Now, given the Foxes' ages, the band has been an on and off thing of late as the girls go off to college and get lives started. And COVID has affected their ability to get together to play. However, they have managed to reunite and get some new material out recently.

First up, one that puts the spotlight on the Fossils and is a nice bit of Can-Con. Sammie does introduce the video with some help from her beagle (who has popped in other videos as well). This is one of my favorite Gordon Lightfoot songs and the guys handle it beautifully.


And their latest, which really shows just how far this band has come. The harmonies are seamless and Maggie's vocals are spot on.

 
Bring on those heavenly harmonies! Just discovered these young Bostonians.

Anyone else coming of age when this was released? This album must be in a top 50 list somewhere.

I was like 6 when Tapestry came out so not really part of my "coming of age", but I discovered Carole later in life. For my first 6 or so years in the library all the technical services employees shared a room (a classroom in a rented school no less) and the cataloguer was a big King fan so we had it on the room stereo a lot. My first encounter with her, though I didn't know her from a hole in the wall at time, came earlier. I was a Monkees fan when the show was in syndication in the seventies and Carole and first husband Gerry Goffin wrote "Pleasant Valley Sunday" for The Monkees. Still one of my favorites of the songs from that show/band.

I was a Monkees fan too. I had sequential crushes on each one. :giggle:
 
I had never heard of this band, but loved this piece when I heard it. When I went looking for more from them, I found thier overall genre alien to my geriatric sensibilities, and very different from this beautiful bunch of horns.

I came across that thing a while ago now. Absolutely amazing, eh.
 
Just found this group on YouTube, Random Action Verb Workshop. They mostly do comedy skits, but also provide the odd song. ere's a takeoff on modern 'worship music' that's worth listening to.

LOL, this is the music at the church I go to.....usually can't wait for the singing to stop. Really wish they'd get a second choir going too..possibly with more substance.

A Summer bird. Unknown. Its song is dee dee DEEEEE. The last note is higher and longer. Sometimes goes dee dee dee dee DEEEEEE. Nutmeg and I laugh when we hear it.

Ba'aL AD ng ... is a cumulative effort! Accrue'd coer*sing! Some say at the core of the whine ... like wisps in the pines ...
 
Oh heck. Someone mentioned this song and it's become an ear worm. Exorcising it here.

Ty folx

It seems to be a single bird. Not like the racket they make when they are in a flock inna bush. The chikka dee dee dee! That is one of the few bird sounds I instantly recognize

Also Nutmeg n I enjoyed the first robin in the morning. Like when the sun was coming up or just b4. And I red that what happens is they wait atop a tall tree and only start that song when they get hit by sunlight. So soothing so early in the morn.
