Somehow I'd never listened to Roy Wood's Boulders album until tonight. I suspect I will be making up for that in the future.

My dad like ELO. He also had a fair knowledge of the precursors to ELO, including Roy Wood's influence from The Move. But I've found that overanalysing it isn't the best approach. Just listening to it, and listening generally to any reaction seems to be best.


Here's Jeff Lynne's doin' disco (mid ELO I think) that I picked up in a thrift store.

I've been listening too much lately to songs that make me sad, so this one always picks me up:

I used to hang out with these guys back when I used to do things like hang out... wink

Some "Come on, Eileen" reminiscing in the Shoutbox inevitably made me think of Dexys Midnight Runners' quirky but compelling cover of Van Morrison's "Jackie Wilson Said".

Eddie and the Cruisers was a great movie for 'my generation' with some classic music.



Tender Years and Season in Hell are also pretty awesome, from that soundtrack.

(The dude in the video is the actor from the movie, and not even remotely the actual singer...)

I wish I knew how to embed like all of you cool kids do but I can't so I'm just going to post this link.

I listen to so many Golden Oldie stations that I sometimes think I must have already heard every single old song out there and that there's nothing new for me to discover....

So when I hear a decades old song that I a) have never heard before; and b) instantly love, it's a bit like finding a mint condition of Adventure Comics #247 in a back issue bin filled with thousands of terrible 90s Image comics.

Such is how much I've fallen for this 1970 song by Dory Previn, an artist I'd never heard of before either.

But since hearing it in the final scene of the latest episode of Scream Queens about an hour ago, I must have listened to this song about 20 times! I. LOVE. IT.

The song has a fascinating background too! Google it if you're interested.

Here it is -

This was the previous old song that I only recently discovered and became immediately obsessed with.

The first time I heard it was about a week ago when it came on the radio as I was parking my car and I don't feel weird admitting that I had burst into tears by the end of it.

The song perfectly encapsulates my own emotional struggles at the moment.

It's by Roy Clark, who's probably well-known by most of the Americans here, but who is an unknown quantity to most Australians:

Not embedding, because the cover image might be disturbing to sensitive souls:
