Now that is just too much hair right there. Like hair to infinity squared.

Can anyone say "hot wax?"

A bat swimming in the water... This was so cute ;v;

That's not just any bat.....that's a Flying Fox. (You can tell, since it has no tail). What you can't tell from the video is just how BIG that bat is. Flying Foxes can grow to have a body that is around 24" in length, with up to an 8 foot wingspan.

They're adorable fruit eaters. But I can honestly say I'd never seen one swimming before....thanks for sharing it!

Ah cool I never knew that :>

I didn't know bats could swim at all ^^;

I'll bet that was fun. :-) Almost everything nowadays on the radio sounds the same. Makes me want to go hunt down the golden oldies. Like heavy metal and the runaways.

I call it "homogenization". It's a fine tuned attribute of modern commerciallism.

But it isn't "old" unless it was written by guys in powdered wigs and stinky wool suits. But the very fact that some of their music is still played means it has survived a half dozen generations (more or less). The cream rose to the top. Each generation found something about some of it that endured. Something about some of it made it "classic".

But if you dig deep enough into the archives of that old music and dig up the crusty ashes you find that a lot of it was boringly homogenous, unoriginal and clumsily constructed too. But like all arts, some of the devotees deeply involved can't bring themselves to admit that in some cases the Emperor has no clothes and happily throw the ashes around just because they're there.

Sounds like you know your music. I don't, so I won't debate the finer points. I will say though, that existential waves of favoritism -- or trends -- exist, in any creative art form. Guys with long hair and makeup sometimes and guitars, for instance, in the 80s.

My oldies are classic keeper songs. Range span is 60s to modern day.

It isn't really true that the stuff in the central repertory today has lasted - Vivaldi dropped out of sight for centuries, both Sibelius and Mahler were pretty much neglected in much of the world for several decades.

I admit, some of the ashes prematurely buried are still glowing and if they land on tinder they can rekindle. Some of it was ahead of its time. others though had its day and blew away. Just like 99 and 44/100ths % of todays music. Oh, and except for a couple pieces, I feel that most of the revived Vivaldi and Rossini should have stayed buried." And even some of Beethoven should be reburied. But that's sacrilege.

And of course this is just me being opinionated. But being without an opinion scares the hell out of me.. Mustn't become an unthinking sheep. And don't for a minute think this is a serious conversation. This is, after all, a complaint thread.

...yeah I spent a good part of my time spinning the hits from the 17th 18th 19th and early 20th centuries as well.

For jazz and blues my "classic era" is the teens through the 60s

For popular songs I go back ot the 50s, 60s and early 70s as well". The 60s in particular were enjoyable as that was the era of the "one hit wonder" bands and the Mersey Beat. (yes there were other British Invasion groups I listened to than just the Beatles, Stones, and the Who).

Kind of fell away from the pop scene when Disco hit the scene but came back for a bit in the late 70s late 80s (when more jazz like textures were adopted and "new wave" groups like Devo and Talking Heads became big). Then lost interest again, especially after the "let's make you a pop star" shows were on the telly.

I am lucky enough to be the younger sister of the guy who designed the most iconic British organ ever made. The slimline Vox Continental MK1 was his idea and Mac his boss did the woodwork from that prototype and he then built 12 more. A small beginning but iconic. He built Vox organs for the Beatles, Rolling Stones and many more. The car park outside the Vox workshop was a muddy field full of Rolls Royce cars belonging to clients, not the staff.

It isn't really true that the stuff in the central repertory today has lasted - Vivaldi dropped out of sight for centuries, both Sibelius and Mahler were pretty much neglected in much of the world for several decades.

...it was interesting though that the music of Bach gined popularity from two seemingly unlikely sources: Wendy (then Walter) Carlos and the Switched on Bach albums where his music was realised on the early Moog synthesiser and Virgil Fox with his Heavy Organ concerts where Fox toured with a large classical styled electronic organ and accompanying light show playing at such venues as Winterland and Filmore East.

On the more academic side, there was the revival of baroque period instrumentation in the 1970s including the renaissance of the harpsichord (spearheaded by Hubbard, Dowd, and Zuckermann here in the States) and return to traditional baroque organ building practises (Flentrop of Holland, Von Beckrath of Germany and Brombaugh here in the US) which allowed for more historically accurate interpretation of his music. This also led to a greater interest in other baroque composers as well such as Vivaldi Handel, Scarlatti, Rameau, Telemann Corelli and Soler.

The "baroque revival" in turn rekindled an interest in traditional performance of earlier music from the mediaeval and renaissance eras as well, which included the reconstruction of instruments from those periods and even use of different tuning temperaments. I've actually played on a small positif organ tuned in Meantone (the temperament used during the mediaeval days) and it sounds quite different from the tuning we use today.

Depends on what you listen to. Providence R.I. has 94.1 WHJY...the Home of Rock 'n' Roll. You can listen online at their website, and I think also on Iheartradio. Very human DJ's. And they spin vinyl now and then, now that it's made a bit of a resurgence. Paul and Al in the mornings (until 10:00 am) are pretty funny...Al does great impressions. On Thursdays then have a contest...Stump the DJ. Call in with your joke and see if you can stump them. It's not easy. Between them they seem to know the punchline to every joke ever told. But sometimes the prizes are really good. And someone has to win...best joke wins. I think I only remember one time when they didn't give out the prize because the jokes were lame and predictable to the point of silliness. Often the prize is $94, and a tee shirt that shows Paul and Al and says "I stumped the DJ" (I think - never won it). Sometimes a local Toyota dealer donates prizes. Sometimes he makes it big...$940, plus concert tickets sometimes. One time it was $94 plus a nice leather jacket. The only time the broadcast is automated is on special holiday weekends...sometimes.

...the later works of Liszt actually fit better with the Impressionistic period. I consider even Chopin to have been ahead of his time.

As to Beethoven, I especially like his later quartets. Interestingly I am not a huge fan of Mozart and some of his contemporaries (though I do like Haydn) which for some may be considered "heresy". I felt both the Baroque and Romantic periods which bookended the "classical" era to have more expression and feeling.

...nothing like that out here, just stupid semi shock jock rubbish.

I miss that kind of radio. We had DJs like that back in Milwaukee when I was growing up. Call ins were really interesting as many people still had dial instead of push button phones back then .

Still remember getting WABC from New York in as clear as a bell every evening from about 22:00 until around 03:30 Central time (ahh when AM radio was still good and not just filled with lame talk and politico shows like it is today). Used to listen to Charlie Greer when he did the All Night show. Loved the old Dennison's Clothier commercials "Money talks and nobody walks..."

For popular songs I go back ot the 50s, 60s and early 70s as well". The 60s in particular were enjoyable as that was the era of the "one hit wonder" bands and the Mersey Beat. (yes there were other British Invasion groups I listened to than just the Beatles, Stones, and the Who).

I take a passing interest in Jim and The Doors. :-)

...saw them live.
