Mandi, Babs
Will Uncle Vic consider requests for Jethro Tull on Thursday, or should we ask if Bob Harris is available?

Kirsty,
You can't go wrong with Prokofiev.





Is an MP3 a type of car?

Hey Adam over 200 posts last time out - pretty grim. I warned earleir in the week about all the chatting and being nice to each other. Obviously my warnings fell on deaf ears.

This week I am going to be the champion of 2 or 3 tracks suggested for each show.

Honest.......

Nobody told me you could get beer, chips and mayonnaise in Amsterdam. What a wasted trip.

Hey glen - if all you get on a trip to Amsterdam is beer, chips and mayo, you are a lucky boy...

MONDAY:

"Be Good Johnny" by Men at Work includes a few "nah"s.

"No Dry Ice or Flying Pigs" - A dig at stadium bands like Pink Floyd and Queen by The Leighton Buzzards (who later became Modern Romance).

"Accentuate The Positive (Eliminate the Negative) - Bing Crosby.

"Let Your Yeah Be Yeah" - Jimmy Cliff.

TUESDAY:

Bryan: Hope you can dig out that old tape you have of the theme song to "The High Life" by Alan Cumming and Forbes Masson...Cumming's character was even called Sebastian Flight (not as good a name as (Mussolini in micromesh) Shona Spurtle though). Surely one of the funniest TV series ever made.

Tuesday must feature something from The Byrds, mebbe 8 miles high (tho something tells me this was mental or chemical flying). Expecting to Fly from the Buffalo Springfield would be good, or Birds by Neil Young. And possibly Drop the Pilot from Joan Armatrading? Or I'm Raving by Scooter (Put on my raving shoes and I boarded a plane. Touched down in the land where the skies were blue, in the middle of the pouring rain.)

8 Miles High would be great. I also thought the Roxy cover was excellent.

I would love to hear a track by Will Oldham which I just cannot track down called One With the Birds, I have a live cover version by David Gray and when I have seen him perform it I think it is a great track - but I have never heard the original.

Norrie, Renfrew

Tuesday -
Elusive Butterfly (with the Four Tops)

Thursday -
Try To Remember

Joe
Linlithgow

joe-k-brown,
I've been told when Joni Mitchell sings 'This Flight Tonight' on stage she introduces it as a Nazareth song.
How cool is that?

However cool it is - Manny Charlton ws an old pal of my cousin who was lead guitarist in Streetheart in Canada - massive stadium rock group over there. They are still going strong in the current 'revival' stuff going the rounds. Jini's and Naz'z are both great tracks!

Big up the Scots bands, I say!

Vic?

Obviously I meant it to be Jini.

Monday - No Limits, 2 Unlimited.
Sorry, couldn't resist

Tuesday - Learn to Fly, Foo Fighters
Any FF song would fit as the band is named after a type of UFO

Wednesday - Club Tropicana, Wham
(I've no shame)

Thursday - 5am in Amsterdam, Michelle Shocked.


Scotch G, I remember Peter and the Wolf from school music lessons but had forgotten how good it was. Thanks for the tip :)

Kirsty,
The clarinet representing the cat always makes me smile.

Check out the Lieutenant Kije Suite and his Classical Symphony (No.1)

Morning all! Imagine saltspringsherri encouraging me! Some great selections above and The Flyer by Nanci is a great track Joe, what about Outbound Plane by her as well. Also Long Time Comin' by Springsteen?

Could I make an appeal for nothing by the Blue Aeroplanes!! Truly one of the worst bands I have ever seen we only went to see the Boo Hewerdine and Neil McColl band The Bible supporting. However I remain scarred by the dancer so maybe the music was not that bad! Someone will let me know!



Cheers

Norrie

Norrie - I had never heard of the Blue Aeroplanes! Unfortunately I now have...

