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 96th 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....

The jist is as follows

Every Tuesday I'm going to share 3 songs which I like to listen to and I invite your feedback in the comments below. Better still, why not have a blast of your own Three Tune Tuesday and mention me in the post and I'll come and find the post and upvote it. If you could also use #threetunetuesday tag that would be great, as that is what I use when sifting through all the entries every Wednesday. It'll be a sweet way for us all to discover new music. You'll also be in with a chance of winning the prize - more on that later.

Here are my week ninety six recommendations for Three Tune Tuesday

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

Simon & Garfunkel - Patterns

I have an excellent book that has 1,001 classic albums recommended in it, so for week 95, I decided to leaf to page 95 and pick the album on this page. I bought the book many years ago. At least a decade ago. Maybe even close to two decades!

I'll admit that Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme was not in my collection,but having just listened to the album now again, it had every right to be as it is a catchy little album. Imagine England won the Football world cup the year this was realeased, so suffice to say its a looooooooooooong time ago!

Simon & Garfunkel - Homeward bound

Another favourite from Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme was Homeward Bound, which I heard played at a funeral before and it was very fitting. Bob Johnston produced this album which was released by Columbia Records. It was their third album and one of their best in my opinion.

Simon & Garfunkel - A Simple Desultory Philippic (Or How I Was Robert McNamara'd into Submission)

I'll close out with this classic, which I've always really liked, hopefully ye do too. Thanks to the big book for the inspiration. It won't be the last time I use it for inspiration I'd say.

Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme is a short album clocking in at just 28 minutes 6 seconds, so take a half an hour some day to have a listen. It won't disappoint.

ThreeTune Spotify Playlist

Our good friend and occasional Three Tune Tuesday poster @blackdaisyft added some tunes to a playlist in the early days and there are around 600 tunes there which is class. You can check those out here:

Great stuff! I remember when we got a record player in 1971 the 'Bridge over troubled water ' album and the soundtrack from Oliver were the first two LPs we got.

 last year  

No way, that's really cool to hear. That lucky record player got a great start in life with them LPs.

I grew up listening to Simon and Garfunkal as my mum was a fan. Homeward bound was one that was played a lot. It sure brings back memories.
The sound of silence was a favourite of my sisters and will always remind me of her xxx

 last year  

That's lovely, music is great that way, it can transport us and bring us back to a time and a place and remind us of loved ones taken too soon ❤️

haha, that's a great way to choose songs for the week! I am also as random at times.

These are definitely some great old songs, aren't they? I remember I used to be saddened that they didn't record more, but now I feel that if they had, they would not have left music on their own terms and on such a high note (no pun intended)

 last year  

Ya I like coming up with random ways to seek out the three tunes for any given week and I think I might do this for a few weeks and remember some classic albums along the way.
