Just over half an hour of Focus… the guys who pretty much started the whole Dutch “orchestral rock” thing. At the time, there were maybe only a half-dozen bands in the whole world who were doing music like this, and Focus were arguably the best of them.

This one has actually held me captive for the past couple-three days.
Admission
Okay, we all know that Shania Twain is a Total Hotty.
But ii shames me to admit that although I know who she is, I wouldn’t be able to hum or even name any of her most popular songs, even if you held a gun to my head.
Of course, I’m not exactly in her target market, musically speaking. (Or in any other way, come to think of it.)

Today’s Earworm
You know, whenever I hear someone say nonsense like “Only Black people can sing soul music, dude” I’m tempted to
a.) beat them over the head with my souvenir Janis Joplin mike stand
b.) poke them in the eye with an Eric Clapton guitar pick, or
c.) play them Dave Mason’s We Just Disagree.
…and apart from the lyrics, Mason’s voice and the astounding harmonies, it has one of the best bass lines, ever. All that in just three minutes, and it should have been fifteen because it would save me hitting the replay button so much.

Legendary Fleetwood Mac singer Christine McVie has died at the age of 79 – with the bandmates describing her as ‘truly one-of-a-kind’.

Here’s my favorite Christine Perfect song, which she performed long before she went commercial.
…and the world has become just a little less beautiful.
