Fifty Plus (50+) - proper music for us folks

Enjoy :) http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Foldfortyfives.com%2FTakeMeBackToTheFifties.htm&h=952c1

That was fun... but you may be a hair older than me, or maybe I'm just a west coast kinda guy.

The music of my peoples:

And if I'm being honest

That all sounds good to me! The Beatles, what a phenomenal effect they had on society the world over. Really something, I wonder, could that even happen today?

Thanks for the links.

proper music for us folks

About a year ago I started this thread on the Fifty Plus Forum since it seems I hadn’t heard of many songs recommended by subscribers on other Forums:

Cycling Playlist Exchange (http://www.bikeforums.net/showthread.php?596762-Cycling-Playlist-Exchange&highlight=playlist)

My intention was to have subscribers, particularly from the Fifty Plus Forum put their playlists on their Private Profiles (My Profile) to show off as suggestions for good cycling tunes. Mine are mainly Big Band and Golden Oldies (see My Profile), divided between before and after 1950; the latter group almost all before 1980. Now that’s proper. :D

You know...good music didn't end in the '60's (I know that's sacrilege to some who grew up then).

Check out Jack White in the White Stripes or the Raconteurs. The guy can flat out play.

Wasn't just a west coast thing. Our musical tastes are very similar, and I grew up in a suburb of Philadelphia, PA. I can't believe how young Jorma and Grace looked in that Smothers' Brothers clip! I saw Jorma last January sharing a bill with David Bromberg; what a great show!

Oh yeah...as long as we're being honest:

This is one of my favorite radio shows. They play a nice mix of blues/rockabilly/doowop. (http://kboo.fm/RootsofRockRoll) The old playlist on the site is obviously a more blues oriented show.

I am way to young to be 50...

Here is something I came across today. A classic Lowell George era Little Feat tune played by Gov't Mule with Sonny Landreth sitting in playing slide guitar along with Warren Haynes. Something good to keep in mind.
"The same people you misuse on your way up you might meet up on your way down."

As a west coaster, these guys are my fave:

(the lineup without MM, thank you very much)

A quote from youtube on the Joplin-Piece of My Heart page.


Why can't we have real music like this nowadays? I envy our parents for actually having good artists to listen to when they were young.

A quote from youtube on the Joplin-Piece of My Heart page.

That's funny. My 19 year old son loves the Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Hendrix and the Doors, but he just doesn't understand Janis Joplin. Here's one of my favorite clips:

And how about when Fleetwood Mac was still a ROCK band, not some smarmy pop outfit:

Just blew my mind!:beer:

Here's a few of my favorites.

The Black Keys (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ojcl9dRRDs) are out of Akron, OH and are a fabulous band.

Radiohead (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oFtw8G5nSI4), musician's musicians.

If I am ever stranded on a desert island I hope I've got Steely Dan (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q1ZV4Mx7tw8) for company.

Another great band, Roxy Music (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fFPQa-pEt9c): the essence of cool, barely contained passion.

And of course the hardest working geriatrics in show business, Ladies and Gentlemen The Rolling Stones (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iLddJ1WceHQ)

And how about when Fleetwood Mac was still a ROCK band, not some smarmy pop outfit:

Yes. The original Blues-Rock version of the band when Peter Green and John McVie left John Mayall's Bluesbreakers to join Mick Fleetwood to form the band was the best for me. Isn't it funny how so many bands reach their greatest commercial success when they abandon what really makes them good?

Outstanding!

Here's a neighbor you may know, Chuck Leavell (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0BT2XNADK7g). This guy's had a fabulous career starting at a tender age with Dr. John and moving on to the Allman Bros. while still a teenager. Played for years with the Stones and has played with Government Mule.

You left out Sea Level, Eric Clapton, The Black Crows and many others.:) I've seen him play many times, most recently a couple of years ago, reuniting with Randal Bramblett for sort of a Sea Level reunion. Somewhere I have a picture of him standing with me in front of Ribby from when I met him after he sang the Star Spangled Banner at the start of a stage in the first Tour de Georgia in Macon.
I have always enjoyed his piano playing more than his singing. ;)

At 55, I suppose my musical tastes are just a tad bit eclectic:

Bingo!

