Yeah, Queen is great, but not as much as Lennon! Also, Abba is one of my faves.
The Beatles or The Rolling Stones or who ? ( or even the Who ? )

Thanks for the recent posts.
I just heard a bit of news regarding a voice from the past. Neil Diamond is out touring again and he will make several stops up here in Canada.

Am given to understand Neil Diamond warms up before each concert with fencing exersizes. Apparently, he was quite good back in college.

Thanks for the posts.
A couple of weeks ago I was in a local store and came across a cute item. It is a Beatle calendar for this year and features photos of the Fab Four from the early days in the " Cavern " and going up to the time of the Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band album.
We're so lucky that the Beatles weren't Beatless 
or Beetles!

Years ago I used to drive a " Whistling Beetle ". Yup it was a air cooled VW, built in 1974 and when got it up to about 70 mph on the highway that old fan was just whistling away.

Thanks for the new post.
Earlier I was listening to the 40's channel on my radio and they played a real cute song. It was the Louis Jordan Group doing " Run Joe ", a very funny and lively number done in the West Indies syle.

--- Thanks for the post Kaynight. Sorry about how you are feeling. If you want to laugh at the passage of time just watch a movie called " The Crew " ( with Richard Dreyfuss, Burt Reynolds etc ). It is a funny film and has a very cute song in it as well. As the end-credits start to roll Joe Peschi ( spelling ? ) sings a great number about " Old Man Time ".

I am known to put in the The Lord of the Rings DVD, just to listen to Annie Lennox sing the closing credits. Her voice is amazing.

--- I'm with you on that one, she is quite talented to be sure.
For my part, and I've seen a lot of acts, the best act in terms of both musicianship and showmanship that I've ever seen is Queen.
This.
