Now Playing....

And some songs for politicians seeking election:

Three Dog Night: "Liar"


Eagles: "Lyin' Eyes"


The Knickerboxes: "Lies, Lies"

(OK. yes, they were another would-be Beatles clone.)

and Rolling Stones : "Lies"


Anyone would think I was cynical about promises made by politicians......

 

That reminded me of this from my youth, a song which epitomises so many parties I attended back then.

Epica - The Divine Conspiracy

 

Marillion - With Friends From the Orchestra

The CD that came free with the current issue of PROG

 

Fish - Vigil in the Wilderness of Mirrors

 

What was on it?

 

Another blank one presumably.

 

Oh very progressive...
I went to see a Doors tribute band called ‘About The Doors’ on Thursday.
I must say that they were excellent, and I’d recommend them highly.
They did a lot of my favourite songs: The End, When the music’s over, Peace Frog, etc. Also a fine version of Roadhouse Blues.

Here’s the original version of the latter:

 

Bernard Cribbins - Right Said Fred

 

Fish - Raingods With Zippos

 

Fleesh - Blind Curve

 

Fleesh - Script for a Jester's Tear

 

Pink Floyd - One of These Days (live 1994)

 

Soul Gasoline - Dave Rodgers
