i have heard this before but not for a good long while...i hope this little post helped rest your mind off the hernandez saga and doing unmentionable things to your milkman! lol

i love hearing peoples tastes in music....and like i put in the post you can just stumble across something thats a couple of years old or decades and think wow how have i never heard that its an ongoing adventure well for me anyway:)

I posted a similar thread about 6-7 years ago on here (when I was pure, accepting and tolerant). It went on receive numerous replies, tapping into many people's favourite 2nd passion.
As my brain cells dwindle, abused by wotsits, crème de month and curly wurlys, I cant for the life of me remember the moody old git who suggested them. but suggest them he did. I recall he said he'd seen them live (CCR).
So I googled/YouTube'd and eventually became hooked. Their catalogue is phenomenal.
I'm forever grateful to him for "virtually" introducing me to them. Whoever he was.

i can beat that...stumbling across a video a lonnnng time ago of a band called boney m and song called "ma baker" the guys dancing was wild lol but i cannot stop singing ma ma ma baker she taught her four sons...got an annoyingly addictive hook to it.

Youtube: Cold Chisel - When The War Is Over (Official Video) Pure class. If you don't know about this Australian band, no sweat. Ian Moss the singer/guitarist isn't even the lead singer. Steve Prestwich the drummer, sitting down with the 'shaker' wrote this. Steve very sadly died early 2011. The greatest drummer in my opinion and I've heard and played with a few. Check out a very young Steve Prestwich on Cold Chisel 'Forever Now' Okay, so he's playing a table in the video...

Yeah I think you'd like them, some/most of the songs are just brilliant. When The War Is Over (studio) Khe Sanh, Forever Now, Flame Trees, Choir Girl, Bow River, Ita, Four Walls Cheap Wine... It's endless. If you like guitar playing, Check out Youtube: Cold Chisel - Georgia (Official Video) Just wait for the solo, Mossy is just unbelievable and this country's airwaves never bothered with them. because they thought Australian bands were all about Men at Work Down Under, pathetic. Mossy's Strat sound not unlike the great Rory Gallagher.
