aussietime Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 Ive been looking for music with nothing but good cheer but guess it doesnt sell very good cause even the most friendly song seems to have something sad to say.. My favourite music is usually instrumental only and a bit uplifting - I loved Liberace he was ace - but then again Im a person who cries watching Lassie so what can you do? but I wish I could find just one album that had all cheerful songs and song titles on it but this is rare Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aussietime Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 thanks heaps...dont need it all the time but it can be rejuvenating (will go with my rejuvenating day Ive planned with a friend - facial mask, spa and new haircut, etc. she's a beauty therapist and is visiting me) might even go a bit wacky with the hairdo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aussietime Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 then get back to serious music like on this website instead of silly doowop stuff which is sort of like nursery rhyme music Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy K. Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 The "stomping on plywood" sound was also used on the Supreme's "Baby Love" as well....but it was that Joe Meek production which started the plywood thing.If I recall correctly, John Farrar---who later became Olivia Newton John's primary songwriter and guitar player----was also with the Shadows.

JohnO Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 John Farrar joined The Shadows after playing with Marvin Welch Farrar & Co. (or whatever they were formally called) the Shadows off-shoot group which also sang, while the Shadows were on a temporary hiatus in the early 70's. When they reunited around '73 or '74, they had 3 guitarists - Hank Marvin, of course, longtime rhythm guitarist Bruce Welch, and Farrar. I believe there have probably been about 25-30 members of The Shadows over the past 4 and a half decades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
