He's already done Stairway to Heaven and rarely repeats artists so might be a while.

Yeah saw the Stairway to Heaven, noted to listen

Not related but i've been watching a couple of Black kids reviewing old music on YouTube ( Twinsthenewtrent ) , pretty funny and rather cool. Although i do wonder if their parents had locked them in a cupboard for 10 years whilst growing up when their posts are ' First time i've heard.... '

 

Those two lad are pure gold. I absolutely love them, especially (as previously mentioned) the main lad's facial expressions. Pure BB King.

My favourite so far

The Sinnerman and Like A Prayer ones are two of my favourites. Particularly Sinnerman.

I hadn't realised that was Nina Simone, two posts about her in a row.

I'd never realised for years just quite what a genius she was. I'd lazily assumed she was just a good singer and hadn't realised what what a musical juggernaut she was. I'm ashamed to admit I'd always pictured a man playing piano on I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel (To Be Free). But she was the real deal, the full package.

I hope everyone's doing their homework and coming prepared to the next meet.

Next week's question: describe and differentiate the socio-economic and political  commentaries of "Regulate" by Warren G and "Informer" by Snow.

I find Rick's stuff a bit disappointing - he just describes what happens in the songs, rather than digging into what's effective about the song/arrangement.

Oh god, sorry Stu I'm just not at your level yet.

No idea

They're becoming pretty regular though, I've only popped into one and that was after most people had gone to bed!
