What Music Are You Listening to Now or Your Favourite Songs of All Time

this music is by my son DJ Scott Riley.

 

No Supremes, can't stand Diana Ross. She sang through her nose too much for me. She wasn't even the best singer in the Supremes, in my opinion.
She, was the only artist who mimed to a recording at the Queen's Jubilee Concert.

I've cut and pasted the contents of this jukebox. I keep a file of what's in it and another of records that at the moment aren't, it stops me buying records I already have!
It's unashamedly "girl groups of the sixties heavy," but the other jukebox has a more balanced collection of fifties to eighties pop, some doo-wop and jazz standards.

Stevie Wonder is represented. I've also in the other jukebox, the same song, by Linda Ronstadt.

DHR You have a fine record collection.
I have several LP’s and EP’s. Most have been combined to records from the 60’s to 2025… my son has a huge record collection he has uploaded new music to digital play access available on streaming service. He keeps up with new tech service downloads.

 

Nice...You son is no doubt a fan of Solar Fields, H.U.V.A., and Carbon Based Lifeforms ???

 

Thanks for that, the other jukebox has mostly pop from 50s to 80s.It holds eighty records rather than the fifty in the other one. Any teenage visitors, like granddaughters, of friends, have never seen one. I tell them "think of it as a 300lb iPod," even those are decades old now.
To think that I've over 3000 mp3s in my car on a USB stick the size of my thumbnail.


Most of my records remind me of different times in our lives. I arrange them by genre and then Christian name of the artist or the name of the group, that way individual records are easier to find. But it does mean moving them around if I change a record, so it goes in the right place. You have to have a system.

Great job DHR. Wow you have some really great music on your juke boxes. Organizing your music records in your juke box collection is a great way to access a song when needed. Makes life super easier. And music at your fingertips. Music has many memories attached thru out life.

I have 100’s of CD’s even when horse back riding training , I had a portiable CD player that had a gyroscope so bouncing on a horse did not make the CD player skip or jump or scratch the CD. Ahh the old timers we are… fun times too…I could load CD’s 5 different ones at a time played thru each one automatically for hours. I worked out the horses a lot. The horses luv music too when unplugged the ear phones. Way before we now have ear pods. It was fun to gallop along to the music wearing my “old fashioned ear phones” connected to the CD player. I worked the horses out daily for pro endurance horse racing ( raced thru mountains, rivers ,canyons— complicated horse trails ) pro competitions for many years.

I like how you used the juke box scenario referred to as a giant “IPod. All of my fav songs by my son are on my iPod still works, but now I just stream music from my iPhone wearing my earbuds when out mowing or gardening. Keeps me movin.
