Boy George and culture club, as great and fabulous as they ever ever wore, and ever are, and ever will be forever and ever always!
I saw a Boy George and culture club in 2022, my awesome cousin took me to see them at some hotel resort in Pennsylvania somewhere. Boy, George and culture club did not disappoint at all, they did their hits a lot of them and also because there’s artists in the music industry they also treated us their fans to some new stuff too, which is always enjoyable and exciting at the same time. Unfortunately, on this gig, while this show rather original drummer John Moss was not there now he is not out of the group bios any stretch of the imagination no it is there was a substitute for him at that night. He still a member of culture club.

A Sixth Selection Of Ten Essential UK & Irish Folk Music Songs From 1960s-1980s
Introduction I need to be a little more careful in my song selections as I repeated one in Episode Five (Link at the end of this article) but I have to be thankful for the suggestions from the members of UK & Irish Folk Music 60s-80s for their suggestions of artists who have slipped my mind and artists I have never heard of. I had been particularly remiss in my lack of coverage of Welsh Folk.

An Album That Will Never Let a "Devotee" Down Again
A band that is not afraid to experiment with new sounds, the new wave alternative, electronica band Depeche Mode has evolved vastly with their music style. You can hear evidence of this change in this compilation album I'm going to review. For instance, the tone of “Just Can’t Get Enough” is noticeably different from “Enjoy the Silence”.

Holly Jolly Christmas Coins
So it’s the season of Christmas. The mass media loves to erase thanksgiving, but I digress.Yes it has a sorted history, but it is still funny to see. Also there’s no money in that holiday. So I understand why they move on to Christmas so fast. Now with all this holiday cheer, comes the music we listen to every year.The same standards we have on rotation during this time good or bad, sung by everyone under the sun. The one artist who’s taking this Christmas music thing to the bank is Mariah Carey! She’s the only one who really cashed in on this holiday every year. The queen of Christmas as she’s called, who by the way just extended her run at #1 with “All I Want For Christmas Is You”at 16 Weeks on the Billboard Global 200 Chart. This season is so synonymous with her who knows if we’ll ever get a “regular” album from her again. At this point she doesn’t need to, and my question is why aren’t other singers doing the same thing?

Introduction Peter Guy said this in a comment on the story below: It’s ascribed to various blues singers I think, that “all music is folk music, at least I never heard a horse sing” or words to that effect.
