[Eyes of the World - 1973 syracuse]

Do I get extra points finding one from syracuse 73'????
Takes me back to 18 years old the snow covering the ground, the frozen pine trees and the light glowing from the streetlights

 

[orangefan13]

[song: Europa - Santana]

Must Have, maybe the most underated song ever written.

ok three in a row on Time Out for awhile.

 

[moqui]

Nice little pop tune that instantly transports me back to the 70s.

[Still the One]

based out of Ithaca, I believe

TVZ needs to be represented in this thread.

couldn't agree more . . . here he is with what I believe is the definitive take on the Stones' "Dead Flowers." This is the version that played over the closing credits in "The Big Lebowski." Although the TVZ version is from 1993, the song was originally released on Sticky Fingers in 1971, so I am going to include it here on a technicality.
[song: Dead Flowers]

 

[moqui]

how about a run of British Glam Rock?
I am going to skip over Bowie and Queen, each of whom deserve their own sub threads.

T. Rex, the ones who started it all
[song: Bang a Gong (Get it On)]

 

[moqui]

Mott the Hoople
[song: All the Young Dudes]

 

[moqui]

Slade, much superior to the American knock off Quiet Riot
[song: Mama, Weer All Crazee Now]

 

[moqui]

did I say much superior to Quiet Riot? Make that vastly superior
[song: Cum on Feel the Noize]

 

[moqui]

Sweet
[song: Ballroom Blitz]

 

[moqui]

have to do it . . . Gary Glitter
[song: Rock and Roll, Part 1]

 

[moqui]

and of course Part 2
[song: Rock and Roll, Part 2]

 

[moqui]

Iggy deserves his own run, but for now a couple from the Stooges' Raw Power
[song: Search and Destroy]

 

[moqui]

[song: Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell]

[song: Raw Power]

 

[br801]

based out of Ithaca, I believe

Years before I met her, my ex and her sister dated various members of Orleans. I'm not sure exactly what, but that must say something about my taste in women.

Here's their other big hit, then and now a staple at proms and dances...

[song: Dance With Me]

[s o n g: Europa - Santana]

Now you got it! Thanks for tagging. The one above Carlos is missing the word song with colon.
But yeah I agree, amazing song by Santana.

Great call.

And here's the Flying Burrito Brothers' version of "Wild Horses" with Gram Parsons on vocals, that actually was released before the Stones' version.

[song: Wild Horses]

 

[br801]

The accolades are warranted.

[song: Watch the Sunrise]

 

[br801]

The Byrds need some love.

[song: Chestnut Mare]

 

[br801]

The Kinks need some love.

[song: Celluloid Heroes]

 

[br801]

And the album covers in those days kicked ass, too.

[song: See the Sky About to Rain]

Nick Lowe appears to be about 15 years old here. Brinsley Schwarz and Bob Andrews would go on to back the great Graham Parker.

[song: Surrender to the Rhythm]

Boz Scaggs
[song: Pain of Love]
