The Official Music Nostalgia Thread

He was one of the cool ones. He kinda bounced around in the arts programs, and a year or so later I had him in pottery class. I made an Eddie head bong that wasn't really too noticeable until you examined it. He just smirked and gave me an A.

He probably had an Eddie jean jacket patch!

He would have been a good "stay in school" advertisement back then.

I wasn't sure if maybe you meant Neil Young, or even someone else.

You have to be specific. If you mean when did music get physically recorded, I think the first machine that could capture music was the Edison phonograph in 1877, but physical music would have been around back in the stone age, when they were using the skulls of their enemies as drums. Perhaps they were nostalgic then, too:

Urkh: "I miss the beat you used to get when you tapped on the skull of one of those guys from Cave 116!"

Hakkh: "Yeah, these guys from Cave 3214 just don't sound the same."

Urkh: "Those guys sold out, man. It used to be about the music."

Hakkh: "I know what you mean, dude. They've been dining out on BONG-BONG-CRASH-THOK-BONG now for centuries!"

Urkh: "You know, you tell that to the kids these days, they don't believe you."

Two titans at the very top of their game. You can almost smell the animosity and coldness with the slow death of love guttering like a spent candle beneath it. Superb.



Neil Diamond and Barbra Streisand - "You Don't Bring Me Flowers"

That was my Moms favorite song. She was a fan of both and when they released that, I though she might spontaneously combust.

I know my grandmother loved that song. She loved Neil Diamond. She was the first one to tell me that he wrote Red red wine.
