Is she a good cook?

@vienna

Great choices as well! Never heard them before.
Especially Artie Shaw is terrific.:yeah:

I have been following this young lady's music to see where it takes her. I found this video of Gabriella Quevedo and a duet she did with none other than Tommy Emmanuel. I hope you enjoy.

A thousand pardons squirrely one. :haha:

He needs more than that :haha:

It' s Sunday and I was being kind. :haha:

She could dance hard, too. Here she's the lead singer in a band she formed with her sisters and friends before she went to the UK and became a star; she got her moves from a side gig she had as ago-go dancer in a nightclub; it's a miracle she didn't get whiplash...

Singin' and dancin'.... 2 of life's pleasures.

Good work from the cameraman, he knew who to focus on.:)

Not much dancing in this clip but a good song.

This video for the Los Angeles band, The Muffs, and their 1995 song Sad Tomorrow gives me a bit of nostalgia; the setting is an actual pawn shop about two miles away from my home and is the place where I bought my first 4-track reel-to-reel tape deck. The shop is famous as a sort of 'pawn shop to the stars'; there is all a manner of items available from gold and platinum records pawned by stars on the skids to oddities; the last time I was there, they had a complete human skeleton for sale. A unique setting for a unique group...

Twenty years later, and The Muffs are still rocking...

I have heard many versions and renditions of this classic song but none better than this version by Loreena McKennit. Loreena gives this song an ethereal quality to it. It's a beautiful song made all the more so by Loreena's vocals. Loreena is a bit of a triple threat in that she can sing, play piano and harp.

quote: "Bonny Portmore" is an Irish traditional folk song which laments the demise of Ireland's old oak forests, specifically the Great Oak of Portmore or the Portmore Ornament Tree, which fell in a windstorm in 1760 and was subsequently used for shipbuilding and other purposes.

In 1664 an extensive castle was erected at Portmore, near Portmore Lough, County Antrim by Lord Conway, on the site of a more ancient fortress. It contained accommodation for two troops of horse.[1] The old oak is believed to have stood on the estate of Portmore Castle.
The melody of this song was first published 1840 in Bunting's "Ancient Music of Ireland" and was collected from the playing of Ulster harper Daniel Black in 1796.[2] The air is probably as old as the time of the O'Neill's of Ballinderry, who, due to declining fortunes were forced to sell the property to Lord Conway. The first verse appears to make reference to this sale.[3]
A Scottish version laments the loss of a lover left behind at Portmore, which William Tait identifies with (St. Fillans).[4] (There is also a Portmore Loch in the Scottish Borders). While attributed to Donald Cameron, Burns biographer Alan Cunningham believes it comes from the north of Ireland.[5] Peter Buchan published a version which formed the basis of Burns' "My Heart's in the Highlands"

If the song sounds familiar and you watch movies, you may remember this song from one of the " Highlander " movies.
