Pure emotion wrapped up in words music and the faces of 2 people who have lived and loved.

The bloke in nine inch nails that wrote the song admits it will never be his song again

No you've taken that the wrong way...

I was talking about the change from a Durex machine...(schoolboy snigger)

Nah joshing ya's

His voice is quite amazing, I have a 3xCd collection of his Sun Records output, very early stuff & it has some cracking tunes on it.

The vid of hurt is top notch very very moving.

Apparently over the years he has put out something like a 1000 lp's which is staggering !
Making up since 2007, sometimes it's true...Honest...

Cash is a god- spans the generations- mind seeing him play at glastonb. and the biggest crowd for an afternoon gig. smashing pumpkins are right up there imo.

This is very poignant, given it was recorded just before he died. Very moving

I like this song, originally done by Nine inch nails, one of the first songs I learnt to play ( johnny cash style ) its about Heroine addiction/addict.

:thumbup:

Into 60s 70s and 80s Rock like Zepplin, Floyd, Sabbath, Rush, Yes to name a few but have a very wide musical spectrum and like all music as long as the person / group can actually play / sing unlike some of the Crap that's being pumped out at the moment..

Question for you all....
When did a Band become a group of men / women trying to sing and dance without playing a note on a musical instrument?
to me a band is a group of people making music. Discuss... :idea:
