I've just listened to that, Alex. Never heard it before. Very good.

Feedback always appreciated Tommy

Feel free to add some more!

Tommy Toes When: 20 Nov 10 18:18

I love Bob, Alex.

I'm just listening to Three Little Birds at the moment:

How can you not bounce in your chair when listening to this?!

By:

Alex69 When: 20 Nov 10 18:20

Don't worry about a thing, Tommy

By:

Tommy Toes When: 20 Nov 10 18:20

By the way, Brush was the biggest Bob Marley fan I've ever known. I don't think he ever listened to anything other than Bob's music!

By:

Tommy Toes When: 20 Nov 10 18:22

Ha ha! I won't, Alex!

I put this up in the pub last night for my Live Performance of the week for Game:

Jamming by Bob:

Tommy Toes When: 20 Nov 10 18:32

I think that's my favourite song by him.

By:

Tommy Toes When: 20 Nov 10 18:36

Only just been able to see your post, as usual!

Great choice. Especially for Brush.

He was very much of that way of thinking.

By:

Alex69 When: 20 Nov 10 18:41

Jamming.

They don't make them like that nowadays, Tommy. This one's not strictly reggae, but I know they were heavily influenced by reggae...

Oh I like this, Alex! Never heard it before.

By:

Tommy Toes When: 20 Nov 10 18:51

How about a bit of Desmond Dekker and the Isrealites?

Great song!

Very funny Alex!

You can't beat a bit of reggae...listen to Garnet Silk if you like Bob Marley.

By:

Tommy Toes When: 20 Nov 10 20:32

I liked that too, Alex.

By:

Tommy Toes When: 20 Nov 10 20:46

Are we calling this reggae or ska? Either way, it's a great song by the Specials, performing it on TOGWT in '79: A Message To You Rudi

And here's UB40 in '81 singing 'One In Ten' referring to one of Thatcher's nonsenses at the time:

Brush looked very like a thinner Ali Campbell, Alex.

By:

ooo barbara When: 20 Nov 10 20:56

I used to be mad on ub40..shame they morphed into a covers band.

By:

Alex69 When: 20 Nov 10 21:11

Nice one Tommy, Barbara.

'Sometimes I feel I don't exist' - pretty much summed up the plight of millions in the 80s

Still, the music of the people that've been on this thread'll live on far longer than Thatcher ever will

By:

Tommy Toes When: 20 Nov 10 21:15

Yes it will, thank goodness, Alex.

By:

Alex69 When: 20 Nov 10 21:22

For 'the devil', Tommy, read 'Margaret Thatcher & the Tories'

Excellent, Alex - especially the analogy!

Very good evening dani! Your contributions are always very welcome

Great having you both on board Tommy, Dani. Feared this thread might have been a damp squib. Really chuffed with some of the contributions & opinions. This shoud wake the rest of the forum up...

It's definitely best if you name the song and artist when you post, or most people (me included) rarely look at links (unless I'm having a conversation with someone at the time). That way, more people will contribute Alex.

By:

Alex69 When: 20 Nov 10 21:40

The vocal on that Eek A Mouse tune is tremendous

By:

Tommy Toes When: 20 Nov 10 21:44

Liked that, daniellasmincepies - Mr Hitler.

This is a good one: Susan Cadogan - Hurt So Good:

Yes, I remember Double Barrel, by Dave and Ansil Collins when I was a kid too, Dani. Great song
