Rolling Stones live at the Max - footage from 1991 I had not previously seen (and an interesting bit of technological innovation, apparently) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XWQll7667uI

I've always been a Stones girl, and that concert is amazing. Makes me want to get up and dance!

Loved it. Thanks Lex  Enjoyed the earlier links too. I especially liked the Lucinda Williams take on a Stones classic.

Burt Bacharach, godfather of lovely easy listening tunes, has died. I may be a rock and roll girl, but he wrote some incomparable songs; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vsGsCvJWEo8

He did indeed. Not generally my preferred listening but you have to admire his musical contribution.

MSG in ‘72 will be one to look out for. Thanks for the heads up Lex.
And there are some other Beck collaborations worth checking out if you scroll down that link.

He did indeed. Not generally my preferred listening but you have to admire his musical contribution. I loved some of his music when I was younger; still like some of it. Dionne Warwick had a lovely voice, and he wrote for her a lot. When I was in my teens I could just as easily listen to Walk on By as I could anything by the The Stones. At that point I was also listening to Frank Sinatra and his contemporaries (via my boyfriend's parents) and classical music, through my family. Also opera and operetta. It was all fair game, apart from country, though my father did sing some country songs in a mostly ironic way.
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.

I mentioned the album above, but have been particularly taken with this track while playing it in the car Dion with Bruce Springsteen and Patty Scialfa - Angel in the Alleyways - enjoy!  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cUSMkdZKo6I... and prompted by hagatha's mention above, expanding the name a little, Dionne Warwick https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=txtcpiqmjNw

Also, Dionne Warwick and Whitney Houston were cousins. What a family, to produce two such amazing singers.

Rolling Stone magazine dubbed him Captain Manyhands because he is so versatile and played so many instruments.

I didn't know about the duets with Judy Collins: a nice little album I may have to get...

Yes indeed: some wonderful material and I had not realised he was another Canadian export!

It's a classic 60's Brit sound. Good music. ..................................... Holy smokes! It's 50 years old! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-0kcet4aPpQ
