How about we have some choons?

This was prompted by the first verse because of the clouds rolling in:-

Apart from the guitars and drums can anyone tell me what instrument is played during the instrumental bits of this song?:-

@ CD: #1242: Sailing Home: The music sounds electronic to me - electronic bagpipes? Great singer - Piet Veerman.

#1243: The Cats: never heard that one before, or of the group. Great singing. Apparently a Dutch band (with Piet Veerman):

Hiya, I wondered if it was a synthesiser making some sort of accordian sounds?

I didn't know about Sailing Home until someone used the music to accompany a video of a ship going under a bridge and bashing the superstructure off. It was Gary who pointed me to the tune.

One Way Wind was The Cats biggest hit.

From what I've read it seems that Piet Veerman used backing tapes when singing live which was why there were no signs of any musicians in videos.

Just found this, it's a synthesiser:-

This lady has a wonderful voice. This was recorded many, many years after the height of the Seekers fame.

Those  modern "songs", "yabber-yabber-yabber-ya, jabber-jabber-jabber-ja, gabba-gabba-gabba-ga" are absolute garbage. How on earth can they be compared to Judith Durham?

Britain was Booming Musically in the late 68/9/70s 

All but ruling our charts -

But even aged about 13 to 16, These guys songs stood out - Creedence

This band released a string of some of the Best Hits ever written

 2/3 albums with what, a Dozen All-Time Classic singles, at least on them

Unlike loads of the other Hits of that Time, most of theirs never seem to date

HQ sound again

Hmmmmmmmmm ... OK, how do I post large format clip window as seen in this thread?

[cee-dee]

First you choose your video and copy the link. Then on the GUI (above) you click "Video". Then paste the link where shown. Then click "Preview" and choose the size. You can post it and your video will show up at the size you chose.

There is no 'video' button on the 'Rich Text' Tab...

only >>>  text format - code - smiley - link - Image - number/bullet list - Font - spell check.

Using 'link' screws up.

Similar nonsence with image... like screenshot to show whats there. Grrr
