Ah, the visuals are just icing on the cake...tasty icing...for some really great music. I especially love the ending movement of The Firebird, starting around 7 minutes in. YES used to always open their shows with a couple of old Popeye and Olive Oil cartoons, followed by that movement as a preamble to the band taking the stage. Every time I hear it, I have fond memories of all those great tours of the 80s and 90s. I think I have seen them like 14 times now  |

Although there is a vocal section it's short enough to consider this an instrumental piece.

This will forever make me think of Torvill and Dean at the 1984 Winter Olympics.

My best bud and I discovered that the newly-invented plastic coffee lid from Folgers was a perfect fit over the end of the horn, and made a great mute for playing such songs as Winchester Cathedral... until the day he decided to punch mine while I was playing it, and nearly took out a few teeth in the process. Oh, dear...the memories... |

The Lawrence Welk show! Now that brings back memories. My dad loved to watch this show and had an 8-track tape he played a lot in the car. |

From the TV show "Dark Shadows" probably the only soap I ever really invested in. I was but a wee child when my older sis would come home from school and tune in immediately. I remember Jonathan Frid playing the part of Barnabus Collins, and I remember the character Angelique. Can't name the actress on that one, though. I DO remember it was filmed live, and had numerous hiccups/goofs, in its day. [edit: for all you youngsters, this was still in the days of black and white TV- can you even imagine?] |
