Jaggernaut Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 (edited) One superb aspect of Youtube is that you can often rediscover songs, tunes and albums from your distant past. Some are like an old friend re-found, some are cringeworthy. Here's one that I always liked: ETA: Lesley Duncan had a smallish but appreciative cult following. She sang backing vocals on Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon." Edited August 18, 2015 by Jaggernaut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rid Skwerr Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 (edited) Favorite Tom Lehrer track? Torn between "Werner von Braun" and "Vatican Rag" myself. Edited to add, just checked up on TL. He's still alive and currently 87 years of age. I also found this wonderful quote - "If, after hearing my songs, just one human being is inspired to say something nasty to a friend, or perhaps to strike a loved one, it will all have been worth the while" Edited August 23, 2015 by Rid Skwerr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cameron mcintosh could do worse than stage a revival of 'tomfoolery' which i saw in London in 1980 or thereabouts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
