Any 80's likes?
I played some Pseudo Echo, an Aussie band formed in 82 I think, last night with a scotch, memories came flooding back from a girl who was into them and we enjoyed ourselves in some leagues clubs and pubs. She saw them in Launceston

The Roland keyboard copped a caning in the clubs. More hits than my old Holden HD's windscreen

RIP Richard Tandy.

Bloody awesome. Jeff Lynne was more than ELO's front man he was a singer, composer for many bands and soloists.

I wonder if his mutton chops were real?

RIP Richard Tandy.

Geez I didn't know he had died. Best known for telephone line.

And on the same bill that night apart from Jeff Lynne was Agnetha Faltskog from ABBA.
Reckon i would have wet myself that night if i was there with two of my all time favourite artists live.

Yes Richard passed away in May this year, had been ill for a while and had to cancel some engagements he had with Jeff Lynne over the last couple of years.

Love this clip from a very early Sweet song, featuring a very young and beautiful Olivia Newton John.

Bloody tragic, I'm going to listen to ELO now all arvo. I just bought a great set of Sennheiser headphones that are unbelievable, works great with my new mobile phone

Is that the Sweet

 

[horrie hastings]

One of the best one hit wonders and also featured in The Man From Hong Kong

Is that the Sweet

Yes. I like The Sweet but mainly like this more with the appearance of Olivia in the clip.

 

[Nutz]

Yes.

Where did you dig that up from, gee that is a young Olivia. My heart broke when she left

I found the clip on you tube.
Was playing music yesterday and Long Live Love by Olivia played, got a bit of a tear in my eye, then i had a bit of laugh because i remember her saying that she had a bit of a dummy spit at the time of the song because the UK public had selected that song for her to sing in the 1974 Eurovision song contest and she reckons there were better songs she could have sung, as much as i love Olivia i don't think anyone would have beaten the then almost unknown ABBA.

I still can't believe she is gone, there is a hole still in my heart, she was the most beautiful and selfless woman in the world.

My favourite Olivia song.

Great stuff. If you were to put all the one hit wonders from the 60-70-80's in a bucket and take away the lyrics, melodies and beats there would be nothing much left for latter day stuff to create, hence why we have rap.
