Excellent stuff, a blast from the past. Did you see YES at the City Hall recently. They were excellent and Steve Howe gets better and better.

Not sure how but I'll try to upload something I' listening to from the same era.

Hi Steve,

A nice one, No didn't make it to that show unfortunately ,

Fleetwood Mac are a hugely talented group of people who I have a lot of time for , and Lindsey Buckingham is a great guitarist

Hi ALL,

This is one of the lesser know Lindisfarne song but a song full of meaning and thought and well worth a listen

Hi All,

For whatever reasons ? I am right into Lindisfarne at the moment, maybe feeling nostalgic in my old age
so here's another that never really made the charts but to me is still a great track. Remember this is for everybody to post music in and comment on.

Often played as an Encore. One of their best numbers.

How about this one from a similar era and hair length. Great to play on the guitar or keyboard.

Hi Steve,

Excellent choice of music that, just up my street, loads of distorted Hammond organ and gibson guitar
the stuff dreams are made of, on with the Headphones and away you go

Very good. I had thought of playing something like that, but wouldn't be able to as I don't have the hair to go with it. In fact, no hair at all to speak of. Hugh

    Hi Brian

    It's a long time since I've listened to Sky. Brilliant Toccata. I have the classical version stored in the Yamaha.

    Hocus Pocus is lesser know than Sylvia but just as good in my eyes (or ears).

    What a way to spend a Friday evening, brilliant music and a pint of John Smiths.

    I remember the Toccata piece from the '80s but hadn't realised the group was called 'Sky'. A great interpretation for Classical Music lovers. Hugh

    Hi Hugh,

    A lot of good instrumentals come from or have there roots in classical music, while I am not a fan of traditional classical music, I can listen to it played with modern instruments and beefed up a little

    A change of genre here. I found this group a few years ago on YouTube. They're truly amazing. They won't suit everyone's taste but they're on the USB in my car.

    Check out a few of their videos, there are dozens to choose from and full concerts. Definitely worth going to see them if you get a chance.

    Hi Steve,

    That was an absolutely excellent video, what a great group of female singers, the songs a new one on me
    but a great performance and video to match all made for a great video to watch and listen to.
    Thanks for sharing

    Having discovered The Davitt's Band when I was looking for a version of A White Sport Coat to put up, i have listened to some more of their videos and have decided I really like them! Here are a couple more of them.



    And in this one they're using a steel guitar. Love that sound.

    Bill (golfer) is looking for a STYLE to fit Meet Me On The Corner by Lindisfarne.

    If you haven't heard this before, it's a great song!

    Brilliant track and one I tend to play quite often. I use a style from the Country section Mod Bluegrass. (PSR S770) I change the voices to harmonica and a guitar voice. Just don't tell anybody it's from the country section else Alan Hull will haunt me! :shock:
