  5. 🧵 1/3

    Every Sunday I look back at the preceding week in Kpop and pick out a music video or performance that I have particularly liked. This week I have chosen Fifty Fifty – Midnight Special.

    Earlier this week I posted about Fifty Fifty – Midnight Special, linking to the MV:

    Not that long afterwards, I was thrilled to see this performance video.
    Both the beat and the vocals appeal to me, and watching beautiful idols dressed in black dance to a song I like delights me. But wait (do they still have infomercials with these lines?), there’s more!

  6. I've been going through the Midnight Special archives from the 1970s that are being published on YouTube. Lots of great stuff, including this 1974 video of Charlie Rich performing one of his signature tunes, "Life's Little Ups And Downs". Written by his wife, Margaret Ann Rich, the song had originally been a minor country hit for him in 1969.

  7. Today is Huddie Ledbetter's birthday and this year marks 75 years since his death. His influence on #folk #blues and #rock can't be understated from Nirvana's 'Where Did You Sleep Lastnight' to Ram Jam's 'Black Betty', Dylan, Van Morrison to the Stones...

    Many thanks to the #midnightspecial radio show #chicago for spinning my version of 'Out on the Western Plain' as part of their Lead Belly tribute today
