Not into electronica but wow! Autobahn indeed -- let's take it to 250 km/hr!

Rush's The Trees from their Chronicles album

Llarry · 10-31-2022, 09:01 AM

Sweet Jane by Velvet Underground -- and the cover by the Cowboy Junkies.

And I'd better stop posting in this thread -- I have insomnia and listen to all kinds of music in the wee hours of the morning. Next up: Classical Chinese music...

^^ Same to you, and all of Bimmerpost!

Here's another scary tune/video.

Directed by John Landis, director of An American Werewolf in London.

When I was in fifth grade in West Texas in music class we had music days on Fridays where kids brought albums in for the 30 minute class.

And then one kid bought his older brothers album in and the teacher played the whole side, hit me for life!

Great song!

It was in the last scene of the movie "Manhunter." Added a lot to the ending imo.

Suds · 10-31-2022, 09:19 PM

One of my favorites from my youth while wearing head phones!
Some rare earth.

Esteban · 10-31-2022, 09:28 PM

Here's the "Manhunter" scene (was searching for it).

DocOfTheDead · 10-31-2022, 09:34 PM

That breakdown at 2:25 is INSANE. I never knew a song could so accurately express how I feel inside all of the time.

Suds · 10-31-2022, 09:48 PM

My all time favorites when I am a little high.
And it is Traffic!

OK, here's one that's a bit out there...

In 1973, when stationed in Okinawa, Japan as a sailor, I discovered Okinawan folk music. Americans were unloved by the Okinawans -- loud, rich, boisterous, etc. But I ventured out, prompted by my interest in the music to some Okinawan bars. In particular the bar owned by or featuring the depicted woman. And, despite not speaking more than a few words of Japanese, I managed to buy a few 45-rpm records of Okinawan music, which are among my treasured possessions. Anyway, I know of no way to get the music from a 45-rpm record to this thread, so a photo will have to suffice.

While the sole American in an otherwise-crowded Okinawan bar, I would try to keep a low profile and nurse a Scotch but on one occasion, an older Okinawan gentleman approached me. I think he was an employee on one of the American bases, so had some English and he asked me if I liked the music, to which I enthusiastically replied that I did. We ended up having a few drinks together, and even (after a few or more drinks) dancing to the music. Great stuff that is a fond memory almost 50 years later.

Wow! More exquisite searching skills! I know her as Seragaki Naeko (in the Japanese fashion of family name first.) I suspect that she is now gone -- she looked to me in 1973 to be older. Of course, everybody looked older to me in 1973! Then again, life expectancy in Okinawa is among the oldest in the world...