JimfraeErskine you beat me to it requesting Martyn Bennett's Nae Regrets. A great track about a child who no longer wishes to stay with their granny who sells illegal booze up the close. Starts quietly building to heavy beats and brilliant sound, simply superb! and its sung in Scots.

Ah'll no bide wi ma granny nae mair
Ah'll no bide wi ma granny nae mair
She skelps ma face and she pulls aa ma hair
an ah'll no bide wae ma granny nae mair

Ah'll awa hame tae ma mither, ah wull
Ah'll awa hame tae ma mither, ah wull

She keeps a wee shop at the tap o the ha'
And she sells a wee drappy at sixpence a shot

No, no regrets. No, no regrets

Yeah I do think Nae Regrets would be a brilliant choice for Monday - remember the response last time a Bennett track was played on the show? Fantastic man and great music. A friend of mine worked with him and was involved in the tribute concert after MB died. By all accounts a really nice guy and a superbly talented musician.

MONDAY

'Ain't No Good Life' - Lynyrd Skynyrd

For Ronnie Van Zant, who went to heaven on Thursday, 20.10.1977

Gone, but not forgotten.

Scotch - Another great Lynyrd Skynyrd shout would be Freebird, for Tuesday's flying theme.

Jim,
I'm not so sure. The theme is flying, after all. Not crashing.
Having said that;

TUESDAY

'Clockwork Creep' - 10cc

(The lyrics refer to a plane).

EC, have you abandoned us?!

Maria in Stirling

p.s. away down south again so will see you all next week!

Jim,
Apologies for being so offhand. Freebird is a great shout, but maybe the timing is inappropriate. Which makes me a hypocrite for requesting 10cc
How did I get myself into this hole?!?

On Tuesday night's flight plan I would love to hear Mary Hopkin The Sparrow.
It was on the b-side of her single Goodbye.
A simply beautiful tune and sung with
the voice of a angel. I remember playing it over and over again as a young child watching the Apple label spin round.

Hoppolocus great shout for Leader of the Pack - Shangri La's. It's on my list also.

Scotch - I think as long as the music is great that's all that matters. Freebird is a superb track and fits the bill nicely. It was perhaps the Tops' best ever hit and would grace any playlist.

Jan From Ruglin - did't you get dizzy doing that?

Wednesday 22nd October:

The Sweet's Blockbuster has a siren on it.

2 Clash songs have sirens

White Riot

The Call Up - great track with sirens and marcjing boot effects

JimFraeErskine - yes I did get dizzy watching the apple spin! Probably explains why I am still dizzy today...LOL

I usually dook for mine...

Tuesday - I have a fairly long list of great tracks - so I better email that in! In the meantime....

Flying Burrito Brothers – Wild Horses
Black (Colin Vearncombe) with Sam Young - Fly Up To The Moon
Steven Lindsay - Birdsong

Hope everyone had a great weekend and I aplogise for ruining Jim's!

Jim,
You are, of course, correct. I'm just being a twanger.
I need someone to blame, however, and I nominate Uncle Vic. He can redeem himself by playing some Tull on Thursday.

The Tops???

See 44

Great suggestions above - Freebird and Outbound Plane were on my first (and sadly longer) list. I'm hoping BB might play Cado Belle or Kim Richey, but ....

SG - the Nazareth version is my better half's favourite!

Joe
Linlithgow

Joe - Cado Belle? Dont know that name at all. Kim Richey always welcome IMO.

Maria - Never mind EC, its Roxy John I'm worried about. Where has he gone? Our only celeb blogger.
Oh, and btw, do you not have access to a computer down south?

Re blog no. 44 I was of course referring to The Four Tops!

Norrie - it's OK I have heard worse but won't introduce it to the world here! LOL

Before I forget for sound effects

The Jam - Down In The Tube Station At Midnight

Norrie

Cado Belle formed in October 1974 and consisted of six members: Alan Darby on guitar, Gavin Hodgson on bass, Stuart MacKillop on keyboards, Maggie Reilly on vocals, Davy Roy on drums and Colin Tully on saxophone and flute.
Their only LP, entitled simply Cado Belle, was released in 1976.
Cado Belle split up in 1979.

Nostalgia!

Joe
Linlithgow

Maria

Yes

Back after a few busy weeks.

MONDAY
Yes
'Oh Yeah' Roxy Music
No
'No Strange Delight'

TUESDAY Flying
'Eight Miles High' Roxy Music
'Flight 19' Phil Manzanera (of Roxy Music)
'Gone Flying' Phil Manzanera

WEDNESDAY Sound Effects
Something very local is the rain recorded on Ben Nevis by Bryan Ferry and the mountain is credited on the song 'Taxi'

The walk up to the car on 'Love Is The Drug' (Roxy Music), the motorbike on 'Virginia Plain' (Roxy Music) the cocktail bar on 'Re-make/Re-model' (Roxy Music), the siren on 'Both Ends Burning' (Roxy Music), the music box playing Brahms Lullaby on 'Spin Me Round' (Roxy Music), the striking of a match and lighting a cigarette at the start of 'Dance Away' (Roxy Music)

THURSDAY Clocks/Time
'In The Midnight Hour' (Roxy Music)
'A Really Good Time' (Roxy Music)

'Funny How Time Slips Away' (Bryan Ferry)
'Sign Of The Times' (Bryan Ferry)
'Time On My Hands' (Bryan Ferry)

Tuesday

The Handling Of Big Jets- It was the 'B' side of Sound of The Surburbs, which in itself has a great intro.
Apologies to roxyjohn- Virginia Plane.

Welcome back RJ!

Wednesday

Last Night A DJ Saved My LIfe by Indeep (Lavvy flush)

WEDNESDAY:

"People Funny Boy" by Lee "Scratch" Perry includes the sound of a baby hiccuping and crying and is thought to be the first reaggae single to be recorded.

Sure Jimmy Lindsay's reggae version of The Commodores "Easy" has a telephone in it but best check.

"Billy Porter" by Mick Ronson (sirens)

THURSDAY:

"5:15" - The Who

Forgot for Wednesday:

"Summer Teeth" from the album "Summerteeth" by Wilco, for the sounds of a running stream and twittering birds.

Hi Joe - looked it up on the internet and I see the Cd transfer is roundly slated so I have ordered the lp on ebay. Not cheap which is always a good sign! I will let you know what I think!

Cheers

Norrie Maclean

No

Dawn Penn - You Don't Love Me (No, No, No)

Yes

Yes - America (but go for the much shorter single version rather than the overblown album - or live - version)

Some great suggestions for Monday appearing & I would definitely like to add my voice to those asking for Martyn Bennet's "Nae Regrets". I'd also add these suggestions

No Woman No Cry – Bob Marley
No Diggity – Blackstreet
No Sympathy – Super Furry Animals

I suppose it's unavoidable but the best thing would be no Yes, please.

Peter Gabriel No Self Control

Sex Pistols No One Is Innocent

Duane Eddy and The Rebels - Yep

Can I second RJ's suggestion for Sign of The Times. Great lead single off a superb album. Ah singles the way they used to be - less than 3 minutes and with a proper b-side.

TUESDAY

'Western Union Wire' - Kinky Friedman

A sad country song about a woman who is on a plane, and a man who isn't.

A few suggestions for this week

Tuesday
Las Vagas Turnaround - Hall and Oates
Barbados - Typically Tropical
Rio - Mike Nesmith
Jet, Let 'Em in, or My Love - Wings


Wednesday

From Jon & Vangelis
Friends of Mr Cairo
or

One Day I'll Fly Away - Randy Crawford
Come Fly With Me - Frank Sinatra
Rocket Man - Elton John
International Jet Set - The Specials

Surely it must be time for

Nightflight To Venus - Boney M
I Believe I can Fly - that green duck thing

Tuesday.

Bermuda Triangle Blues- Blondie

For Tuesday how about 'Winterlight' by Clearlake from 2001? It was the band's first single and includes the lyrics..."look up into the sky and you can see the sun reflecting off the body of an aeroplane."

Cheers.

Raymie in Consett.

WEDNESDAY

'Cloudbusting' - Kate Bush

(Choo-Choo Train)


'Just One More Night' - Yellow Dog

(Telephone)

Stephen from Invergordon

Tuesday:
Great opportunity to get 747 by Saxon on at tea time. Put it on after Mike Nesmith (good link!)
Scottish Git - Good shout on Yellow Dog, not heard that for a while.

jim frae erskine

Yes, yes, yes to Flying down to Rio.

Or how about a choice of Nanci Griffiths tracks:
The Flyer; or
Three Flights Up (!!!)

Flying :

BA Roberston - Bang Bang
Drop The Pilot - Joan Armatrading
One Day I'll Fly Away - Randy Crawford
Airport - The Motors
Fly Me To The Moon - Frank Sinatra
Sparrow - Mary Hopkin
Butterfly Collector - The Jam
Rocket Man - Kate Bush
Only You - Flying Pickets

Andy - flights of course! How about 20 flight rock by Eddie Cochrane. lloyd Cole and the commotions - Four Flights Up.

Great Nanci track, the flyer, I think a few of us have suggested that now so hopefully it will be on.

Hope you are surviving these M77 jams - brutal!

Jan - The Butterfly Collector is a great shout and one of the all time great b-sides!

Tuesday

Robert Calvert managed a whole concept album on the subject of dodgy US 'planes "Captain Lockheed and the Starfighters". Either "Ejection" or "Aero Space Age Inferno" from it would do;
Arlo Guthrie "Coming in to Los Angeles" (airport);
The Motors "Airport";
Hawklords "Freefall".

TUESDAY:

10CC - "I'm Mandy Fly Me", which I've not heard for a while. I know that 10cc went through a lengthy phase of being unpopular but i think the album "How Dare You" is great. Have a feeling that track also contains sound effects so could fit for Wednesday's theme too.

WEDNESDAY:

The track "Vegetables" by The Beach Boys seemingly features vegetable-chewing as percussion. I've never heard it - anyone know if it's worth an airing?

Nothing by the Beach Boys is worth an airing.

How about OMD and Enola Gay instead.

Hello!

I'm new to this blog. I listen to the show every night whilst walking my dog. I like it when Bryan and Barbara talk about soup.

I have some suggestions for this week:

Tuesday

"Flying Sorcery" by Al Stewart. It's a great about the pioneering English aviatrix Amy Johnson. YOu can tell that Al really took his time honing the lyrics.

I would appreciate it if you DO NOT play "Fly Away" by Lenny Kravitz as it has really, really bad lyrics. "I wish that I could fly/Into the sky/So very high/Just like a dragonfly". I saw a dragonfly once, it was flying about one meter off the ground.

Wed

"The Boxer" by Simon and Garfunkel

Apparently the loud drum noise in the chorus was made by banging a heavy chain against the concrete floor of a big empty cupboard.

Thur

"Time of the Season" by the Zombies

Regards
Mr Chops, The Dwarf

She's down south and cant get to a computer, otherwise I'm sure Maria would be asking to hear Captain Tobias Wilcock on flight 372 tonight.

By the way - Mr Chops, the Dwarf is an anagram of EC in de Norf Sea.

EC in de Norf Sea has considerably more e's than Mr Chops the Dwarf.

When would something be classed as a sound effect rather than the use of an object as an unconventional musical instrument? Discuss :-)

I have a vinyl LP called "Barbra Streisand and Other Musical Instruments". It includes a song featuring the likes of kettles, blenders etc. as musical instruments. Fortunately perhaps, I can't listen to it as I have no turntable but, because of the theme, I do wonder what it sounded like - think the track was "The World is a Concerto". :-)

Norrie

Thanks for asking about the M77 - not too bad, to be honest (and a lot better than before it was built and the road came down from three lanes to one at Newton Mearns - and a lot better than before GIO started!).

