Song: Travellin'
Artist: Jeremy Spencer Band
Entered the "Billboard Adult Contemporary Chart" (U.S.): December 15, 1979
Artist Info: Jeremy Spencer was an original member of Fleetwood Mac (1967-1971).
I wonder how many of you (above a certain age) will remember this song as soon as you hear the first few notes, or at least the chorus line. It should have charted much higher than it did (IMO). It might have done so if it had been released a few years earlier, because it has the mellow, laid-back "feel" of the early to mid 1970s to it (the reason I like it so much), maybe similar to some of America's greatest hits. I rediscovered it in 2011 and immediately recognized it, even though it had probably been over 30 years since I had last heard it. As I listened to it, I couldn't believe I had completely forgotten it (thanks to radio stations no longer playing it after only a few weeks or months).

"It's finally here: rain season, time to love quietly, to empty the closet again while the pages of the calendar fall away without making any noise... time to forget the boat at the pier... She seats at the table, he just listens, knowing there is no need to utter a word... come close to the fire, there's just enough space for both of us"

Fear of the Dark (Iron Maiden) — Lydia and Constantinos Boudounis
I first watched this video 4 or 5 years ago (2015-16). I don't care for the original at all, but this cover is a masterpiece. I've listened to it many times since.

That is absolutely lovely; thank you for sharing it with us.
A timeless classic, one that never ages: Buena Vista Social Club.
Steely Dan - Reelin’ in the Years
Becker on bass...? Am I wrong? Maybe that is him on guitar...
I always assumed he played guitar on this one...

I think it's bass....although he seems to be playing it like lead. According to wiki he played both bass and lead in that time period.
Yeah the more I watched the video the more I thought it was him on the bass.
It's hard to tell long haired, balding men from one another... lol
