Word Association Game

[carlosj]

I'm coming to the eFest meet, be good to put faces to avatars. Out of the many versions, this is the first version I remember, taking the link to LATER.

The Specials - Enjoy Yourself:

[grumpyhack]

There definitely has to be a meet of the Word Association Group (WAGs) at Glasto. I've love to put faces to the names who've introduced me to some excellent music.

The connection went something like Yourself > All By Myself > Alone Again Or

So in the spirit of Glasto another opportunity to post a track from the great gig by Arthur Lee and Love.

And the connecting word can be Alone

I first got into Love back in the late sixties but couldn't get over how white Arthur Lee sounded. Have another track while I'm on a roll.

Morning fellow WAG'ers; from alone to TOGETHER, have a Stella Sunday people

[whisty]

Finally

"Nice Sunday morning easy listen. "This song was the group's biggest hit after the departure of lead singer Curtis Mayfield"

[oneeye]

From finally to at LAST

[carlosj]

Made me think of last rites (and James Last), but a similar (happier) SERVICE is a wedding ceremony. I was tempted to have this at ours, or Nick Cave (numerous examples). I heard there was only 1 pressing of this that survived, which was covered over by zealous DJs on the Northern Soul circuit, but I'm glad it got a wider circulation.

The link word is SERVICE.

Frank Wilson - Do I Love You (Indeed I Do):

[grumpyhack]

You pay Lip service.

Here's the frighteningly talented Stephen Merchant and friends taking miming to a new level in a Lip synch battle

Lip to UP, shake off the Monday morning cobwebs

[whisty]

People, Lambchop.

And a nice Zero 7 Remix.

People Get Ready

A touch of soul from Al Green

[carlosj]

From one Reverend to another, who's ready (geddit?) for this year's festival. Link word is CLAP.

The Reverend Peyton's Big Damn Band "Clap Your Ha:

[grumpyhack]

Never heard of the Rev Peyton but he has a damm good band so thanks for that Carlosj.

So from Clap we go to Dosed or Dose.

Luckily being a married man who has always stayed on the straight and narrow I've never been dosed.

A bit of the Red Hot Chili Peppers

Swallow,

Another one from the Twins (some time since I listened to them) with Harold Budd, only vid tho.

I suppose if you had a dose you could Wax & Wain so a live offering of Fraser & Co.

From swallow to PIL

[carlosj]

Taking the link to BITTER, or SUGAR (as in a spoonful if sugar makes the medicine go down) ( no pun intended, by posting this by the Jam).

The Jam - The Bitterest Pill (I Ever Had To Swall:

[grumpyhack]

I'll go with sugar and link to Brown

This has to go down as a Glastonbury moment for me. I love that Charlie Watts has one of the smallest drum kits around these days but still provides all that is needed.

[oneeye]

Good morning pop pickers, from brown to IAN, have a fab day everyone

[whisty]

Was going to use Jack and Diane as that came up on search for Ian, but singing about 2 people in a song reminded me of this one. So let's have Money as the word. - 5 points for any link to Mr Cash

Or raw old footage if preferable.

If I had his money, I could do things my way...

Johnny Cash - Satisfied Mind (HQ) *With Lyrics:

However, my link word is MACHINE.

The King of the machine gun guitar has to be Wilko Johnson. Fingers crossed.

And the man explains and makes it look so simple

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMlhWvIh7U4

So the link word is Gun

[whisty]

Lovers Gun from the fine album, Black Crow Jane by Inga Liljestrom. Nothing live for this one but album is well worth a mention im humble o.

Something live ish

From lovers to LANE; beat you carlosj lol

[grumpyhack]

OK trying to be clever here. This song was written by Denny Laine, in his early days with the Moody Blues, before he grew Wings and then flew off to live in the States.

A Boulevard is a sort of big lane and it's the Boulevard de la Madeleine.

So three lane/laine/leine s for the price of one.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=obJglxLK000

As there's no performance above so let's move on to the Moodys in full orchestral form at a later stage - sans Denny - at the Albert Hall.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qDWy7MsIxSU

So the link word is Moody

Moody to OVERJOYED; great band.

Soak up the sunshine fellow WAGs, 6 weeks today!

[carlosj]

Overjoyed? There must be an angel!

ANGEL is the link. Meetings all day interfere with my eFestivals enjoyment today. Bah humbug. 6 weeks y'all! !
