Pixie - Lynne's idea for the thread was that *anyone's* taste in music would be accepted & that *no-one* would be allowed to belittle another's choice. She wanted a place of harmony, where we could all share something that others might not have known about & that certainly worked for me - I learnt about Trance & Northern Soul, for starters :-)
ML loved PF, of all eras, but especially the early stuff.
Julia Dream was her all-time favourite song. I just couldn't bring myself to play it last night because it includes the line "Am I really dying", even though she would probably have laughed in my face at my shyness!
I made a suggestion on the Ed's poll that maybe a thread called "Night Night Song ♥" could be automatically created (i.e. by a bot) every night at 11 PM just to get things kicked off. The "question" posed by the bot would not contain any music, perhaps a little reminder post to us all of Mamya, and so the first bit of music would be posted in the first answer. Anyway, back to the music ...
I can't say this was one of her favourites (she would expect nothing less from me :-)).... but she did say she really enjoyed this one. So, from me to her xx

Ellipsis, I thought about Shine on you Crazy Diamond when I was thinking of Lynne last night. Love it.
My contribution is also PF. Haunting song - and quite personal to me since my grandfather was at Anzio. I stood near the bridgehead with him in 2013 when I took him to say goodbye to his mates. I know Lynne would have appreciated the sentiment. She was one of the most empathetic people ever to have posted on AB.
As Jim said above, I hope the thread continues with anyone starting it. I mentioned last night that I would occasionally do it, but am useless at thinking of new/different tracks :-)
This is brilliant of you Jim, I'd pick up the mantle but I'm not always around either... I like the idea that whomever is about kicks off the thread is a nice thought... (Patsy aside she's a veg) Xx
