More Music Reo Speedwagon



May I thank all you folk out there who kindly view my Blog - I have had quite a few interesting e-mails, texts and a few phone calls regarding my taste in music. Well I have diverse taste in music as this post will show.

In my younger days - the days of the air guitar and my 'Mott The Hoople' hair style, another of my fovourite groups was Reo Speedwagon - Who? Yes they were an American group who, well did it for me at that time - and believe it or not still do. Hi Infidelity was the LP and is regularily played on CD in my Van during my many miles promoting the Ulster Scots Tradition throughout Ulster.

Enjoy;

I Enjoy Most Music



Well, I had a great response to my confession about my ABBA 'The Winner Takes It All' some very interesting e-mails and a few quips on the telephone from what I would describe as closet ABBA fans.

Here is another favourite: In his introduction to the tune / song, Bon Jovi describes this song as a confessional - well the words of the song, particularly the first few verses, would best adequately describe my - looking back on it now - my unsettled time - my 20's and lasted until I was 29! until I met the future Mrs Anderson. I over indulged in all the unnecessary evils that is best left in the past. My transformation has been stark but for the best - every day I get a wee bit stronger!

Enjoy the Song - One of my Classics!

A look Back In Time



Well, from time to time we look back at periods in our lives - perhaps a song, a smell or being in a place at a certain time - somehow a distant memory will come flooding back - well I am not ashamed to admit this, but my favourite POP song of all time is - The Winner Takes It All by ABBA.

Abba were and still are a music phenomenon and although I was a mere 15 when this song came out - it grabbed a hold of me and has had a hold on me since. Being at that age and seeing Agnetha with her blond flowing locks and.... well she was a beautiful woman - and still is.

Now I liked all types of music at that time and still do, nevertheless ABBA still bring a smile to my face and the occasional tear to my eye - but usually if not always a happy memory!

Enjoy the Video!
