feel a little sick
Can you stand up
I do believe its working good
That'll keep you going through the show
Come on it's time to go


There is no pain you are receding
A distant ship smoke on the horizon

You are only coming through in waves
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying
When I was a child
I caught a fleeting glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye
I turned to look but it was gone
I cannot put my finger on it now
This child is grown
The dream is gone
And I have become
Comfortably Numb

 
 
   
 

new concert to add on my list
If all goes well (and I believe it has), I will be taking my mother to see David Gilmour perform at Radio City Music Hall on the 4th of April! :) I am so stoked to finally see him perform. He's got a new solo album coming on his sixtieth birthday this March.

In other news, a bandmate of mine left on the plane today to work in Washington State. A few of us went to get and pizza and drinks. Tonight now I have to do some reading for Greek and Roman mythology class that I'm working on right now. It's a weekend class that happens every two weeks. Should be very interesting.

Teenage song of the centery

"there is no need for a quote when such a song is presenter"

seriously, i want to find the person who hates dis song. the lyrics are phenomenal, the guitar riffs are awsome,everytime i hear this song i feel alive!

weather pink Floyd, or Korn, it as a feel to it like no other.

[Part 1]
Daddy's flown across the ocean
Leaving just a memory
A snapshot in the family album
Daddy, what else did ya leave for me?
Daddy, whatcha leave behind for me?
All in all it was just a brick in the wall
All in all it was all just bricks in the wall

[Part 2]
We don't need no education
We don't need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teachers, leave them kids alone
Hey, Teachers, leave those kids alone

All in all its just another brick in the wall
All in all you're just another brick in the wall

We don't need no education
We don't need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teachers, leave them kids alone
Hey, Teachers, leave those kids alone

All in all you're just another brick in the wall
All in all you're just another brick in the wall
[Guitar]

[Part 3]
I don't need no arms around me
I don't need no drugs to calm me
I have seen the writing on the wall
Don't think I need anything at all
No, don't think I need anything at all
All in all it was all just bricks in the wall
All in all you were all just bricks in the wall

Cumon seriously, how can you not love this music.

NOW GO AND LISTEN TO IT......NOW!you wont regret it
