I'm Sure I've Linked This Before ...

Yep, Desiree is one serious talent ... and turning into out as beautiful as she is skilled it would appear :tup:

A very talented lady guitarist that, to my shame, I had not heard before . A great blues/jazz fusion style ... a bit of Beck ... a bit of Vaughn ... great stuff:

A favourite band of mine, that I thought had ceased to play long ago, is Magnum. Great compositions, great lyrics and greatly ignored and under-valued by the rock industry pundits.

Here they are in 1985:

and again in 2005:

Fabulous - tho I have confess that my favourite album of theirs is still Magnum II that I got way back in {mumble, mumble, mumble} ... YES, we DID have stereos back then! :lol:

Another new find for me. Apparently these fellows are Greek (why is that the good rock music is not coming from Britain any more?) and they put me in mind of a less rhythm and blues Whitesnake - their singer is really good and makes a great change from the grunting orcish that seems to pass for vocals these days (definitely getting old I fear ):

This one is more Queensryche I reckon:

[yt]R4pRK7IMKR0[/yt]

Oh and can I have the lass from the video sent to my tent please? She looks like she'll break me but some risks are worth taking :lol:

 

[Sukerkin]

This one is certainly for late at night with a bottle of pernod and a jug of ice:

For a little added spice, the front woman here is Tonks from Harry Potter or Osha from Game of Thrones .

 

[Sukerkin]

An excellent thing to find on the YouTubes!

Here is an hour of Renaissance with the incomparable Annie Haslam singing.

It annoys me greatly that this offering has only about 10k views whilst another of some, admittedly impressively endowed, young lady, jiggling her boobs gets 3.5 million views ... we are so doomed culturally .

A rather fine successor to the likes of Joan Jett, perhaps?

 

[Sukerkin]

A fine, fine song showcasing a couple of great singers:

[yt]MI3OgbJS6oc[/yt]

 

[Sukerkin]

The rather splendid Emily Hastings riffing a bit of Mozart .

[Sukerkin]

Why on earth have I not heard of this singer before? She's Dutch, as far as I can make out and she is pretty good:

How things have changed over the past few decades. Drummers never looked this good when I was a lad

[yt]uJp9EgdR_xA&feature=share&list=ULuJp9EgdR_xA[/yt]

This probably means the death of one of my favourite old jokes ...

What do you call a muscle bound idiot who hangs around with musicians? ... The drummer .

 

[Sukerkin]

Some rather nice mood music here:

[yt]NjzLmA3ryGk[/yt]

Oddly enough I am playing LOTRO whilst listening to this .

 

[Sukerkin]

One of my favourite love songs of all time and one of the few genuine love (rather than lust) songs from the pen of David Coverdale:

and it's not even a tall blondy!

 

[Sukerkin]

:chuckles: {Soto voce} Does she mean me? {/soto voce} :lol:

Speaking of which, more pics of that lovely violinist you showed us not too long ago ... :angel:

This one is the one I mean of course:

 

[granfire]

Lol!!!

 

[Sukerkin]

Oh my word, amazing isn't how sometimes you forget how great a song is until you hear it again?

[yt]5sbw4OzoasQ[/yt]

I remember me and a 'dance-floor friend' of mine riffing our air-guitar hearts out to this one many a time . Sadly, both she and the musicians who made this wonderful piece are all gone into the wind which is why perhaps this song makes me a bit teary eyed beyond the nail-on-the-head lyrics. My voice always breaks just a bit when I sing "No colour or religion ever stopped a bullet from a gun!" and "Death is just a heartbeat away" .

 

[Sukerkin]

One of my particular favourite groups. Music that makes you smile and feel good:

[Sukerkin]

And a not so guilty pleasure:

It might 'only' be pop music but boy is it well written :tup:.
