The Good Stuff



There are simply two kinds of music, good music and the other kind ... the only yardstick by which the result should be judged is simply that of how it sounds. If it sounds good it's successful; if it doesn't it has failed. --  Duke Ellington

This purpose of this thread is to provide a place to post outstanding examples of the Good Music.

Speaking of good things rok2id , I could have told Putin that people fighting on their own land fight like hell .

From what I have seen on TV last night logistics have got the Ukraines those self-tracking shoulder missiles "cus it alone could blow up the 2 Russian air strikes I saw blow up!

 

No joke , If I was there I would grab an AK ., I’m still strong and a great shot .
