5 for £20

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

HMV (yeah, I know I'm meant to be boycotting them!) have a good 5 CDs for £20 deal on at the minute, so I thought I'd have a score's worth! Checked my Switch Card had been signed this time too!!...

 

The Best Of Jefferson Airplane (got it on now - superb stuff!)

 

 

Bert Jansch - Legend: The Classic Recordings

 

 

Kylie Minogue - Confide In Me (The 'Indie Years' apparently!!)

 

 

The Best Of Olivia Newton-John (thankfully only goes up to about 1979)

 

 

Jethro Tull - Through The Years

 

 

Got a handful of singles too... The Killers, Goldie Lookin' Chain, Sugababes and The Thrills.

Don't get Maroon 5's album. Very disapointed i was. Not very good at all. They all sound the same and there are no happy songs - they are all depressing!!!!!!!!!

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

Believe me, I had no intention of getting the Maroon 5 album, Claire.

 

Though for possibly slightly different reasons.

 

 

[Claire!]

Hmmm, i thought that the singles they brought out for release were good, so i got their album, but it's so dispointing!!!!!

 

I think i am going to treat myself to Durans's greatest hits!!!!!

Which tracks are on the Tull album?

 

I'm also trying to remember which Jefferson Airplane track used to be on the jukebox in the clubhouse. White something or other. Any idea?

[Claire!]

Whitesnake?

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

White Rabbit.

 

Tull has Living In The Past, Wind Up, Warchild, Dharma For One, Acres Wild, Budapest, The Whistler, We Used To Know, Beastie, Locomotive Breath, Rare And Precious Chain, Quizz Kid and Still Loving You Tonight.

...and it's a bloody shame the Jukebox has gone.

 

Apart from having a few dubious CDs in it (modern Now compilations - aaarrggghh!!), it was great to have it there. Think they had the Beatles Blue and Red in there too, if I recall.

 

And a quality Summer in the 60s-type compilation. Probably the one which White Rabbit was on, actually.

Amazon write-up of the Jethro Tull comp...

 

A bizzare collection of tracks, that manages to miss pretty much all the important songs released by Tull over their long career. The only good thing I could think of saying about this album is that the biography told in the enclosed booklet is kind of interesting, amusing and well written.

 

Oh well!

Tull - is that a Best of, Colin?

No Life's A Long Song or Thick As A Brick.

[mala_D]

just seen your post!

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

Very little knowledge of Jethro Tull, Mal.

 

Saw that Living In The Past was on it, and then decided that for £4, I couldn't go too wrong.

 

 

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

Oh, and this is doing my head in...

 

Can someone please tell me which film (fairly recent, I think) has White Rabbit in it!??

 

 

[mala_D]

it's been used in a few films i think.

Didn't they play it in The Doors movie?

Forrest Gump?

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

Do you know what? I was thinking The Doors, but I haven't seen that for about 10 years, so I don't think that's the one I was thinking of.

 

Possibly Forrest Gump too, but again that doesn't ring true.

 

It's something I've seen recently. Aaarggh - this will bug me now!!

 

 

[Laz]

Mal, not sure Thick as a Brick would fit on.

 

No: "Too Old to Rock'n'Roll" either!

 

Bring back the Jukebox!

[Claire!]

I dont know who white rabbit are!!!!!

 

 

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

Films I've watched recently which may or may not have been the film I saw with White Rabbit in it... hmmm, can you tell this one is bugging me now??...

 

Silence Of The Lambs

American Beauty

Almost Famous

Errr...

[Claire!]

I don't know who White Rabbit are!!!!!!!!

[Rob_the_Saint]

Easy Rider (I think)
