Derek's choice ...




When did you last witness friends shaking hands?

Laura's choice ...

 


"It might be something else another day," writes Laura.
(But you're only allowed one!)

Is Newfoundland a Desert Island?

I have to thank Sylvia for bringing to my attention the music of the Irish composer, Shaun Davey, who composed a suite of music, The Brendan Voyage.

Liam O'Flynn (RIP) plays solo on this tenth movement, entitled Newfoundland ...



How can that guitarist look so bored?

Virtual #15 and a Desert Island Disc ...

 Berry giveth of himself ...

YOURS!


(It's all done with mirrors!)

Then he recommends this for entertainment on that desert island ...

Ken goes native ...

Congratulations to Ken for being the first, (after some significant deliberation,) to contribute to this Desert Island enterprise ...


 

 Thanks for this wonderful anthem, Ken.

Ken declares that his choice of sacred text will be Home Brewing for Desert Islanders!
(Sorry, can't find that on Amazon!)

Desert Island Discs ...

Let us entertain ourselves. 

Imagine this ...



You have been cast ashore on a desert island.

In your voluminous pockets you have a Complete Works of Shakespeare and a sacred text of your choice.

Strangely, buried beneath the sand you discover a device for reproducing music, (Solar-powered, of course!)

Choose one song or piece of music that would keep you entertained until your rescue at some indeterminate future date.

No self-recording required, and no frustrating technology to master.
Any genre of music permissible.

Please send your suggestions +/- a YouTube URL, and a short account of the reason for your choice, to cityfolkclub@gmail.com

We will not worry about copyright. If it is out there in the public domain, we'll grab it.
(Don't tell anyone I said this.)
