I’ve a long history of collection’ Tom--my favorite type of singer (loud, boisterous, over-the-top) and as a result had very few gaps...albeit a couple were wrong vinyl/CD in the cases/jackets but I was happy with the results!  Odd that the first album was missing the song "Some Other Guy" which gave me an ironic chuckle, but by the time song labeling came along at work, I had already ditched two full bags of records with it via my pedal bike ride across the street to Goodwill and I was wayyy too excited doing that as it seems that is THEE big thrill for me these days--dumping vinyl.  His cover tunes are quite cool like ZZ Top's 'I Thank You" which gave me a double take or Black Crowes/Rustix tune....just kidding Otis Redding's tune 'Hard To Handle' as he was respecting the scene at the time choosing  hip songs like devoting most of a live album to the hottest group going at the time none other than the “Now And Then” AI group ragin’ right now with heart-warming tune which is also a great album by Stiff Little Fingers I was formed with as your host here at DU!

Surprise I didn't ask you this, Have you heard the New Beatles Song "Now and Then" and What did you think of it? it's claimed they used AI For John Lennon's voice but if you watch the behind the scenes clip, It was an unfinished cassette recording that Lennon did back in the day and the surviving members of the Beatles were given the tape by Yoko Ono in the 90s (along with "Real Love" and "Free as a Bird") while they finish those other two and released them as singles, they couldn't do anything with "Now and Never" because there was a piano over the vocals. So fast forward in 2022, Peter Jackson suggested to Paul and Ringo that they have modern day technology to get rid of the piano, so all they did really was they got rid of the piano and John Lennon's vocals are the same, while Paul McCartney's voice is from the old recordings of the 60s. So if you have heard the new song, what did you think of it?

If you got most of it done, You can put it up this week in those "WAV" Files or if you want to do them again to save up room for your drive, Sure! (if you want) It's cool your RIP Qualities are changing than they're once before, I do like to hear that Joe Lala track as I've been looking for it for several years! And regarding the New Beatles Song, here's the links to the New Track and Behind the scenes footage (And Note: Someone Gave a Good Observation About This Song, Saying It Feels Force While the Rolling Stones, whom also came out with a new song called "Angry" feels natural, and also they're not making a big deal of the Stones, but they sure are making a big deal for the Beatles, And there's all of these recommendation videos that keep popping up on that song whenever I look up something that's not related to it on Youtube, they're not really "recommended videos" they're just marketing it. Also, they're calling this new song "The Last Beatles Song" Which Sounds Hyper, Give Out Your Thoughts After You Listen to It, Cheers!!!)

This is awesome!! Thank you!

Got to see him in Las Vegas about 15 years ago. Twice. Amazing showman. That was a "bucket list" show and it was everything I had hoped it would be. I have a few of these, but so many of those older albums are so hard to find.