My tag was chosen when Bryan had only an hour and this matched (exactly) my journey home. And it was too long to say andy_driving_through_the_southside_thenthe_M77_then_the_A77_then the B7592....and so on!

Oh Harry, Harry, Harry.....it hasnt has it??

Wednesday

Sorry, I can't resist a list, though it may well be in several parts whenever I can grab the time:

Todd Rundgren "Onomatopeia", a nice wee track from "Hermit of Mink Hollow" lp, featuring lots of onomatopaeic words followed by the relevant sound-effect (honk, hiccup, drip, slurp being just some of them);
Splodgenessabounds - either track from the other side of "2 pints, etc", car door, footsteps on "Simon Templar", and on "Michael Booth's Talking Bum" - well, you just have to use your imagination. Given BB's toilet fixation recently, it might be in with a shout?;
Sham 69 "Borstal Breakout" - breaking glass and Cockney neo-Chavs;
The Revillos "Motorbike Beat" - again, little or no imagination required.
TBC

Oh Adam Adam Adam - I can recycle old Shamen jokes till the cows come home.

Hey Harry - are you some kind of Ellery or something? You've just about pinched half my sound effects list!

I know they do have Michael Booth's Talking Bum on the system because it was played on one of Vic's Friday night shows some weeks back... It would be a good shout - and the swearword at the end has already been bleeped out!

Sound Effects:
Unusual - Roger Ruskin Spear (Bonzo Dog SFX madness but a really great song)
Onomatopoeia - Todd Rundgren (loads of sounds and words that describe them)
Autobahn - Kraftwerk (cars on the motorway)
Flash Gordon - Queen (lasers blasts going off)
Telephone Line - Electric Light Orchestra (telephone ringing at the start)
Blockbuster - The Sweet (keyboards sounding like police sirens)
Yellow Submarine - The Beatles (mechanical sounds from the submarine)
Caroline No - The Beach Boys (animals and a train are heard at the end)
Five Miles Out - Mike Oldfield (guitar sounding like a plane flying in the fade-out)
Cuckoo Song - Mike Oldfield (recorders sounding like a cuckoo)
Simon Templer - Splodgenessabounds (Simon Templer's car and running sounds)
Chainsaw - The Ramones (guess!)
Plates and saucers - The Acorn (guess!)
Nice 'n' Sleazy - The Stranglers (weird keyboard solo/noise effect)
The Harsh Truth Of The Camera Eye - Morrissey (cameras clicking)

Time:
Beat The Clock - Sparks
Time Heals - Todd Rundgren
In The Year 2525 - Zager & Evans
The Long Haul - The Proclaimers
Rock Around The Clock - Bill Haley and The Comets
Seasons In The Sun - Terry Jacks
Turn! Turn! Turn! (To Everything There Is A Season) - The Byrds
Tick, Tick, Bang - Prince
Date Stamp - ABC
It's Five O' Clock Somewhere - Jimmy Buffett
New Year's Day - U2
Seven Months - Portishead
Days Of The Week - Stone Temple Pilots
Glory Days - Bruce Springsteen
I Second That Emotion - Smokey Robinson and The Miracles

Thursday (Time):

Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band - "Tubas in the Moonlight" - mentions twighlight and is a lovely, silly little ditty :-)

Hey people-can we get a few more requests for Steve Miller's Fly Like an Eagle so it actually gets played tonight??That would be good, as BB often says.

More ideas:
Tom Russell Blue Wing (beautiful and rarely heard)
Townes van Zandt Flying Shoes
Tom Petty Learning to Fly

And please avoid Take Me to the Pilot (Elton John)--truly horrid

Good shout guys with Todd Rundgren Onomatopoeia. JFE you beat me with Queen Flash Gordon, it was at the top of my list
