Riders on the Storm is one of my all time favorite songs.

I love 60s music. The strange thing is that, in the 60s, I hated 60s music.
Go figure.

I think I was born in the wrong decade. Love '60's music and '50's cars.

Yeah! And we all thought he was dead, mean time, he was living life in Detroit as a builder. So, Was found some 20 years later and they flew him over to South Africa for a concert. And, for the first time he realised he was a major celebrity. When he got off the plane and saw the limo, he though "I wonder which celebrity was on the plane with us?" Mean time, it was for him!

Watch the doco Searching for Sugerman. Here's the trailer: Searching for Sugar Man Official Trailer #1 (2012) - Documentary HD - YouTube

Yep.

I saw the doco.

He was also featured on 60 Minutes.

Great for surfing the rumors thread......
The Doors - People Are Strange (Remastered Sound) - YouTube

Yes Jim, that certainly is appropriate for the rumors section.

Rumormongers are very strange indeed.

Until I became a m0d I never went over there.

Now I pass by now and again just to see if there is anyone who need this:

Oh Geez Racer! Did you have to show me that? It brings back all those old memories and all the times Otis said ''....I told you not to print that!."

I actually just got to use it here for the very first time, just a few minutes ago. Bagged me a Spammer.

Bam!

Spammers......what a pain.

Still, not as bad as "Jumpers". Haven't seen any Jumpers lately, I think the wrath of Otis has limited their posting. Otis has the green light to go after Jumpers and I think he patrols for them daily?

Mostly, it has been pretty decent around here lately from what I have seen. Not much hostility since the K1 was announced. I do have to wonder what comes next after they start delivery? You guys may get busy, but I sure as hell hope it isn't necessary.

Aww - that's not quite fair. She's had numerous top-ten songs and albums, even in the past decade - all in German-speaking countries, of course.

I think 'One Hit Wonder' is an affectionate term. A lot of my favourite songs fall into that category.

Hmm, I wonder whether Plastic Bertrand had longevity in Belgium ... 😀

Nine albums, including one in 2009, although it appears the first four were Milli Vanilli'ed, and the vocals on "Ça plane pour moi" is actually the producer.
