Here are my week one hundred and eight recommendations for Three Tune Tuesday

** Drum roll please.....**

Aslan - Crazy World

I had already pulled the trigger on my post last week, when the sad sad news trickled through of the passing of a great Irish singer Christy Dignam following a long and painful illness. My thoughts and prayers have been with his family all week, since his sad passing on Tuesday 13th June.

What better way to remember the front man of Aslan, than playing some of their classic songs which Christy will be long remembered for. RIP auld stock.

Aslan - This Is

236,018 views, surprisingly few? That would lead me to believe that most of you have not heard of Aslan and Christy Dignam, so hopefully this post will introduce some of you to the big man.

This was their debut single and became a radio hit played all over our small country back in 1986. This led to the lads from Finglas in Dublin being signed by EMI and surely were on the way to the big time just like U2. That did not quite work out, but if I had a choice to go for a pint with Bono or Christy, Christy would win every time. He was just an
honest to goodness good guy.

Aslan - Angie (cover)

You folks are all well aware at this stage that I am typically no fan of covers and prefer to hear original songs from artists and bands, but I have always like Christy's version of Angie by The Rolling Stones. I feel this is a fitting song to say goodbye to him with too, so here you go, Angie as sang by Christy Dingham.

Three Tune Tuesday

That's right, it's Tuesday folks and for our merry little band of ladies and lads, that means sharing tunes, good vibes and engagement. As another week disappears in the rearview mirror, we have loads of engagement and tunes flying around on Three Tune Tuesday and sure isn't that bloody fantastic! I hope you're ready to share three tunes from wherever you find yourself on this magical spinning lump of rock that we all call home and sure you might even sing us a tune if we're lucky?

It's a time of the week when lovers of music, tunes and craic bring their blockchain community three of their finest and brightest tunes to share and celebrate, so let's roll on and let the tunes flow free.

This is my 108th week waxing lyrical for Three Tune Tuesday and we are still going strong.

It started off with me just sharing tunes into what seemed like a void, but little by little others joined and now I'm thrilled that we have a little corner of Hive where we come and share our tunes every Tuesday, and long may it continue. I almost stopped posting the songs and thoughts a few times, but I stuck with it and now interestingly it is my favorite thing about Hive. I love music and now I have a network of folks around the world who love music too and we share our tunes and catch up with each others tunes and discuss them each week. We get Pop, Metal, Rock, Gospel, Folk, Jazz, Rap, Hip-Hop, Trip-Hop, Reggae, Bippy bappidy Flange Hop. Ok I made that one up, but you get the idea, we are all learning about new artists, bands, back stories and sure isn't it just mighty!

Something that excites me the most is that we even get musicians sharing their covers of famous songs and even their own songs from time to time here on #ThreeTuneTuesday, which is a real favorite of mine, as that takes talent, time and dedication.

We are adding New posters and retaining our core of regulars here on #TTT which is fantastic. Let's keep it growing. Weekly, I try to find four to six hours to listen to all of the fantastic music shared from like-minded folk from around the globe and interact with their posts. This has led me to genres I don't know well and to some amazing new bands and artists and has even introduced me to some musical instruments I did not know existed. It also allows me to upvote smaller accounts and find some really interesting people from all over the world, which is heartening.

I hope you enjoy the tunes - be sure to tell me all about it in the comments below and above all else, please enjoy the rest of your Tuesday - smile at a stranger, rub a dog, be a nice human to someone who was not expecting it - peace out.

For those unfamiliar with TTT or Three Tune Tuesday....
