Van Morrison - In The Days Before Rock n Roll

Velvet Underground - Rock n Roll

"Hey Rock n Roll" - Showaddywaddy

MONDAY



Too loud, man! Play a couple of gentle songs, slow it doon a wee bit...


'I Want to Sing that Rock and Roll' - Gillian Welch

'Little bit Country, a Little bit Rock 'n' Roll' - Donny & Marie

#9

Gaie,

The Patti Smith Group won't make the playlist either. Even if you got it through the profanity filter, Miss Babs would have a fit.

Och, weel.

No' tae worry.

Nivvir mind.


>8-D

#11. Wondered about that one myself SG!!

yet they regularly play other songs that I'm sure refer to things Babs doesn't discuss at teatime

'That Is Rock and Roll' - The Coasters

'Your Mama Don't Dance and Your Daddy Don't Rock and Roll' - Loggins and Messina

#4

Rock 'n' Roll Island - Jefferson Airplane - As much chance of being played as me winning the August crossword prize in the News of the World.

#13 I sent in this handy guide some months ago...

Wonder if we'll get some Rockabilly fae Gaie's neck of the woods...

Tennessee Rock n Roll ~ Shakin' Pyramids

Ladies and gentlemen.....

Mott The Hoople - The Golden Age Of Rock n Roll

I'm just a singer in a Rock and Roll Band - The Moody Blues

DC

Dave Edmunds - I Knew The Bride (When She used To Rock n Roll)

Gillian Welch w David Rawlings - I Want To Sing That Rock n Roll

#11, #12 I'm real slow, folks, but I'm not following?

I first heard the song about a million years ago on Alan Freeman's wonderful Saturday afternoon radio show.

How come Legs and Filthy Gorgeous get past the filter? and yes, Norrie, your list's spot on.

#178 always happy to second a bit of rockabilly (nervously wondering if she's just added another profanity)

I've Got a Rock & Roll Heart - Eric Clapton

- Ten Years After

I Don't Wanna hang Up My Rock & Roll Shoes - The Band - sh**, failed filter test

Previously on the Blog....

Madmac - The Meat Purveyors? That was interesting. Thank you!

;o)



Old Time Rock & Roll - Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band

:o)

#11 - #12 - #22 - Gaie - I think they mean If you thought Because The Night was rude and raunchy maybe it's best not to listen.

;o)

Bryan Ferry
'Shameless (Rock And Roll Desire)'

Bowie
'Rock 'n' Roll Suicide'

Rolling Stones
'It's Only Rock 'n' Roll'

J.O'B.

Senga, you've lost me - where did I ever mention Because the Night? Or even Patti Smith on this thread? I asked for Barefoot Dancing one night last week - I am getting seriously confused here. Again. :0(

Are we sure is a suitable theme?

Is

`I Didn`t Know I Loved You Till I Saw You Rock n Roll`

allowed?

It's made me look at So You Want To Be a Rock 'n' Roll Star again.

#27

Glen,

This reminds me of the theme when we had lunch instead of love.

We could have a food theme which involves removing the word Rock and replacing it with Fork, e.g. 'Fork me Gently'

I commend it to the House!

#26

Gaie,

What are you banging on about? I'm confused.

MONDAY


'Your Sister Can't Twist (But She Can Rock 'n' Roll)' - Elton John

THING-FISH - WHERE ARE YOU? - WE'RE ABOUT TO HAVE A STOOSHIE.


#31 Me!!!!! I said nothing - YOU mentioned Patti Smith, no' me, Senga said I found Because the Night raunchy though I've never listened to the lyrics since I don't much like the song.

Gies a brek!!!

stomps off to do some

#33

Gaie,

Springsteen wrote Because the night, so we can't upset Norrie by telling him you don't like it.

#9, You implied that the Johnny Winter song wouldn't get played.

#11, I agreed with you, adding that the Patti Smith song wouldn't get played either.

#12, Norrie admits the thought had crossed his mind.

#22, We know you're a wee bit slow, so we make allowances.

#22, Whilst remaining far out of firearms range.

#24, Senga leaves a link to the song we can't mention. (See #11).

#26, You are getting seriously confused here. Again. :o(

#31, So am I.

#33, You flounce off in a huff. Poor Bambi.


>8-D

'Keep on Forkin' in the Free World' - Neil Young

Forkit - Herbie Hancock

#38

Paolo,

Unless they don't.

