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 97th 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 seven recommendations for Three Tune Tuesday

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

Thirteenth Floor Elevators - You're Going to miss Me

This week I once again turned to my trusty book for some inspiration. It's week 97, so I leafed to page 97.

Here is what we landed on for the week, Thirteenth Floor Elevators and their 1966 album The Psychedelic sound of the Thirteenth Floor Elevators. We'll kick things off with the album opener You're Going to miss Me, probably their best known song.

Thirteenth Floor Elevators - Levitation

This one is from their second studio album Easter Everywhere and is track 19 out of 20. It is not from this album on page 97, but page 97 did give me the inspiration to post about The Thirteenth Floor Elevators.

Here we can hear Tommy Hall's famous electric Jug forming the backdrop to a quality tune.

Thirteenth Floor Elevators - Slip Inside This House

I'll leave ye with this one from the crooners from Austin Texas. An interesting nugget of info is that Spacemen 3 covered some Thirteenth Floor Elevators songs over the years, a fact that I'm certain Spacemen 3 superfan @sagesigma is well aware of.

Wow! These songs really do all scream "1960s", for sure. A few more decades and you'll be back to my music!

You can never go wrong with the Elevators or the Spacemen!

Knew they'd be up your street!

Nice one Ablaze! 97 is a great number! Great to see so many people joining in the fun on a Tuesday. It is my favorite day on Hive too, getting to listen to new tunes and see what other people are listening to.

Very psychedlic this week, I didnt hear these before. The last one really cool.

This one is totally new to me. This is why I love so much ttt. I'm sorry I've missed a few weeks.
Cheers!

Wowser this is a different set of songs for this week... I can't say that it's my usual style of music hehe... would take a lot of getting used to for me... If anything I could see the last one perhaps growing on me...I still have it playing as I write up this comment and it's not too bad. I can also appreciate their efforts at video effects for the time - psychedelic mindbenders...

So great to see #threetunetuesday going strong. Sorry I've been away so long @ablaze . I came across an artist last week that blew me away... and I went down a rabbit hole for hours reading up on his life struggles (he is only 33!) and listening to his music. He's a Welsh lad who lives in Brighton, England now. I just had to put a post together to share his music and his depth and perspective with others... so here we go...
