OT: The Old, the Obscure, and The Forgotten - Round 2

FWIW, a guy a work saw her in concert a few years back and said she was great.

Yes, I saw an interview with RLJ from 2015 wherein she talked about her newfound sobriety. She is a bit "jazzier" in her recent music efforts.I see she has events scheduled for July,and she also does a show from her home during these pandemic times. Glad for her, and us!

My wife and I enjoyed cruisin' to this song back in the day.

My wife and I still enjoy cruisin' to this song, even though her walker prevents us from cruisin' too far!

Joey Dee and the Starlighters were well known for their hit "The Peppermint Twist", but they also had another lesser hit "Shout" and damn, I loved it:

Here's an overlooked song from a very well-known album. I think it's one of Creedence's best songs.

More than wild! Got tired just watching him. Lap steel guitar at its best.

Some great 70's progressive jazz, such good memories:

 

[Bigboote]

This one was going through my head this morning. It's amazing how apt it is right now.

 

[Ozimoto]

this one is kind of apropos to the current situation as well.

Here's someone that has essentially been forgotten - Mary Wells - and she was arguably MoTown's first superstar:

Not real known by them, but its probably my favorite from these guys, a group that should have been inducted into the RRHOF long, long, ago:

 

[Hope]

those disco synthesizers
those daily tranquilizers

probably my favorite EC song

I think this one counts as obscure. It's featured in a movie I've seen several times (Before I Fall), but it never really jumped out at me until I just watched it again. Now I'm wondering how I didn't notice before. Kinda haunting...in a good way.

This one is not very old, but it is kinda obscure. These people have an amazing repertoire! Various vocalists in many genres.

That's a great song. The original version by the White Stripes. Kasey Chambers does a killer version of it live, I don't think she's recorded it yet though.

You guys got me thinking of the 1920's and 30's kinda stuff. I think these guys did a nice job of creating that mood:

I have been fixated on stuff from Post Modern Jukebox lately. Such good musicians and clever arrangements. Here is one featuring Morgan James doing Aerosmith.

Another PMJ with Haley, Morgan, and Ariana just having more fun than you could dream is possible. Again the arrangement takes the cake.

And here is Ms Reinhart teasing you along. Don't tell me you don't love what she does to you. This is rumored to be the first and only take!

 

[Waquoit]

Did anyone know that Dexy's Midnight Runners had two Number 1 songs in the UK? Come On Eileen of course, but their first one was called "Geno"!

 

[Hoops66]

OK here's a dare. Sing along with Cassidy Janson, but I bet you can't.

Wow! She takes this song from being creepy and even a bit oppressive to downright dreamy.

Hell, I couldn't even "Sing Along With Mitch"!
