Favourite soundtrack albums (Edited)
Just wondering if anyone has a favourite non-musical movie soundtrack album? For me, there's nothing to touch Burt Bacharach's soundtrack album from Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. The whole album is on Youtube, one track following another.

A poem by Mick Westwood set to music!
Here's my latest offering, and it's me playing 6 string guitar and singing the vocal, with bass guitar dubbed on top again.
I hasten to add that I definitely sang "cock up", but I know it doesn't sound like it!

I'm hoping to have it ready for open-mic tomorrow evening, but I'm still struggling with the lyrics, and my arthritic fingers won't do what I want them to! -
Dear Freddie would have been celebrating his 75th birthday today, so greatly missed.

I guess I could put this one up, as I have put it up else where, but don't be surprised if you hear me singing in a somewhat deep voice!
It's called War!
I'm sure I could do it better, but it needs a lot of practice, I only set it to music last Thursday, and did the audio recording and put it on YouTube the following day!
I think my open-mic set is going to be all protest songs. This one, and one called Bodge it and Scarper, and probably Blowing in the Wind!

I've been quite busy musically the last few days. I discovered a couple of poems by Mick Westwood, on facebook, and I have his approval to set them to music, which I have done. I've been practicing them a lot, and hope to perform them at the next open-mic on Wednesday, but they're not quite good enough for "general release", on YouTube yet.
Watch this space! -
As members may have heard Abba have a new single and album out but will be appearing as they were , not as they are, by being filmed in special suits and then overlayed with animations of themselves in 1970’s/80’s
Strange 🤔

What a Waste? (Edited)
Reminded in another thread of Ian Dury and the Blockheads, this is a timeless example of how talented they were (and still are, as the Blockheads have continued touring since Dury's death in 2000). Lovely guitar work, both lead and bass; real drumming, soaring sax and great keyboard, all blending into a mellifluous, multi-layered backdrop for Dury's expertly crafted lyrics -- and you can hear every, single, word.
Can't get tired of this.

I do this one in my set at open-mic, but my own arrangement of it! -
I love a song with interesting/clever lyrics and here's one of my favourites. It's an old song, much recorded, but perhaps not that well known. This is a more recent version by Janis Siegel (from The Manhattan Transfer).

You'll almost certainly think it's a load of rubbish, but I put a song, I wrote myself, up on youtube recently, and here it is:

And by the way, I did the first recording playing 6 string guitar and singing the vocal, and then dubbed the base over it, so it's all me" -
I try to keep up with modern day singers but know I must miss a lot of them.

I had never heard of Ivory Layne or her music but this is being played regularly on the radio.

Interesting video -
That has to be one of the most iconic images to ever appear on an album cover.
Good choice! -
I heard a song on tik tok and looked for it on YouTube

It seemed familiar. Sort of old fashioned
