What Are You Listening To At This Moment?

Recommended Posts

I'm at the Edgehill Cafe and presently there's a quartet made up of a xylophone, clarinet/flute, cello and pedal steel guitarist doing chamber music !

I was surprised on several fronts. First of all, I thought the place was closing at 7p but this is a special event...coincidence that I'm here...plus as the xylophonist was walking in....I recognized him as being the drummer to one of Nashville's finest alltime homespun bands. THE NERVE. They were together here in the mid to later 80s and I used to go see them all the time...so we spoke a bit....He also informed me one of the guitarists for THE NERVE, Danny Rhodes, is ill with cancer...:( , but his prognosis is hopeful. Danny was who I knew best in the band and haven't seen him since 1995. I used to stay with him on my visits here back then...so bad news...and good that I get to hear this music....it's excellent.

These guys are GREAT !! Totally professional and well tuned...seasoned as well....

Right now they're doing a 'chamber' version of.....uhh...something off Pet Sounds...it's on the tip of my tongue....

Oh well I'll stop...these posts are so hurriedly looked over...it'll just get buried as I'm talking to myself ...probably. But it was fun typing it....:D

Walk on The Wild Side

Holly came from miami f.l.a.

Hitch-hiked her way across the u.s.a.

Plucked her eyebrows on the way

Shaved her leg and then he was a she

She says, hey babe, take a walk on the wild side

Said, hey honey, take a walk on the wild side

Candy came from out on the island

In the backroom she was everybody’s darling

But she never lost her head

Even when she was given head

She says, hey babe, take a walk on the wild side

Said, hey babe, take a walk on the wild side

And the coloured girls go

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo

Little joe never once gave it away

Everybody had to pay and pay

A hustle here and a hustle there

New york city is the place where they said

Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side

I said hey joe, take a walk on the wild side

Sugar plum fairy came and hit the streets

Lookin’ for soul food and a place to eat

Went to the apollo

You should have seen him go go go

They said, hey sugar, take a walk on the wild side

I said, hey babe, take a walk on the wild side

All right, huh

Jackie is just speeding away

Thought she was james dean for a day

Then I guess she had to crash

Valium would have helped that dash

She said, hey babe, take a walk on the wild side

I said, hey honey, take a walk on the wild side

And the coloured girls say

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo

I thought you were "just curious", but to answer your question, because I happen to do so as I please, and certainly not always.

I am "just curious", that's why I asked. So, why do you post nothing but links to YouTube in this thread? For someone that polices other threads for content it seems like you'd know there's already a thread devoted entirely to YouTube links. I always figured this thread was for people listening to music on CD, vinyl, their iPods, etc.
