Madeleine Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 Surprised that no one has mentioned Sinead O'Connor's passing, very sad. I didn't know she sang the latest version of the Outlander theme until they mentioned it on the news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She always seemed always to be doing different things to be happy, but none of them worked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loved Northern Exposure, one of a kind. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loved Northern Exposure, one of a kind. Tom and his brother Dick were also one of a kind. Truly great TV show. They frequently had John Hartford and Glen Campbell on the show as guests.

Madeleine Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 I don't think it was shown in the UK, I've never heard of them - Glen Campbell was well known here, but I've not heard of John Hartford either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muggle not Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 (edited) John Hartford - Wikipedia (worth reading, if you have the time) A few of John Hartford’s accomplishments: John Hartford wrote “Gentle On My Mind” which was recorded by Glen Cambell: "Gentle on My Mind", won three Grammy Awards and was listed in "BMI's Top 100 Songs of the Century".[2][3 John Hartford also recorded 2 songs for the movie O’ Brother Where Art Thou.

I'm surprised there's nothing there of Burt Bacharach's and Dionne Warwick's, though. Gentle on My Mind is a lovely song. Tom Smothers must have been ahead of his time politically, sounds like he stood for important issues. Very different from his brother. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madeleine Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Did you ever try to do that rolling across the front of the car? Maybe not as you were older and more sensible..... you can't really do that now as most newer cars slope downwards too much at the front😀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
