The snail is on the thorn
Can you set it as a "collaborative playlist" please?
I just tried to add this:
cheers nick
its now collaborative!
The lark is on the wing
Just added a few bits, including Brando dissing Burt Reynolds, which Baker is very fond of playing.
Lots not on Spotify, of course, including...
...and...
Belle
..of the Ball.
and Pinky & Perky theme
Then there's
The almighty:
Frenesi
This is the generic NY theme
Brilliant
THanks
This is an obscure one
Raymond Scott - manhattan Minuet
fantastic idea
amazed no-one's done this
Is that...
... a monkey dressed as a famous person (Bob The Builder, perhaps)? I don't know if there's any fairground music as I haven't played the clip yet.
Shouldn't
ELP be on this ?
Here's ELP
Here's ELP
Got any Tasty Brothers? Or
Got any Tasty Brothers? Or They Might Be Giants? Or Jimmy Buffet? Anything that keeps it Nice And Keys-y, basically.
The Elvis tapes
And in similar fashion...
Another Baker favourite - "Stevie Nicks... What the hell is she saying?"
If anyone can post
Tuva Groove by Ondar, that would be mighty. Can only find a dodgy remix on Youtube.
Hats off to Nick White
Brilliant find with The Little and Large track.
Big Youth
What's the name of the Big Youth track Dan plays regularly? Starts off with the Youth talking about the temperature. Been trying to find out for a while.
House of Dread locks
Look no further,Andy..From the Dread Locks Dread album..
Thank you
Thanks for that, have an up arrow
"If I Ruled The World" - Harry Secombe
It just occurred to me that we didn't include this - Danny has said that if any song could be his anthem, this would be it, as sung by Secombe. It's on Spotify but the playlist isn't collaborative anymore.
Nick, thank you for keeping the flag flying
I've added it!
Oh and its collaborative again. I Changed it as people kept taking things off! Crazy Eh!
Jeez, some people.
That's not cricket, and it doesn't sound like something the Word massive would do! Obviously the playlist branched out from Baker's incidental music to encompass tunes that he frequently plays, but there was no harm in that. Maybe they were taken off Spotify altogether? Anyway, feel free to uncollaborate again.
House-y tune
Can anyone help me identify the late 70s early 80s disco/house track (with little jazzy stabs on the offbeat and strings) that Danny Baker sometimes plays as incidental music (on the Sat 3rd july show you can find it playing at exactly 48.00 minutes http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00sy8gl/The_Danny_Baker_Show_03_07...)
Would be enormously grateful, has been bugging me for weeks!
It's...
Waiting for a Train by Flash & The Pan.
wow
You virtually answered before I asked...! Thanks lots.
