Thanks all - I was never a Minnie Riperton fan, I can’t stand Loving You, but I do like this song

Was it Les Fleurs by Minnie Ripperton? I know the one you mean - I think it was used for an advert.  Thank you for this, I’ve been busting my brains trying to find it!! I love the chorus - it was used in a Microsoft advert, or the “la la la” version was, which is probably why I couldn’t remember the lyrics…! |

Former Tom Jones, AC/DC, The Firm, Manfred Mann's Earth Band et al drummer Chris Slade has announced his retirement. He's fast approaching 80 and has suffered a minor stroke in the last few years so is hanging up his sticks.
I just saw him the once with Page and Rodgers in the Firm and a fine drummer he was too. Here they are back in the mid-80s filmed in concert in London... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MdEmBe24Xa4 |

I asked on the bookface for the set list for MGW as I’m trying to identify a particular song but nobody has it. Anyone here got it? The song was I think a hit within the last 10 years. I have no idea of the words but there’s quite a rousing chorus. Mr B thinks it’s from Hair (the musical) and it’s certainly in that vein, but I think it’s more recent. Any help gratefully received! The recording uploaded to DIME had this attached, though sod's law says that the song you want is one of the unidentified ones. 1. Intro 2. 3. Hammond Song 4. Intro 5. We Are Marshall Gilmour Webbs 6. 7. Intro inc. Happy Birthday 8. Straw Into Gold 9. Intro 10. In Full Colour 11. Intro 12. The Knowing 13. I'm Full Of Your Love 14. Intro 15. The Great Gig In The Sky 16. Intro 17. Vita Brevis->Between Two Points 18. Intro 19. 20. Les Fleurs 21. Crowd 22. Intro 23. And So It Goes 24. The Moon And The Tide 25. Outro |

Oops sorry, meant Chris (Leslie). I think many of his songs are brilliant but some rather twee. Re the "ands", she introduced quite a few lines with "and", which to me was irritating. What have I got myself into here? Thanks for resolving that  I thought you probably meant Chris, but didn't like to presume. |

Anyone know who the person was, whom I spotted down near the veggie stall, on the left…He was about 5’6”, slight build, slim features and had dyed black floppy hair. I am certain he was a singer/musician possibly from 80s/90s…but I can’t get the name to mind! Gave me a lovely smile as if he knew I had recognised him, but I didn’t want to go up and say ‘Were we at school together, were you on Talkawhile, or were you in my record collection?’ I’ll open the bidding with Steve Hogarth. Yes, Dr Google AI thought that too…and Paul Young, Jarvis Cocker, Ian Broudie, Marc Almond and more…but nope! |
