Four-Eyed Buck,SASS #14795 Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 It's shame that Parkinson's has robbed Linda of her ability to sing. She had such a dynamic voice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixgun Sheridan Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 I miss the days when popular music was actually music. I don't even bother to turn the radio on anymore and just continue to play the same stuff on my hard drive that dates back to the 1970s and 80s. James Ingram was a classic example of someone who actually knew how to write and sing songs, both of which are lost arts today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Music is in the ear of the beholder and we ted to enjoy the music of our formative years, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Four-Eyed Buck,SASS #14795 Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 i agree, UB. I'm also a Big Band Era buff. got that from my Mom, she was a big Harry James fan. probably why I ended up playing trumpet. like broadway stuff,too. Rap and a lot of today's music(?) doesn't appeal to me at all. Give me some good harmonies and lyrics I can understand anytime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Gauntlet , SASS 60619 Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 He was good but I never myself have liked that sentimental ballad stuff. As for Linda Ronstadt, give me her version of Tumbling Dice. Better even than the Stones, and that is saying a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