Australia's finest tatt's... I actually bargain binned this back in the day

Rose Tattoo ~ Rock 'N' Outlaw


















Wish I could afford to get that particular Southern Cross tattoo burnt off! Why oh why ;-)

I'm Not the King of Rock & Roll - Jon Fratelli

a nice loud foot-tapping wee tune with no sweary words or possible racism. Get it on!

#39 Paolo, you mind you're on the lemonade and kindly offered to drive us all there and back

#39 -Im so sorry but I'm fleeing the country now and won't be back until after all the fun ...maybe next time hope everyone enjoys

#46 a wise move jinkk

Monday

Black Rebel Motorcycle Club ~ Whatever Happened To My Rock 'N' Roll (Punk Song)
Joe Strummer & The Mescaleros ~ The Road To Rock & Roll
Too Old To Rock 'N' Roll ~ Jethro Tull
David Bowie ~ Rock 'N' Roll With Me (avoiding the klaxon!)

Three of the four often requested blah, blah, blah... sorry all.

Madmac can I second Rock n Roll With Me, great suggestion.

and add

Ramones or Jesse Malin - Do You Remember Rock n Roll Radio (I think Kiss covered this too?)

and I'll second the Joe Strummer one

Cheers Gaie.

nae bother, it's a good song, madmac, but it's probably not a help since my name became toxic. Sometimes though they just call me someone on the blog and get past it that way.

Rock n Roll Train - ACDC

Keep the faith Gaie.

RE Strummer etc I often do wonder if Bryan and the producers don't get bored of picking shoe-ins I.E. T. Clash opposed to Mescaleros, BAD, Latino Rockabilly War, The Good The Bad & The Queen.


BTW was walking in Glen Lyon yesterday, a fair number of Golden Plovers seen, I was obviously alarming them by their trilling song when near.

well perhaps if you'd not been singing Destroy Rock & Roll so loudly they'd not have been alarmed :0)

I've seen one once only in Muirshiel, my local haunt; and on Rum, again only once.

Nature Notes

Our countryside correspondent has reported increased sightings of pluvialis apricaria. This is at odds with the recent arrival in their habitat of bampotus scotii inexplicably deserting its normal urban breeding ground.

Danny and the Juniors - 'Rock and Roll Is Here To Stay'

'For Those About to Fork, We Salute Your Forkability!' - AC/DC


>8-D

#34 Mr Git what a forkin laugh x

#60 GOOD OLD KISS!

#60

'Fork this Country' - Shania Twain


Yeeha!

AC/DC - Rock 'n' Roll Ain't Noise Pollution

The Go-Betweens - Rock N Roll Friend

Glad you enjoye your trip Henri - and I was hoping you would have enjoyed the baths and the superb suspension bridge. The bridge is quite unteresting as it was actually designed by ean Englishman, William Clark, who was an early pioneer of suspension bridges. But the construction was carried out by a Scottish Engineer Adam Clark who later designed a nd supervised the Buda tunnel. He was also a social reformer and so popular in Budapest they named a square after him (just below the funicular railway which is also a cracker).

I digres.

And don't mention bridges, Bryan does not like it.

#70 Man! He's off on one again, no change on this blog. zzzzzzzzz


Suppose he did suggest a decent track so I also suggest:

Jesse Malin - Do You Remember Rock n Roll Radio or the original single by Ramones.

#66 - Henri - I'm glad you enjoyed your wee trip, even if I wasn't invited. I'm so happy for you. Really!

:o)


#70 - Norrie - How fascinating! How do you know all this stuff? You must stop teasing us and be more specific!

:o)


Don't Play That Rock 'n' Roll To Me - Smokie

:o)

#70

There's also a square named after a David Bowie In fact, it's one of those.....

Cities On Flame With Rock and Roll - Blue Öyster Cult

#26 - Gaie - Please forgive my presumption! I thought the link would clear up your confusion, not aggravate it!

#34 - Scotch Git - That's not funny! You're a rude boy! And we know where the rude boys sit, don't we? Tell Glen Miller to move over and make room for you!

You two will have to buy me and Gaie lots of drinks in Edinburgh before I forgive you!

;o)

#73 ~ good photos. I spotted two Bowie Songs of course before I got weary...

#73 - Glen - You take the pictures in Edinburgh and we can put them on Facebook! Scotch Git can buy the drinks.

;o)
