Both of us share an interest in Hindustani Classical music and he has got live recordings of what we call a jugal bandhi (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jugalbandi) converted from tapes into CDs. Very rare and spellbinding. I know exactly what pleasure such music can provide. Here is a small sample. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-u8pJCyUl4QRummuserhttp://www.rummuser.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3599918867507699918.post-6003674394654049342012-11-17T11:08:28.701-06:002012-11-17T11:08:28.701-06:00Memories of the past with these classics, Shackman...Memories of the past with these classics, Shackman.

Never saw Them, but had the grumpy pleasure of Van the Man a few times. I always enjoyed even if he didn't look like he was.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3599918867507699918.post-70379235332035043122012-11-16T12:49:30.246-06:002012-11-16T12:49:30.246-06:00The Blue Aces Band was formed in Waterford round a...The Blue Aces Band was formed in Waterford round about 1957/58 from an earlier band called the MELLOCHORDS. Rehearsals took place in bass player Seamus Carew's front room. How everyone fitted in remains a mystery. The bass in those days was a full size upright bass fiddle!! Jerry O'Shea used to carry his drum kit there in an old pram... Sophistication at its finest! The 'Van" was a white Commer minibus with seating for ten, space at the back and a roof rack. Speakers, drum cases, and bass fiddle all went on top covered with a tarpaulin, and it was parked in the open at night... innocent times! Duchy O'Meara the trombone player, had the dubious honour of loading the roof in all weathers.Grannymarhttp://grannymar.com/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3599918867507699918.post-89929757316729240042012-11-16T08:51:16.364-06:002012-11-16T08:51:16.364-06:00Music brings me pleasure too.
