| 28991 | What song are you listening to? | <span style="font-size: 10pt;">If I had my time machine in full working order I would take you guys back to 1979/1980, the beginning of that most wonderful decade of music, The 80's.</span><div style="font-size: 10pt;"><br></div><div style="font-size: 10pt;">And right from the start a band called "The Korgis" set the stage with a sound that defined the new decade. The Korgis caught everyone's attention in a way that's difficult to explain today. Their sound was influential to the point that I call The Korgis, "the band that punched above their weight class".</div><div style="font-size: 10pt;"><br></div><div style="font-size: 10pt;">Their first hit, "Everybody's Got To Learn Sometimes", is a case in point. Lead singer James Warren's unaffected singing style lays the lyrics down in an unhurried, almost matter-of-fact pace that's distinctive. But it's the orchestration that raises this song to a new standard that other bands wanted to copy at the time. </div><div style="font-size: 10pt;"><br></div><div style="font-size: 10pt;">Even today you can hear the song's ethereal quality, somewhat familiar yet strange at the same time. In my opinion "Everybody's Got To Learn Sometime" is one of those songs that dances right up to the edge of the Realm of the Surreal, but does not cross in.</div><div style="font-size: 10pt;"><br></div><div><span style="font-size: large;">The Korgis - "Everybody's Got To Learn Sometime" - 1980</span></div> <iframe width="420" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/foWmiV-__WU" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe> | eddstarr | Feb 14, 2016 |  |

| 28986 | How was your day? | <blockquote rel="vkimo"><b>vkimo wrote :</b><br><i>Seems like a truck of that size and weight shouldn't be driving on dirt roads.</i><b><br>-end quote</b><br></blockquote>If only it were as easy as that. Unfortunately about 25% of the roads in West Virginia are not much better than that one. But yeah, that one was really bad. It was more like a logging road than a "dirt" road. <b><br></b><img src="http://retro-daze.org/images/smilies/MavLaughOutLoud.gif"> | Vaporman87 | Feb 14, 2016 | |
