Well at least the Barca boys showed up. GG PP and thanks for simming Z.
Not the biggest U2 fan, but I do like a lot of their catalogue from a particular time. The Joshua Tree for me is an excellent album with almost not bad track. I remember as a kid on Summer vacation with a friend and his family in the Western US and this was the album I was listening to.
Haaland stays awake and Dumbele wakes up. Long may it continue. GG again C and thanks yet again for simming Z.
Wow, Felix has fallen off a cliff this season. GG C and thanks again for simming Z.
I mean seriously Z, WTF is up with FM? Crazy result. Anyway, GG and thanks for simming.
Cheers Timo.
Baena and Pavlovic to FC Barcelona.
I’ll go back to CCR today. Not sure why this one came up, but one of their deeper cuts. Perhaps apt for the current climate here in the States?
I mentioned Swedish artists (though I don’t know any of their tracks) before and Summer, so here’s one that I always think about in the Summer. Looks like James’ Summer vacation.
Arguably my favorite track from The Boss.
I’ll take this. GG buddy and thanks again for simming Z.
Yeah, definitely a close one. GG mate and thanks for simming Z.
And I’m going to cheat today. I forgot to post yesterday and I’ve been listening to this one recently. Love the cover, but know it from the original. Both are excellent and it’s just a classic Summer tune for me. And I still say that in my experience The Who are underrated.
Nice Sharp Objects reference.
I enjoyed it. Watched it with X4L at our place.
This great song played on the radio during a scene.
Yeah, I’m a big fan of Sharp Objects. One of the things I really liked, despite his culpability, was Alan’s setup and how he just sat at home at night listening to whatever. A lot of good music throughout the serious.
That track for some reason reminded me of Monsters of Folk. Now the real monsters of Folk are Fleet Foxes of course, but I remember this album pretty fondly.
Recommended the HBO limited series Sharp Objects to a friend recently. While she watched it I decided to watch it again (for at least the 3rd time, probably 4th). Based on the novel of the same name written by Gillian Flynn. She also wrote Gone Girl which you may remember the film version of. I definitely recommend Sharp Objects if you like mysteries. The cast is excellent too. 8 episodes and done, but if you do watch it make sure you watch it until the final cut as well as through the final credits. Music in the series is good and gets some real focus, Led Zeppelin featuring. However, it was this track from this scene that is my favorite from the series. I instantly knew it was the Everly Brothers, but had never heard the track. Fits the scene/mood at that point in the series perfectly and for me is just another on a long list of great tracks the Everly Brothers have.
First time I heard “Sloop John B” was in 1974. I was in Sweden for the summer and my teenage cousin was away from home so my aunt let me listen to her record collection. She had lots of great stuff.
Growing up, later than that for context, I knew their “hits” more. Then I discovered them a bit more and “Sloop John B” quickly became my favorite. Still plenty of room for me to discover them more.
Nice to see Depeche mode on here
I actually discovered them during Violator and had that full album, but didn’t go past that. Then became friends with someone in college (who I went to High School with but didn’t know very well) and we connected around DM to a degree. So we went to see them on the Devotional tour, both legs. First leg made a big impression on me. I recall listening to 101 a lot in the lead up, but the Devotional tour was quite different. Don’t quote me on this one, but I think part of the below was filmed at the show we were at. Anyway, crazy learning about the band’s state during that tour years later.