Every summer we take a group of boy scouts out of the oppressive South Florida heat and flatlands and go to one boy scout camp or another in the mountains. This year we went to Camp Powhatan near Roanoke,VA. We also went rafting on the New River in West Virginia. I ride in the cargo van with my buddy Ed, and I always put together a different playlist. This year's:...

Hi Garilia,

I perused your extensive playlist and I found we have one song in common, Lido Shuffle by Boz Scaggs, though I have Jambalaya by the Carpenters rather than Hank Williams; I liked their version better. :lol:

Jim

Hi Garilia,

I perused your extensive playlist and I found we have one song in common, Lido Shuffle by Boz Scaggs, though I have Jambalaya by the Carpenters rather than Hank Williams; I liked their version better. :lol:

Jim

hehe, Jim if you like Lido Shuffle by Boz Scaggs, you need to listen to his song "Loan Me a Dime" Duane Allman plays an incredible guitar on that song.

Bingo!

So, like OK. You like the Black Keys, too.

Very nice and interesting playlist. Definitely won't let you nod off.

However, I did almost suffer musical whiplash at "Tighten Up"

Saw them play in 1970 at the National Guard Armory in Augusta, GA.

Mr. Brown and I had a conversation while standing in line for fried chicken at the Wife-Saver in that town.

Otis Redding died way too young.

I'm kinda surprised I don't see any Neil Young, The National or Nine Inch Nails...

OK. Here's my theory/prognosis. A few years ago, I was in the lobby of the assisted living facility wherein my mother-in-law resided. The background music was Big Band. It is my theory that our "background music" when we are living in such places will be the Beatles, AC/DC, Stones, etc., because that's what we grew up with. My wife thinks I'm crazy (insert your own joke here).

Recently, I was walking into our fitness center, here at our 55+ enclave. In the parking lot, I saw a person with a walker and one pulling an oxygen bottle. I was a bit depressed. BUT, once inside, they were playing "Light My Fire" (the long version) over the system. I felt better.

I have aboaut 9700 songs on my iPod. Over half are blues, but there is everything from Big Band, pre-rock 50s pop, classic rock, disco, etc. I download new stuff (for free) from Amazon and iTunes everyweek.

hehe, Jim if you like Lido Shuffle by Boz Scaggs, you need to listen to his song "Loan Me a Dime" Duane Allman plays an incredible guitar on that song.

+ a bazillion! That entire album (http://www.amazon.com/Boz-Scaggs/dp/B000002I9D/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1283817537&sr=1-4) was fantastic, but that song is chock full of goose bumps.

I have very eclectic musical taste and prefer any music with a solid bass line rockand percussion for training to. Led Zeppelin is still my favorite. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HQmmM_qwG4k&ob=av2n

For listening and playing along with, I am a big fan of Jesse Cook. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-dUbcYIZio

So, like OK. You like the Black Keys, too.

Very nice and interesting playlist. Definitely won't let you nod off.

However, I did almost suffer musical whiplash at "Tighten Up"

Saw them play in 1970 at the National Guard Armory in Augusta, GA.

Mr. Brown and I had a conversation while standing in line for fried chicken at the Wife-Saver in that town.

Otis Redding died way too young.

I'm kinda surprised I don't see any Neil Young, The National or Nine Inch Nails...

I do a different playlist every year. One year was heavy on Elvis Costello, Bob Dylan, and Drive-By Truckers. It all depends on what I've been putting on my iPod lately. And I just recently found out that my buddy Ed didn't really know too much about The Who other than their hits and what he hears on CSI! So I see some Who in next year's list. I've got over 18k songs on my iPod, and I still feel it's incomplete.

It was in the playlist. The problem is the original playlist was 333 songs and over 20 hours, but we did over 30 hours of driving, plus 5 hours the day of our whitewater rafting trip, so I interrupted the Powhatan playlist with a Pig Roast playlist for the whitewater, and when the Powhatan list ended I put on a funkier playlist with Prince, James Brown...

I like showing off my eclecticism with a list like that, yet it wasn't that eclectic, it was mostly guitar based music with a bluesy emphasis. I like that I can go from Hank Williams to Motorhead to Prince in one list. Zappa was another year, as was The String Cheese Incident.

Enjoy :) http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Foldfortyfives.com%2FTakeMeBackToTheFifties.htm&h=952c1

Wow ... I was just a kid but that brings back some memories. But now it's like it was from another planet. Where's my old red CCM anyway ?

