I saw the musical "Hair" at the Shaftesbury theatre in London late 60's.

Hey I went TWICE .......  two different girlfriends, one of whom I actually married 🙃 ( and divorced 🤩 )

Didn't see you there ......  BUT wowee, wasn't it great at those times !

I auditioned, but my Alopecia was a problem. I sued them on the grounds of discriminatory hairloss.

Yes it was great. We used to go to the Lyceum on a Friday night - an all-nighter, just off the Strand. I think it was 7/6p to get in and that included breakfast! Various flavours of smoking materials available on the way in at extra cost.

Some great bands and the interest on and off stage was very indicative of the times ( to put it politely ).

I really don't know how I survived it all?

For cars of a certain era.

No-one remember the eel pie island gigs? The marquee where you could never get in?

Kingston upon thames tech college gigs -  with Uriah heep, eric clapton, John Mayall etc etc.

OK Just me then and my misguided youth.

 

[Boomer54]

Liked this and the song wasn't bad. 

 

[Boomer54]

Similar laid back vibe.

 

[Boomer54]

Something that goes with Beer O'Clock ,nice Leffe Blonde

 

[Boomer54]

It's a two glass O'Clock hard work polishing that car.

Back in the day I would not have listened to this, but 50 years on, interesting.

Reminds me years ago seeing Amira Willighagen when she was 9 singing Nessum Dorma - knocks your socks off 😱

Speaking for myself of course, there are times when you hear something on the radio or see something on the TV and it leaves an indelible "Holy **** what was that?!" mark on you. Here's one. I have many more. I just need to remember them...

We had one of those moments when we heard something yesterday. It was the cat doing a major crap in the kitchen. The little so and so got kicked out with an ASBO.

I know just what you mean. Countless times I will have been watching something and a tune will be used that catches my attention and immediately I will do a search to find the artist. Found quite a few new artists just that way.

[Boomer54]

This was one.

 

[Boomer54]

Cover of a Leonard Cohen song done in a stunningly under stated manner was another.

 

[Boomer54]

This group caught me, because when I first heard them I thought early 70's then when I looked it was now.
