Good stuff! Which song/artist is that from?

It's an oldie: Hawkwind - We Took The Wrong Step Years Ago

My favorite lyric:
She was a fast machine
She kept her motor clean
She was the best damn woman I had ever seen

Hi everybody, for anyone that might be interested, I've just posted my review of the Final Audio B1 (I also reviewed the A8000 a while back too). You can find it here:
https://www.head-fi.org/showcase/final-b1.23704/review/24516/
Also got to give a shoutout to fellow UK Head-Fi member @skedra who loaned me a demo model of a cable he's developing (and which I discuss in the review); a combination of gold-plated copper and palladium-plated silver which elevated the B1 to whole new heights of clarity, musicality AND detail; a pretty special synergy in this case


Regarding lyrics, this is by no means my favourite lyric, but one that always puts a smile on my face, by the pioneer of Beatboxing, Dougie Fresh, in the young and innocent days of Hip-Hop, where it was predominantly about good-natured boasting, rather than guns and hoes and so forth

..And you may applaud,
and if you feel up to it,
thank the Lord for
Dougie F.R.E.S.H

..'Cause I say one rhyme
and you're left in a spell
'cause I'm good at what I do
and what I do, I do well.

It'll take a while for another MC
to reach this kind of technology
'cause, when I perform,
I rock up a storm
and while you're getting hot
I'm just getting warm

And, common sense;
I'm never tense
Sound like instruments,
I'm magnificent,
Modest.

etc

Regarding lyrics I often say some doing various tasks, like hearing Lemmy's voice saying: 'I just wanna shut it down, shut it down awwrahh' when I go to turn the computer off. Anyone else do this?

Then there’s lyrics like these.

 

[Ryokan]

Genesis (Peter Gabriel especially) are very clever lyricists: 'and I'm hovering like a fly waiting for the windshield on the freeway'.

and one of my fav's:

A well-known bognor restaurant-owner disappeared
Early this morning
Last seen in a mouse-brown overcoat
Suitably camouflaged
They saw him catch a train
"Father of three its disgusting"
"Such a horrible thing to do"
Harold the barrel cut off his toes and he served them all for tea
"Can't go far", "he can't go far"
"Hasn't got a leg to stand on"
"He can't go far"




Me, I'm just a lawnmower - you can tell me by the way I walk.

again I am almost too late with the WOW from last Wednesday. I keep getting overwhelmed with various things including the intermittent loss of my internet connection. This has hopefully been sorted by swapping out the router. I did not know that routers could wear out. I was blaming the provider but finally I spoke to someone who understood what I was telling him and he had a new router sent. I still have network issues though. Tom's computer is not seeing the network and I need it to in order to do some of the things I need to do.

Anyway... WOW (from last week... I expect a new one will be coming soon) Master

I think @groucho69 saved this one for me. I will probably attach a couple more in a bit but right now I am listening to this one.



adding a couple that Tom might have chosen... he introduced me to both of these artists

Laura Marling - Master Hunter


Sean Rowe - Looking for the Master