OK. Here's my theory/prognosis. A few years ago, I was in the lobby of the assisted living facility wherein my mother-in-law resided. The background music was Big Band. It is my theory that our "background music" when we are living in such places will be the Beatles, AC/DC, Stones, etc., because that's what we grew up with.

The music of anyone's youth is what you groove to. It's like the sense of smell. I have noticed this.

My father hated "soul" music, R&B whatever. He was a WW2 guy liked the Big Bands, Tommy Dorsey.

Later we found common ground with Willie Nelson...

I personally dislike most "rap" or "hip hop" especially "gangsta rap" mainly because it's musically pretty backwards and lame. The message sometimes is also a little too morally brutal for my, dare I say, sensitive ears.

My 17 year old son seems to enjoy it. He knows it bugs the living **** out of his old man.

Kind of like my old man wondering what was all that caterwauling that was Led Zeppelin...

My last ITunes down-loads (I wish I were kidding but I'm not):

-Free fallin' by Tom Petty etc.
-Gitana by Shakira
-MMMBop by Hanson
-Bed intruder song by Antoine Dodson
-The lost get found by Britt Nicole
-Something for everybody by DEVO
-CS&N BY CS&N.

Pitiful. It's pitiful. I'll be on Haldol and Aricept in no time. IIRC, I might be on them already. I don't remember.

Anyone here like Karen Carpenter?

I like Karen Carpenter jokes.

What me to post a few? They're not particularly PC...

like Q: What was Karen Carpenter's last meal?
A: Nothing!

That is just wrong ;-)

If Karen Carpenter had eaten Mama Cass' sandwich they'd both be alive! How many people under 50 would even get that one?

Careful there, junior...

Careful there, junior... I'm only under 50 for a couple of more weeks. Please don't tell anyone that I'm posting here.

Please see the "Can cyclists take fruit?" thread.


What is it? NOBODY can wait 'til they're over the hill?

My Dad was a big band fan who didn't care for rock-n-roll. Our common ground was Broadway show tunes. He was okay with me listening to Herb Alpert & the TJB and later Blood, Sweat & Tears and then Chicago.

My mother was a Dean Martin/Mario Lanza kind of listener -- so it surprised me to no end when she professed a liking for Rod Stewart's "Maggie May", though she denied it years later.

cccorlew and ciocc are right there with me, but... don't limit yourselves, guys. The Scorpions started touring in '65, and some of the 80's hair bands could rock with the best of 'em.

Heck, I even have Halestorm and Evanescence on my mp3!

It's harder every year to find the good stuff -- but some still seeps through.

See my preceding post on this thread, in reply to Gailia's playlist:


Hi Garilia,

I perused your extensive playlist and I found we have one song in common, Lido Shuffle by Boz Scaggs, though I have Jambalaya by the Carpenters rather than Hank Williams; I liked their version better. :lol:

Jim

I also have (They Long to Be) Close to You. Pass the Prozac please. :twitchy:

Because climbing it can be difficult?

How do you download from Itunes for free? I thought it costs about a buck a piece?

It's limited. Every Tuesday they have ONE free song and ONE free music video. They are on the music home page. Just scroll down until us see the yellow banner. Amazon has a Free Download newsletter that also comes out on Tuesday. Sometimes as many as 50 free songs, often "samplers" from some indie label. You can also search "free downloads" at Amazon.com.

My Mom and Dad literally hated rock music when I was growing up. I could only play it when they were'nt in listening range. Now I hear all my favorite songs playing in the grocery store and elevators. What the hell happened?

Don't listen to music while on the road. I'd rather hear what is going on around me.
On the trainer it's usually electronica, either older Tangerine Dream, Mother Mallard, and Fripp/Eno or newer Aphex Twin, Lustmord, Thievery Corporation type stuff

I agree about not listening to music while riding or running. I need me ears to help me be alert, and I don't feel comfortable putting myself into a zone. Music usually commands my attention, even instrumental music, I have a hard time relegating it to white noise.

I know Tangerine Dream and have a lot of Fripp, Eno, Fripp/Eno, Roxy Music, King Crimson...I'll have to check out the others you listed. I'm a musical magpie, I collect songs and bands from anywhere.
