Howdy from sunny Arizona
Posted by Donald F. Harrington on 07/06/2020 at 20:00My wife sent me a link to one of the Twins’ songs and I was immediately hooked. Finding out they had a back catalogue of great cover tunes to go with their amazing originals – well, as a musician myself, I’m very impressed by their versatility and virtuosity. Long live the Twins!

Welcome to the Club Don, so glad you joined. Hope you enjoy yourself much here. I agree, I love their incredible versatility and virtuosity!

Hi Don and welcome to the club. You will enjoy yourself as a member of the best club in the world. I am curious as to what the song was your wife sent you the link of. I still remember that first night I discovered them and was amazed it had taken me son long. The songs that got me hooked were their live video cover of “You’re Going To Lose That Girl” and their brilliant studio cover of the Hollies “Bus Stop”. What an amazing video!

The song was “Still a Friend of Mine”. The layered arrangement, tight harmonies, and lyrics with actual meaning (shocking!) won me over in just one song. That experience is very rare for me these days, showing I haven’t kept pace with modern music. It makes it all that more precious.

Gidday Eh there Don, , and welcome as well to here, may you enjoy all its offerings, and truly get your MLTBuzzLuvGroovy going on….
I’ve been MLTBuzzLuvGrooving for just over 13 yrs now myself, I was hooked for life from the get go when I saw their cover for ” California Dreamin ” on YouTube at the time…

Welcome Don. I have a son and grandkids down in Arizona. Great place, great people. Wonderful that you made your way here. I’ve been here a little over a year and each new song or video amazes me. It was “Drive your Car” that hooked me like a fish. I thought “Bus Stop” was cool too. Love their humor as much as their skills. Glad to have you here.

Hope your family is doing well, it’s looking like another hot summer here. :/
I’ve just been playing the MLT jukebox, one random song after another and they’ve all been good.

Hi Don,
I am kind of a newbie here, too. I live in upstate New York.
There are a lot of treasures here. I hope you stumble upon the girl’s performance of She’s Leaving Home. This amazing performance really showcases the girl’s talent(s).
I could tell you where it is, but I thought it would be better if you stumble upon it. You will find plenty of other gems on your journey through the world of MLT

We are also from sunny Arizona. We live in the Phoenix area and have been on the MLT bus for quite a few years. Even though, it is a long flight, I (Neill) cannot recommend a visit to Liverpool highly enough. At least as long as you can see MLT play live somewhere and there’s not an active pandemic. It’s a magical musical place and there is really nothing that quite brings it home like being there. Welcome!

We’ve driven through Liverpool, but we didn’t have time to do the tourist thing. It’s on our list the next time we get to England.
It’s nice that pre-pandemic British Airways offered a non-stop from Phoenix to London.

@JP, what part of upstate New York? I was born in the middle, Syracuse. I’ve stumbled on that recording – sometimes I just let the jukebox run for hours.

Hey Don,
I live in the Northern Catskills about an hour south of Albany. I grew up a couple hours north of here, but the love of a beautiful women brought me down here.

A year and a half ago I was standing on a corner in Winslow, Arizona. I may never be there again, but it was worth the trip. (Hint hint, Mona and Lisa.)
