I decided to take a very brief break from blogging about the meaty juiciness that is my life and enjoy the late springtime weather that has recently cropped up here in Connecticut. So for today's post, I leave you a brief selection of videos.
One is from the early 90's band Living Colour. I happened to pick up their c.d. entitled "Stain" a few months ago, and while listening to it in my car this week, I came across this particular track that in today's "enlightened" climate, is about the best song out there that doesn't preach as it makes a point. Please note, there might be an objectionable word or two near the tail end of the song.
If Living Colour isn't your cup of tea, then I have for you one of my favorite summer time songs from the 80's band, The Hooters. No need to tell you the title as it has made a few appearance on my other blog over the years.
Have a fantastic weekend and I will return not quite bright eyed or bushy tailed on Monday, with a short post recapping the recently finished 2014 A-Z Blogging Challenge.

I hope you enjoy your break in the Spring time weather!
ReplyDeleteJoey: I most definitely will. The forecast for the weekend just about begs for one to sit outside and become one with the world.
ReplyDeleteI loved Living Colour! No one seems to remember them. Thanks for the way back machine :)
ReplyDeleteM: You're very welcome. I can definitely do the wayback machine a lot better than any radio station. :D
ReplyDeleteGo enjoy a break! I've been online sporadically the past few days and next weekend I'm just going to enjoy.
ReplyDeleteSaw Living Colour on That Metal Show recently. The dudes have been around a long time.
Alex: I intend to.
ReplyDeleteThe original bassist Doug Wimbish has family here in CT and has done a few shows in the past couple of years.
Love that version of Boys of Summer.
ReplyDeleteLynn: It simply blew me away when I'd first heard it about four years ago. It's how the song should be played, not uptempo like the original.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy that break! We all need a breather from time to time, especially in the name of good weather. I actually don't remember Living Colour. What rock did I live under in the 90s?
ReplyDeleteABFtS: I definitely am enjoying this break.
ReplyDeleteThey actually sued the Waynon Brothers for copyright infringement early in their career, which is the show is known as "In Living Colour".
I would say a very soft rock. :D
Congrats on finishing the challenge. I hope you're enjoying your well-deserved blog break. I'm just returning from mine and I'm considering a Reflections post but I'm still so sleepy lol.
ReplyDeleteI think I remember Living Colour - "Cult Of Personality", right? I dug that song when I was 10 or 11.
Chris: Thanks and I am.
ReplyDelete10 or 11? Now you're making me feel really, really old. :D
Yes, "Cult of Personality" was their biggest hit. In fact, they just recently released a remastered version of their debut c.d. "Vivid", complete with a few bonus tracks.
