The Beatles (1)

2015-12-142017-09-01 · 5 Comments ·

NOTE: When I first did this series of posts, I had several more songs embedded than I now have. It would seem that Beatles management has gone around asking people to delete the songs. So I only have what’s remaining up there. If the series … Continue reading The Beatles (1)

British Invasion (Beatles to Blues – 3)

2015-12-112016-11-17 ·

First post here: Peter and Gordon were a pop duo whose most well-known song arguably is the Paul McCartney written “A World Without Love.” (Which, according to Asher, nobody wanted.)  While they went on to have some other hits, including the odd but catchy “Lady … Continue reading British Invasion (Beatles to Blues – 3)

Sly and the Family Stone

2015-11-292015-11-29 ·

In the pantheon of rock and soul music, there has never been a band quite like Sly and the Family Stone. Or said better, there was never a band quite like them prior to their existence. In their heyday – roughly 1968 to 1973 – … Continue reading Sly and the Family Stone
