    Classic rock is just about the only music the comes out of my speakers.
    How did you like the Zeppelin video I posted?

    I am noticing the pattern that many woodworkers listen to older music.....it might be that we are old.....say it isn't so.

    We're not old... We're "Classic".

    Stew,

    That makes me feel better, like a comparison to the wife's 1965 Mustang.

    Exactly, except I feel more like a '68 Z-28. Vroom, Vroom!
    In reality though, I'm probably more like a Nash. LOL

    I dunno. Being a teenager of the 80s, I heard that Motley Crue is now considered classic rock! Boy did that make me feel old! LOL!

    I missed that the first time through! Pretty sweet! I set up Spotify to play hours and hours of Zeppelin when I'm in the shop. Can't get enough!

    Stew, the Led Zeppelin clip was great. you can't have too much of their music. Did I mention that my eldest son is a piper? His pipes have been passed down through my wife's family for longer than anyone knows.

    I'm not great at posting links but there are two from Cold Chisel that bring me to tears every time.

    Flame Trees which is written about Grafton in New South Wales which is my wife's birth place and my spiritual home which I am unlikely to see again.

    Khe San which is about Vietnam Veterans. I was not there myself but many of my mates were.

    Cheers

    I've been listening to a lot of Barbra Streisand lately.

    Go into the world and do well. But more importantly, go into the world and do good.

    Speaking of Vietnam...
    Joe MacKenzie of Clann An Drumma wrote this in honor of his uncle. It was featured in the movie We Were Soldiers.

    Stew, I'll turn into a waterworks if I listen to much more like that. Indescribably heartfelt music.

    By the way, Khe San is so iconic in Australian music that a pub rock band will not be tolerated if they can't cover it on demand. They will end up on the street with guitars and amps on top of them. This is fact. Cheers

    Well this little ditty by Chuck McBerry aught to cheer you up.

    JK.
    She can sing anything well.
    Don't suppose you caught her performance on Johnny Carson when she sang and danced in the top of a huge spike high heal? At the end she jumped up in the air and slid head first through the high heal, out the toe and landed on her feet. It happened so fast my recalection is weak. But it blew me away.

    Here are a couple of videos that you likely have not seen. The first is of the Piano Guys. They filmed this one about four years ago on the top of a desert rock cliff in southern UT. Used a helicopter to lift the baby grand piano to the top. They have some incredible other videos too.

    Nobody has mentioned another favorite genre of mine, Broadway tunes like this one;

    The list of great music from Broadway plays is just too long to try and list, yet my two favorites are Les Miserables and Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.
