Don't know if it's happening in Montreal,but feels appropriate with the recent news
That was a good version. Soul with nice black women, I like that a lot. I remember the Mick Jagger version with Bowie, it was ok, I think they needed money, don't ask me why.
But The Carpenters did that song in their beginning when they were a fast tempo jazz trio. After that they found their niche with the slow mellow romantic melodies and sold millions and millions of records.
But we forget how good Karen Carpenter was on drums.

They were not my cup of tea,but respected them nonetheless. Sad what public perception compelled Karen to withstand and pay the price.
Mick and the boys had a good tune pertaining what you mentioned earlier.

Imagine today with fentanyl being laced into it.
Any chance the story was intertwined with the movie '' The French connection''

The version of Dancing in the streets by the Carpenters wasn't a good one tbh. I posted it just for the curiosity. Fast tempo jazzy songs never became popular. To compare, Zappa did some really good stuff mixing jazz with funk, hard rock and doo-wop. Steely Dan is probably the best group ever to make the perfect mix of jazz, soul and rock. And it was accessible, complex and simple in the same time. One of the best group for radio listening.
When they were popular, I never liked the Carpenters. I saw their story when there was nothing else on tv few years ago and the story of Kanen becoming anorexic at the end almost made be cry. In that kind of music, they were great. Their melodies were stucked in my memory of the 70's.
Back to the Stones, this is probaly their best album. Warhol did the design, that was good R&R, dirty, a bit improvised. In this album there is a lot of their biggest hits.
But nothing beats Abbey Road.

Sure about that? think I should have chosen this one. People sure are super sensitive nowadays aren't they,really should lighten up some.

Le Chat Noir, mid to late 70's. Great bar with a jukebox blaring this and the dance floor rocking. Tables full of beer bottles and hash.
Ahh, the good old days

I saw them live at the Bell center in 2005 ( I think) , opening for Queens of the stone age and Nine Inch Nails. Not a bad night out ! I'd literally just gotten their first album and I didn't even know they were a two man band till the show started

I was playing them at work once and my buddy from Toronto got all hyped and said they were his first ever concert. Sadly I've never got the opportunity myself.

If you are buying Kanye albums you deserve to get ripped off.
