Music Monday

-

It’s another “your choice” week,   And today I am playing  the music of a man who has succeeded as both a solo artist and as a member of a famous quartet.

Yes, today’s post features music you won’t find on Spotify.  Today I am playing the music of Neil Young.

Let’s start with a few from CSNY.

This one was written by Joni Mitchell about a little music festival …

  

And here they are at Farm Aid.


  

This was a solo hit.  





More from Farm Aid



  

And we close it out with “Heart of Gold”

    Robin,

    Nice set of songs. Neil Young isn't my favorite member of CSNY band but he's an interesting choice to listen to on occasion. Thanks for sharing on the dance floor. Do stay warm, safe, and well, my dear. Have a boogietastic week!

    Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young were the pre-incarnation of the Eagles. Their rhythms and tight harmonies are very similar to Eagles. It's hard to believe that almost all of those young hippies are now in their mid-seventies. Ouch!!! I had Neil Young's "Harvest" album and found it very good back in the day. Thanks for this trip down memory lane.

    Such great songs. Love the footage of them playing at Woodstock where they nailed it.

    Neil Young was (and is) a great, whether with Crosby, Stills and Nash or on his own. You have two of my favs here, Heart of Gold and My, My, Hey, Hey. And, of course, Woodstock - I enjoyed the video with all the stills. Walking on the grounds of Woodstock this past June was definitely a highlight of 2021 for me.Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com

Sorry I didn't make it yesterday I have two doctor appointments I had to keep, and one being therapy is a bummer because I come home so tired and painful, but from now on I shall be here the next day so if you have time please look for me on Tuesday if you have time.

Another “your choice” week. How about new music from icons of the 60’s and 70’s? Let’s start with Jimmy Buffett’s posthumous hit, “Bubbles Up”. The Rolling Stones released a new song in 2023, it’s called “Angry”. The surviving Beatles (with some  help from AI) released “Now and Then”. And then Billy Joel …    The AI effects in the video blew me away… A note about the AI effects … the Beatles used it to isolate John’s vocals on an old demo.  Billy Joel had a young man play the piano then superimposed his own face onto the image of the younger man.

Ultimate Blog Party!!!!

thanks to suzanne , I decided to join the party. I got into blogging last year because of Suzanne. I've known her on message boards for awhile, but I've gotten to know her much better since entering the blogosphere. I've also met several others whose blogs I am starting to love, and look forward to meeting even more bloggers now that I've joined the party. So I guess that means I have to introduce myself. I am a single mom from Long Island. My older daughter, Jen, is a college freshman, going to school in New England. Younger daughter, Becca, is a high school junior. I am also an attorney with an insurance company, with offices in Jersey City, NJ, a really "wonderful" commute. I sit on the board of trustees at my synagogue (which means I do a lot of volunteer work there!), and I am active in various fundraisers for the American Cancer Society, currently planning for this year's Relay for Life. I like ot take photos, so you'll see many of them in ...

Saturday 9

  Blame It on the Bossa Nova Welcome to Saturday: 9 . What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love to  answer the questions, however, and here is today's questions! Saturday 9: Blame It on the Bossa Nova (1963) Unfamiliar with this week's tune? Hear it  here . Funny you should mention Eydie.  She’s sort of a relative.  My late mother-in-law always said that she and Eydie were cousins.  Eydie was a Sephardic Jew, as was my mother-in-law, so I have no reason to doubt the connection,  so I guess you can say my kids are related to Eydie,   Eydie and Neil Sedaka were cousins, but I’m not sure if Neil was related to my moth...
