Glad to hear two respected mathematicians entering into the
spirit of this thread. As others have said re some of my links, perhaps you could put your enthusiasm into words. Call me an old fogie, but I associate "funk" with Sly and the family Stone, or perhaps the album I used to own "Rejuvenation" by the Meters. ![]() David PS I would also describe Stevie Wonder's "Boogie on Reggae Woman" as funky. And Miles Davis circa 1970. Last fiddled with by davieddy on 2009-03-12 at 19:59 |

This is my favourite from the Genre.
On relistening, it owes more to the Byrds than the Beatles. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3CADS...1969B7&index=5 David PS http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZUpoFBm_QSw&NR=1 Last fiddled with by davieddy on 2009-03-12 at 22:33 |

We played two classics, both of which were less than successful on their debuts. One was "The Rite Of Spring" (A real bugger to play with its tempo changes) and Brahms 1st Piano Concerto. Of the latter, Clara schumann remarked words to the effect of "I was expecting it to be good but not as goood as that". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3TC2Wkv8IS8&NR=1 |

As Philip Larkin memorably said (approximately):
"Sexual intercourse for me began in 1963 somewhere between the Lady Chatterly trial and the Beatles' first LP" Excluding just about any track on that album, my favourite Beatles number is this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aLjIyaOZgQA Antone want to argue? David |

I'm also not very knowledgable about music, in general, but I know what I like when I see/hear it, and that link sure qualified. Just to throw in my $0.02, here is what I can't get out of my head for the time being: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XVnRzEjpUmE Not sure what they were smokin' when they made that video, but it must have been good. |

Unfortunately the U-Tube clip is unavailable in this wonderful country of ours. We had been forewarned on the news. Meantime, there's a little story attached to this clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4sPPc...eature=related Don't get me started on substance abuse ![]() David Last fiddled with by davieddy on 2009-03-16 at 13:19 |

Stevie Ray Vaughan completely passed under my radar. But.... The other night, I recalled a band I saw at the Marquee Club in London circa 1980. A refreshing change after 3 years of punk. The guitarist had his leg in a cast and was named Vaughan. I couldn't remember their name of the band, or even a song. In desperation I googled Stevie Ray Vaughan. Turned out that he had played with "The Fabulous Thunderbirds" and had an elder brother named Jimmie.
