RE: Music: Six from the Seventies Part Two - An @slobberchops challenge

in #music6 years ago

Hey @nathen007! Thanks for sharing all these tracks. This starts out about 10 years before I was born hahaha so it's a completely new discovery for me. I'm of course familiar with Bob Marley and the song Play that Funky Music. But I love the Dire Straits song! I'm still listening through it because it's quite long but I really like it! I also think it's hilarious that you wrote a "shitty poem about trains" to win the album hahahaha

Thanks for sharing! Still going through them all but I'm enjoying it. Cheers!

Thank you of actually reading this rambling my friend! Im 52 now and sometimes at my age its nice to look back every once in a while.
Thanks again for a lovely comment and if you have a further 10 minutes to spare, try this Dire Straits track...

This is Mark Knopfler in concert a few years ago. Still a brilliant guitarist.
Why dont you do a post sharing your own favourite music? Id love to hear what everyone else around then world is into!

Hahaha well I enjoyed the rambling. Especially the part about "a Bulgarian dissident named Georgi Markov was stabbed with a poison-tipped umbrella in London." lol what the hell?!? That's crazy.

Listened to both Dire Straits tracks and love them both. It's not the kind of music I grew up listening to but it's similar to what I may have heard my Dad listen to (sorry to age you in that way 🤣). It's reminiscent of driving with my Dad somewhere and him throwing on some of his favorites. I love it.

Not a bad idea to share some of my own favorites! Although I'm gonna have to say it would be wildly different than what you have listed here hahaha I don't know if I could do it by year but maybe era! Like my high-school era or something. I'll make sure to tag you if I go through with it. I've been doing a lot of photography stuff, might be nice to break it up and dive into something else I appreciate.
