Given I seem to be in a more country music theme this week, I think it is time for another Eagles classic. This was the title song their hit album of that name released all the way back in 1975.

So this is the second song from Cyndi Lauper to be cited on Covid Island Discs. This song brings back lots of memories of being a young teenager in year 11 high school. Cyndi Lauper’s album “She’s so unusual” really dominated the Australian airwaves and this was probably the main hit from the album along

So this is the second year that I have cited a song on Australian Anzac day. Anzac day is when Australians commemorate all those Aussies who have tragically lost their lives in armed conflict from the tragic souls who were gunned down by the Turks on Anzac cove to the many Aussies who suffered in

So I’ll admit that Jimi Hendrix is not my favourite artist but here is one of his classics which demonstrates some of his guitaring skill. If you like electric guitar, you’re going to love this one. This video is quite funny really as it is sooo late 60s early 70s. Like the two cool hippy

OK so yesterday I shared a song by Nirvana and mentioned a list of rock stars who all sadly passed away at the age of 27. Over the next few days I shall post a song from each of them. I have already posted a song by Amy Winehouse (Covid Island Discs day 108) and
