Its Saturday night and we have taken ourselves way too seriously this week and so I propose a music thread...
Post up to three songs that you listen to while hiking, that gets out out of the now and thinking about hiking, or that you just enjoy.
The first poster on each new page (#1, #41, #81, #121, etc) gets to set the musical theme for their page.
And Page 1 will be cover songs... enjoy.

Karl,
Great tune! Love all the selections, but Pink Floyd takes me way back. For the trivia minded, Dark Side of the Moon is one of the best selling albums of all time and has sold in excess of 40 million copies worldwide. Today it still sells several thousand copies per month. Thanks to all for the good sounds.

Thanks July for the link. It strongly reminds me a group called Cold Blood and the song Too Many People which I heard back in 1971---female vocals and trumpets---

Thank you for the distraction Tuckahoe64!
Only so much reading the youth are destroying the trail. Close down Baxter Park! Re-route the trail! HYOH is ruining the trail!

Just switch out the ocean for the mountains. This kid has some major talent as only being a 19 year old kid from Australia. He is a great surfer also.
Enjoy!

Lydia Pense!!!
I'm an old fan of Cold Blood. ;)
First off great idea, I guess I'm closing out this page. I'm gonna like this thread though. I thought I had some great ideas because I listen to music all the time while hiking, but thinking about covers gave me a headache for a second. These are covers of (in order) songs by The Kinks, Bob Dylan, and Dick Burnett.

Is there a particular viewer I need to download to listen to video through WB. They play but no sound :(

I don't think so. Are you able to watch videos on youtube which most of these links are from? I'm on a MAC and whenever I visit sites and have issues getting a video to play i get a popup stating I need to upgrade my media player. Hope this helps.\
Whoops miss read your post. The videos are playing but no sound. Kind of weird. I'd still got youtube and see if the sound plays there.
You Discerning music Connoisseur...:)
I will follow this with, I guess I am being moderated on this site, with the delay. Frustrating, to say the least...

July - How does Tipi have so many posts everyday? I mean its winter time? Shouldn't he be holed up in some ice cave with no service on his cell phone, iPad/tablet, or possibly laptop? Isn't that why he hikes in the middle of winter. No social interaction? Guess whiteblaze.com is okay. Only thousands of members here?

You Again?
Just me again. What did you think of the song / artist I posted? Not bad! It makes me fell like I'm in the woods or the ocean.
Tipi has lost family member and is sick with the flu. Hopefully not the new super flu that the the vaccine does nothing against.

July - I can fell for Tipi. My non related aunt that has been my moms best friend for 99% of our lives and all but my first 3 months of life was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer 2 years ago. She was given 4 months to live. She has made it 1.5 years longer than the doctors said she would. its gotten much worse and she's now in hospice now. She has fought the whole way. To hear her say she is dying in the last couple weeks is just devastating. It just hurts to go visit. I try not to break down in front of her. I guess tomorrow I need to visit again. I hope the pain she's going thru is controlled by the pain killers.
Music can be a healer, a release from the pain, and whatever else it does for those in celebration or in mourning!
Thank Goodness for Hik'in and Friends!!! Johnny we willbe gonna watch'in you.

I get audio just fine on YouTube JS, it is just on WB that I get no audio. I'll check to see if I need to upgrade YouTube though. Thanks!!
