Magaling Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 "Oh Lorie" keeps reminding me of my first gf which, come to think of it, is kinda wierd because her name wasn't even Lorie. But that song was a hit back then and they kept playing it over and over again at the CHS fair where I met her. :goatee: Quote Link to comment

16track Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 I think the CD exchange was a good exercise! We certainly got copies of songs that we have not heard in a long time.I agree that we should a part of it. Perhaps more can join up to make it even better. To those who were not there, please do make it for the next time it comes around as it is all clean fun! Quote Link to comment

I like that Jesus Christ Superstar, yung original version. So....pwuede bang magbigay ako ng MP3? What songs na gusto nyo? baka meron ako ditong natatago. Quote Link to comment
gadalej Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 (edited) boss 16track, burn me a copy of circus band din. i suggest we make omakase a semi-permanent venue for our cd exchanges. this way we promote our friend's place, we give him business and for all the other's who will join us, very predictable na kung saan tayo. and we can make it a monthly affair para consistent. pwede rin we can make sure that for that day, puro 70s ang music sa venue. talagang may theme na tayo. and if evenings to, pwede na natin itodo trip natin na dapat may getup tayo na 70s. what do you guys think?

John Hay really reminds me of the 70's too... as kids we used to go there and the memory that will never fade is the smell of the freshly grilling hash browns in the 19th tee... complete with the super mayabang and masungit pinay cashiers speaking with american accents... hahahaha!!!! galing! Kaso ngayon with all the koreans there, hindi na sya CAMP JOHN HAY.... KIM JOHN HAY na sya ngayon! hahahaha!! Edited October 15, 2007 by ElRey Quote Link to comment
augustmoon Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 (edited) Hi 16Track. Thank you for the Circus Band CD :thumbsupsmiley: ..... Pinoy_Strigoi & I can barely concentrate on work.. The CD, and most specially your visit to our office this morning is truly appreciated... we enjoyed your good company (and hopefully, you enjoyed our good coffee ) ..you are always welcome to come visit us anytime...perhaps, next time, Lunch ? Does anybody know the whereabouts of the Circus Band members?? Share naman. I have always been a big fan of the band. Edited October 15, 2007 by augustmoon Quote Link to comment

pinoy_strigoi Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 (edited) Thanks for the info about the Circus Bandmembers Hitman531ph.Augustmoon and I have been listening to the Circus CD trying to figuure out the lead vocals for every song. we couldnt discern well enough to be sure except for a couple of songs except those of Pabs, Tillie and that of Richard Tan. We still couldnt identify which has Basil as lead vocals. Noticed that all the singers (of Circus Band) really enunciate the kyrics of the song(s) very well...unlike the present crop of singers who eat their words.

Magaling Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 (edited) @Pinoy: If I remember that cd correctly, Basil was on lead vocals in "The Harder I Try" and "Wildflower".... Memorable sa akin yung "The Harder I Try" because I sang that in one of our school programs in HS. I invited my gf from a nearby girls school. Big mistake as it turned out. Nagaway pa kami because of that. Not sure if Basil was from SBCHS (or was it just Hadji?). If he were, he might have gotten the idea of including a "Michel Legrand Medley" in his early-80s Corner of the Sky album from the glee club where the medley is one of the staple songs in the late 70s. Of course with some differences in arrangement like the glee club version starts with words from "Windmills of My Mind" instead of the second stanza from "What Are You Doing the Rest of Your Life" and so on.... Michel Legrand was a very poetic composer. Definitely one of my all-time favorites. :goatee: Edited October 16, 2007 by Magaling Quote Link to comment
16track Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 (edited) I'll burn a few more Circus Band Cds for the others.I'm okay with another CD exchange meet.Perhaps, somebody can take the lead in organizing it? Nowadays, such a high level of Musicianship as displayed in the Circus CD is quite common with so many good artists around -- but we have to remember that Circus Band was already that good even way back then when most bands were content with just trying to sound "Plakado". At that time, Circus Band was already trying to have better arrangements suited to each vocalist, more varied line up of songs and creating their own sound despite doing covers. pinoy_strigoi and augustmoon-- thanks as well!!! Lunch next time around sounds fine! Edited October 16, 2007 by 16track Quote Link to comment

bods1000 Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 that Circus CD was great, but unfortunately it does not have their version of the Stones' GIMME SHELTER, which has remained a personal favorite. Simply can't forget the voices of Tillie and others as they repeatedly sang the choruse with the lines, "...it's just a shot away/it's just a shot away.....". Anyway this is a minor quibble and that CD has become quite a staple of my player now ever since I got it from 16t... photographer - I will make you a CD with FRIENDS OF MINE, but what other songs would you like. Gusto mo ba selections, or pure Guess Who CD? Thanks.. Anybody wants a CD of great 70's Rock Drum Performances? Think a selection of Moby Dick, Santana's Soul Sacrifice, Grand Funk's TNUC, Cream's TOAD, Blind Faith's DO WHAT YOU LIKE, etc...Nakatuwaan ko lang mag-compile ng ganito...Just advise and I will bring copies next time... Laid down low with fever and throat's acting up - baka hindi ako makalabas pa for the next week. As out dear friend photographer said, mahirap na talaga ang tumatanda hehehe.... Quote Link to comment

Have not heard FRIENDS OF MINE song for the past 30+ years na. Last time I heard it was when I still have the 45rpm pero hiniram then di na sinoli together with other 70 hits. Radio stations including that of RJ does not even play the song na. Selections lang. I miss/like also songs of Led Zeppelin's Stairway to Heaven, Whole lotta love, and, I forgot na its title, yung parang howling na pang horror hahaha. yung ganito: ahaaahaaaaaa ha! : - ) I have tons of collections here from the 70s in MP3, ano ba gusto nyo? Baka meron ako.
