Back To The 70's


Recommended Posts

tahimik si pareng sbm ah :P

speaking of the Jackal, sikat na mga bestseller nuon yung mga libro ni Frederick Forsythe - THE DAY OF THE JACKAL, THE ODESSA FILE, etc...saka lumabas na din si Ludlum around that time...

among the racy bestsellers nun yung mga books ni Jacqueline Sussan - ONCE IS NOT ENOUGH saka yung THE VALLEY OF THE DOLLS....

 

Bods, ok yan ah, si Boz Scaggs. I like his songs, but my favorite is Downright Women. The Jackal was made into a movie in the 70s starring Edward Fox. The remake starring Bruce Willis was horrible. Forsythe's book was great; the cool and calculating mind of the Le Chacal, his ruthlessness made you want to root for him.

Sige bro, ingat lagi.

 

Mga movies na naalala ko na favorite namin noong highschool ay yung mga Italian Comedy movies ni Lando Buzzanca (ewan ko kung tama spelling). Naughty and sexy. Hindi ko na matandaan ang mga titles except for My Darling Slave.

hehehe I'm into my Boz Scaggs phase naman ngayon...I got hold of his Greatest Hits CD performed live at the San Francisco Great American Music Hall - ang galing! The best - pero wala dun yung Downright Women...

The Odessa File was also made into a movie starring Jon Voight, pare....

Me and mrs. jones, we got a thing going on. turun, turun!

 

Pareng sbn,

 

I know the song kaya lang wala kasi akong karanasang mala The Graduate with mrs. Robinson naman, therefore hindi ko sinali.

 

We watched kagabi sa IPanema si Nino Alejandro (nephew daw ni Hajji) last night. He has a great voice. He is also very good guitar player. Hajji and his daughters Rachel and ___ (don't know her name) were there in the audience (konti lang kami). He sang some light rock and rearrange some pop songs to sound like light rock. His version of Long Train Running by the Doobie brothers was remarkable. Magaling siya.

Ipanema...the beach in Brazil where Antonio Carlos Jobim saw the woman that inspired him to compose Girl from Ipanema. Do they play Brazilian music in this bar? There's so much I'm missing in Manila!

Pare, I saw Basil sa St. Paul Reunion/Homecomming. He was one of the performers together with Side A. Nung binasa nga ng anak ko yung name nya, she pronounced it as bay•sil (parang yung herb na ginagamit sa pesto sauce) :D

 

Madalas naming pinanonood noong 70s ang mga bandang ito:

 

Music and Magic with Kuh

New Minstrels

Something Special

Family Birth Control Band with Pinky Marquez and Nonoy Zuñiga

Music Making Company with Gary Lising :D
