I've been waiting and wondering if Basia is ever going to produce another album. It's been years. She was taking some time off. Anyone know anyathing about this? Seems she's disappeared completely. No albums. No tours. No sightings. What the..............!

Oh Yeah....one of my all time favorites, which I had forgotten...thank you! These are all great. Well, not all...but most. I'm very appreciative.

Lots of great ones there....thanks! Keep em coming.

I have a room just off the den that I call my Music Room. It's where I store all my old LP's, my CD Racks, Music Books, Memorobilia, Stereo Equip., etc. I'v always wanted to decorate the walls of the room in framed Classic Rock Album Covers. It looks like I may finally be able to do so. I need some suggestions...with pics if possible. I already have about 40 covers that I want to use. I'll name a few to give you an idea: Layla, Derek And The Dominos Aja, SteelyDan Breakfast In America, Supertramp Down To The Ground, Joy Of Cooking Sild Degrees, Boz Scaggs After Bathing At Baxters, Jefferson Airplane Tea For The Tillerman, Cat Stevens ElDorado,ELO A few by Yes.. Anyway, you get the idea. Any suggestions? Thank you!

Bonnie Raitt had a great song called Good Enough...and it has that refrain repeated at the end.

Man Bazooka, you wasted no time in hitting the nail on the head. Couldn't agree more. That song personified the 60's and early 70's like no other. It was the rallying point for most of young America. A 70's song that also had a big impact on the thinking of us all was Ohio by CSNY. But Dylan was the Man!

Almost forgot a favorite... Daughter, Leave Those Boys Alone...The Blenders

Friends by Buzzy Linhardt (also by Bette Midler) Father and Son...Cat Stevens I'll Always Love My Mama...The Intruders (I Think I'll) Color Him Father....The Winstons Uncle Albert...Paul Mc Cartney/Wings Cousin Dupree...Steely Dan Papa Was A Rolling Stone...Temptations Oh, My Papa...Eddie Fisher Mama....Connie Francis

PS: Those lyrics courtesy of Songfacts...of course.

Here are the lyrics for Leaving On A Jet Plane. In the movie it's sung by John Denver who wrote the song about leaving his wife to go aon a concert tour. However, there're no lyrics saying "it's all right". Lyrics for: Leaving On A Jet Plane I'm ... I'm ... All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go I'm standin' here outside your door I hate to wake you up to say goodbye But the dawn is breakin', it's early morn The taxi's waitin', he's blowin' his horn Already I'm so lonesome I could die So kiss me and smile for me Tell me that you'll wait for me Hold me like you'll never let me go 'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane I don't know when I'll be back again Oh, babe, I hate to go I'm ... There's so many times I've let you down So many times I've played around I'll tell you now, they don't mean a thing Every place I go, I think of you Every song I sing, I sing for you When I come back I'll wear your wedding ring So kiss me and smile for me Tell me that you'll wait for me Hold me like you'll never let me go 'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane I don't know when I'll be back again Oh, babe, I hate to go Now the time has come to leave you One more time, oh, let me kiss you And close your eyes and I'll be on my way Dream about the days to come When I won't have to leave alone About the times that I won't have to say ... Oh, kiss me and smile for me Tell me that you'll wait for me Hold me like you'll never let me go 'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane I don't know when I'll be back again Oh, babe, I hate to go And I'm leaving on a jet plane I don't know when I'll be back again Oh, babe, I hate to go But I'm leaving on a jet plane (Ah ah ah ah) Leaving on a jet plane (Ah ah ah ah) Leaving on a jet plane (Ah ah ah ah) Leaving on a jet plane (Ah ah ah ah) Leaving on a jet plane (Ah ah ah ah) Leaving on a jet plane (Ah ah ah ah) Leaving on a jet plane (Ah ah ah ah) Leaving on a jet plane (Ah ah ah ah) (Leaving) On a jet plane So, waddaya think?

Could it be something from the Paul Hardcastle songbook? Like Rain Forest or Summer Breeze for example?

The Toys "Lover's Concerto"...but I can't recall the Clssical composer. Rockaria by ELO. Rollover Beethoven by ELO. Wish I could be of more help. I'll think on it. Good thread!!

Well, duh! So helpful.

LOL...you guys are so cold. Poor little Avril. Hah.......I love it!!

Mary, from Peter, Paul and Mary?

Let's bow our heads and pay tribute to a few male leads from long ago......... David Ruffin and Eddie Kendricks....Temps. Curtis Mayfield. Levi Stubbs....The Four Tops. Jimmy Beaumont....The Skyliners. Pookie Hudson (Yes, I said Pookie)...The Spaniels. Willie Winfield....The Harptones. Ben E. King.....Drifters. Tony Williams......The Platters Jay Black of Jay and the Americans. Frankie Valli....The Four Seasons. And Hey...I like the guy from Five For Fighting, too.

My Dad liked Big Band, Jazz and Classical. Mom liked Pop and Big Band. I like it all. Now my son digs to Motown, Classic Rock and some Pop (along with his contemporary music like Dave Matthews, et al). I think he's beginning to like some Jazz, too. He can't dance like his old man though. Kid's rhythm is all messed up. LOL!
