Originally posted by Erikka Yep, will def look into that style, Any particular recommendations? As a side note, though I've never really gotten into classical music I recently came across some that has somewhat interested me, Richard Wagner, now excuse this description of it but it seems a bit moodier or heavier? than what I usually thought of for classical music..
Back in the day, early 70's I used to go on Pub crawls with 3 or 4 mates in a Triumph Herald 1360 convertible (very small car for 5 big blokes so it generally had it's top down and 3 of them sat on the boot with their feet on the seats) singing along to David Bowie's Ziggy stardust album at the top of our voices. Had plenty of odd looks but no Police interest thankfully.
(The car was pre-cassette player but I had wired in a battery Blaupunkt that sat nicely in the glovebox.)
Driving around Oxford, (Pub crawls again, in 1971) 6 of us in an Austin A30 (even smaller car) singing "On Ilkly moor bah tat" We took turns to have little Carolyn sat on our laps. Except the driver of course. Sometimes we might have a bit of Thin Lizzy "The boys are back in town or Whiskey in the Jar"
That's not at all weird.
Having a mix tape with Beethoven's Ode to joy on it and singing along in german....when I was on my own......getting there maybe.
Wagner!!! Well even I had to draw the line somewhere.
ps You might need to be an Anglophile to recognise most of the references, and old.
