Friday and the Random 10 (Hurricane Matthew Edition)

Oh yeah, it's THAT time of the year down in the FL too. People ask me, does Disney close for hurricanes? Yep. If it's a matter of guest safety then they will close (last time was in '04 I believe). They even have "rideout crews" that you can sign up for to do sandbags, move trashcans, etc. I always sign up for that because it sounds fun. And they put you up in a nice hotel.

UPDATE: Disney is closed today Friday, Oct 7.

So let's pass some time to randomized music while watching to see if Jim Cantore shows up on Main Street, USA.

Friday and the Random 10 (Meh Edition)

Well another week has passed us by, unfortunately this week was filled with work instead of vacation. Me no likey. It's the reason this is coming out so late today.

Anyway, let's get right to it. Looking back at last week I see that Yes gets banned again (I feel a Tarkus or two coming up), but I won't let that deter me any. As usual the rules and whatnot are up there ↑ at the top.

Here we go!

Friday and the Random 10 (Monsters University Edition)

Real quick one today since it's been a busy morning and about to head off to see Monsters U. Rules and whatnot over there → to the right.

1) Apollo 440/Astral America

2) RHCP/Dosed

3) The Buggles/Johnny on the Monorial (A Very Different Version)

4) Yes/Arriving UFO

5) Yes/Time is Time - one week back and they get banned already.

6) Chicago/(I've Been) Searching So Long

7) Mozart/Serenate Parts I and II - I got class yall

8) Korn/Beg For Me

9) Steve Howe/Classical Gas

10) The Mahavishnu Orchestra/A Lotus on Irish Streams

Well, that was kind of all over the place. The STCS for this week is Rick Wakeman/The Bear. Of course it's good ole RW! This must be his CD about forest animals.

Play us out Yes

 

 

Friday and the Random 10

What day is it? Friday! What do we want? A Random 10! You asked for it, you got it! If you're new here, the rules and all the details are over to the right (----> ) on the page I created. As for my other three (four? five?) constant readers welcome back! Enough wasting time, let's get down to it. I'm feeling particularly "anxious" today so I got a good feeling about this one! Here we go:

1) The Beatles/Revolution 1 - Still makes me want to buy a pair of Nike's. I like the faster version of this though. Classic album cover of nothingness:

2) The Buggles/Island - One of the bonus tracks for the re-mastered The Age of Plastic CD. These guys were both in YES at one point. The keyboard player is back with them today.

3) Red Hot Chili Peppers/Road Trippin - Haven't heard from these guys in awhile. Some of their stuff is surprisingly good.

4) Jon Anderson/Myo Maya - a short snippet from his Angels Embrace CD

5) Anderson Bruford Wakeman Howe/Vultures in the City - This is the split off band formed by all the ex-Yes members that couldn't use the Yes name. Why this awesome song was not included on the ABWH album is a mystery. Give a listen:

 

6) Camel/Survival - Another great sounding track from them.

 

7) Red Hot Chili Peppers/Backwoods - Twice in the same countdown. Cool but a live version which I don't really care for.

 

8) Mozart/Serenate Part 1&2 - Don't roll your eyes at me. I've loved Mozart ever since I saw Amadeus. Plus, there was that Falco thing...

9) Bob Seger/Against the Wind - Wow. This was my divorce song. Hard time for me and Bob was there.

10) Michael Jackson/Satisfy You - Added his stuff awhile back and this is his first appearance. I don't know this song though so I will probably delete it when I'm done since he seems to be only doing the backing vocals and I have no interest in hearing this song again. So this gets two awards today! Welcome to the party pal, but you've just been deleted. Sorry.

Well that will do it for another week. The STCS this go around is The Beatles/Something. Another classic album but we already have a winner for that. Play us out Bob...
