Here it is, for your viewing pleasure for one last time, a "sneak peek" at my Thrift Score Thursday submission for today! I've been spreading my excitement all week long on this blog and all over social media. In fact, you can probably feel my excitement through your computer screen (if you don't, check your computer because you should totally be feelin' it!), and although it might not be as exciting to you - or exciting at all - I will tell you about why it means so much to me. I love and get crazy-excited over all my thrift scores and treasures, as many of you already know. And this one? It is second in importance to me only to my vintage Steelcase industrial metal desk for $45 and $5 Steelchairs by Harter score from all the way back in 2006. So just what the heck is it, anyway? Read on...
Well...I thought I had only intentions for the new year and not resolutions. But I was wrong. As it turns out, I have quite a few musical resolutions. Let me let my playlist do my talking for me:
After a way-too-short weekend visit with the family out of state this weekend, it's time to return to the grind tomorrow. And yes, it has me feeling a bit sad. It is only fitting that the theme for this week's Monday's Music Moves Me over at X-Mas Dolly's is "the blues. Not necessarily Blues music, but songs that make you sing the blues (sad songs)." Well....I'll play along as best I can, but I refuse to listen to any sad songs. Sorry, y'all....but I don't need any help in that department most of the time! So, today you'll be getting a fully loaded post with some blues-y rock from me :)
First up....Monday, let me tell you how I really feel:
Blue Monday - Fats Domino
Traveling Riverside Blues - Led Zeppelin
Hangman Jury - Aerosmith
Ride On - AC/DC
Hello Operator - The White Stripes OMG. LOVE Jack White. LOVE.
And here's more White Stripes, because I just love Jack so so so much! This is an AMAZING performance that made me have to fan myself after watching. If you watch only one video I've posted, it needs to be this one! You may have heard the recorded version in a semi-recent Captain Morgan commercial.
Ball and Biscuit - The White Stripes (Live @ Vh1)
Okay, as much as I love Jack White and could post nothing but his videos (his sound is VERY bluesy, after all!), my last video for today is by a band with the sexiest lead singer EVER. Period. Don't even try to argue with me - I won't hear it!
