Alright, time for some discussion on what yr all listening too. My iTunes inventory is getting a little stale so I'm up for some inspiration.

Currently loving The Drones' album "Havilah".. incredible songwriting and some of the best recorded guitars and drum I've heard in a long time. I'm a little late to the party with this album but it's on high rotation at the moment and will probably stay there a while. I've seen these guys live once (Fowlers, Adelaide) and fortunately they're incredible on stage too. Can't wait to see them again.

Thanx for the tip blackers...been on SBS lately but clear missed that...be worth checking out...

1st gen Boomers Protest Song is perfect for current climate apart from the fact it's a Leftie Classic...doh!

"If I had a Hammer" by pioneer Left Folkie Pete Seeger / Hayes
https://www.nytimes.com/2014/01/29/arts/music/pete-seeger-songwriter-and...
1949 US Communist Testimonial (First Performance)
Live Versions
1963 Australian "Leftie" Tour
1963 March on Washington (Peter Paul & Mary)

tbb is cuing the '62 Vinyl Version > Concerts were great, but were geared for speeches...less so song!
This version has Back Story + Click [Show more] for Lyrics > (Sucker for a Lazy lounge version set-up!)

Just to be clear...the Left Folkie was fine with Swingin' Hit Version...no injustice upon Commie Mantra.
tbb thinks the warm, safe & secure Female vocal ups to the Punk level...(Oh! I think she's being serious!)
1962 Peter Paul & Mary (Edit) World grew to love this Version. + ( 2004 Remaster is a bit too bossy )

Thanks Patrick, something to explore. Dig that Second Skin track, great drums. And Alcohol Funnycar is up there with the best ever band names.
Here’s a link for you TBB.

Oh no worries there chook, it made me laugh. Just the tunes were a bit on the dire side.

Good one Blackers. Heard this for the first time on JJJ yesterday. It's Doctor Karls number 1 pick for the hot 100. The video compliments the song too - but not a Chaise Lounge to be seen. Fun one for summer, but don't see much longevity for this song.
