My university were big on the original Macintoshes...but I never really got to grips with any of their many flavours of OS/file systems...so I stick to what I know & work best with...

Although it's not cool to say so (AS IF that concerns me...) one of my favorite cover versions of that song was done by Sawyer Brown. It really rocked! 🎸 ♥ 5:15pm
HHVICTOR:

↳ Song: "All Night Stand" by "The Thoughts"

Best rendition!   5:15pm
clarke:

↳ HHVICTOR @5:15

again: give me the original.   5:16pm

We talked last year on little Steven’s cruise

Frank In Queens:

↳ Dungaroos Kipawah @5:13

Ah! We have probably crossed paths on numerous occasions then. I was in there at least weekly from 2000/2001 untll the doors closed. Tuesday night was the constant for us. Before the party at Sin Sin and "after" as well.   5:17pm
clarke: oh hey - what's the TCM Noir tonight?? 5:17pm

HHVICTOR:

OK, sometimes original is below par. Soft Cell's Tainted Love is better than the original imho. 🎸 ♥ 5:17pm

Howdy pal!   5:18pm

We have a sayin up north here... it's in français...
"Chacun Son Truc"... translation:
To each their own!!!
If Elvis could be the "TCB" dude...then all of us lovers of great music can be the "CST" flag-bearers...
;-)   5:19pm
clarke:

↳ HHVICTOR @5:17

with very few exceptions the original is always better. and in the case of Tainted Love - original every time   5:21pm
clarke:

↳ Song: "Open Up Your Door" by "Richard & The Young Lions"

nugget! (lead tambourine!)   5:21pm
Van Winkle ;-):

↳ clarke @5:19

Calling CST on that opinion!!!
I love BOTH...but probably listen to the Soft Cell one more often... 5:23pm
lothianman:

↳ clarke @5:19

Totally agree; there are great covers but without the chicken there ain't no egg 🎸 ♥ 5:24pm
HHVICTOR: I like the original blues of When the Levee Breaks. But Led Zep did a great job as well.   5:25pm
clarke:

↳ lothianman @5:23

i used to think the Kingsmen's Louie Louie was at least equal to Richard Berry's.. but now, i don't think so.   5:25pm
Van Winkle ;-):

↳ lothianman @5:23

...of course...the detail is in the details...
Who is the songwriter as concerns so many original "hits" ...that's often an eye-opener. ♥ 5:25pm
TDK60:

↳ Song: "Get Off Of My Cloud" by "Winky and The Ramses"

Groovy it is that Winky and the rest of 'em dig this tune. But, folks, nobody can smack the skins as hard as Charlie. 5:25pm
lothianman:

↳ HHVICTOR @5:24

Led Zep litterally stole their tunes from the Blues Greats. Reprehensible behavior   5:26pm
clarke:

↳ lothianman @5:25

no problem with that - i do have a problem they put their names (and publishing) on them, tho 🎸 ♥ 5:27pm
HHVICTOR:

↳ lothianman @5:25

Brit bands were blues crazy!   5:27pm
Van Winkle ;-):

↳ lothianman @5:25

No "thieves" as concerns almost all "trad" veins of music ...just homage to the sounds & loves of one's life...is how I prefer to think about it.   ♥ 5:27pm
a-g:

↳ clarke @5:19

I'm intrigued as to what the exceptions are! 5:28pm
lothianman:

↳ Van Winkle ;-) @5:25

Indeed; theoretically they should all be compensated every time their tune is used but unfortunately lots of manipulators out there   5:28pm
Listener Jumpy in Brooklyn: The Hound, the cold-blooded Hound, kept a great C.D. jukebox in his bar, the Lakeside Lounge...   5:29pm

Anna by The Beatles
...thinking.. ♥ 5:29pm

Frank In Queens:

↳ Listener Jumpy in Brooklyn @5:28

Another great juke. 7B and Manitoba's were also great.

And though not NYC, who can forget the great juke box at Maxwell's. These were places where you just put a fiver in and let it roll!

  5:31pm
clarke:

↳ Frank In Queens @5:30

Lakeside Lounge juke!   5:31pm
Van Winkle ;-):

↳ lothianman @5:28

For many creatives (& not just talking songwriters/musicians...) compensation in a fair manner would be the ideal...
BUT history proves otherwise.
However...I'm thinking most creatives are primarily driven by other motivating forces...
But yeah...decent compensation/$$$ would be a nice change. 🎸 ♥ 5:32pm
Frank In Queens:

↳ clarke @5:31

👍   5:32pm
clarke:

↳ clarke @5:31

then again, they always had dj's during the night...no juke.   5:33pm
Van Winkle ;-):

↳ Frank In Queens @5:30

Did the Lakeside Lounge have a "not bad" jukebox...or was it bartenders' choice?   5:33pm
clarke:

↳ Van Winkle ;-) @5:33

their jukebox was 'curated' by The Hound. 🎸 ♥ 5:35pm
Frank In Queens:

↳ Van Winkle ;-) @5:33

Yeah, it was a GREAT juke box.   5:35pm
clarke:

↳ Song: "All The Way With Lenny Kaye"

i really dig lenny's show on Underground Garage - sometimes, i will just go drive around when it's on (but not with these gas prices!) ♥ 5:35pm
patrick321: Wow a forgotten nugget and I really dug it. 🎸 ♥ 5:36pm
StuartR:

↳ Song: "Snowball" by "Patti Smith"

50th Anniversary is cool. BTW: Lenny's Nuggets is in the Best 100 albums of the last 20 years (as of '87) per 'Rolling Stone'   5:37pm
woody: Shit Lenny Kaye on the phonic! Melbourne daylight savings means I gotta rock at 6am for the show now haha   5:37pm
Van Winkle ;-):

↳ clarke @5:33

I also liked the selections by a Scottish bartender at a wee little off Houston place called Tom & Jerry's...
Haven't been back to NYC since '18...so he (or the bar) might be gone... 🎸 ♥ 5:38pm
Uncle Traveling Matt: We really enjoyed the Horses 50th tour. The Television tribute set was a nice surprise.   5:38pm
