Making tex mex for dinner and had the cricket on with the volume down and the IPOD playing this came up so turned the volume up louder

They were songs i grew up with MR and though now some of them are obscure now they got plenty of air play back in the day and they have never grown out of favour with me and some can take me back to a nice safe place in time ( or should i say listening to them made me feel in a safer place )

And that’s the power and beauty of music isn’t it?

As I’m watching the cricket I thought I’d play this.

Solid Rock - Goanna

A song I loved the first time I heard it. Given the goings on in that other thread it may appear I am posting because of the lyrics, but it’s actually not. I loved it because of the music. I also like quite a lot of Shane Howard’s other stuff too.

Great song

Well, they were standin' on the shore one day
Saw the white sails in the sun
Wasn't long before they felt the sting
White man, white law, white gun
Don't tell me that it's justified
'Cause somewhere, someone lied

Currently about number 22 in the JJJ Hottest 100 and a lot of pop and thankfully not too much rap crap at this stage.
