I think there are a BUNCH of TDN songs that could be stylistically covered, and be popular again.... grreat writing... song structure.

KeithieW,

I just bought - for my wife's birthday - Barry Manilow's "First and Farewell" - it has 2 DVD's - one from his first ever concert on his own (using band he played with for Bette M.) - it is black and white and bad/poor quality - but lots of fun. The 2nd DVD is from his last concert - on the road - in late nineties (early 2000's ?) Haven't watched it yet.

Knowing of your "affection" for BM - or at least his music - thought I'd share. It is a good DVD.

Regards,
Ted

Thanks Ted.......we have a good DVD library here. I'll see if they have it on their list and borrow it. If I like it I'll get it. I have to admit that my favorite BM era is the Mid 70s to mid 80s...the "Even Now" era. Some wonderful songs and even better arrangements. BM and Marty Panzer were a pretty formidable writing team.

KeithieW - you are so right. I hope they have the DVD! BM is also a great showman - getting the audience involved in show.

Thanks for sharing your "guilty pleasure" with us all!! And giving us a chance to do the same.

BTW - have you heard of RUNRIG? It is a Scottish Rock group. Any thoughts or comments about them?

Ted

I have a scottish friend who ADORES Runrig. I don't mind them but have never given them enough "ear time". Next time I see Neil I'll do that. Thanks for the reminder.

My Pleasure - I too have a friend who adores them. He has been to Scotland once and on a separate trip, his son and sister made to a concert and goto to go backstage and visit with the band.

They are really good - especially the way they mix the "traditional" instruments into a rock format - something about pipes and guitars.... wow.

Well worth listening to!!
