Hello everybody,
I am Fred and I live in Sassenheim, the Netherlands. Sassemheim is situated 30km below Amsterdam, and 10km from the coast; so easy to go for a long walk on the beach.
As many of you I found MLT via YouTube, december 2021. I was looking for Beatles and Eagles songs and what poped up MLT covers of “While my guitar gently weeps” and “Hotel Califonia”. Now I am adicted to MLT; I can never stop watching after one song/video. I do not have (yet) a real favorite song, depending on the state of mind I look the live numbers, the DUO sessions /studio nummers or the orginal songs/videos.
I have already seen the videos and fotos of the trip to Australia. The first thing I thought of was a small shop in Vienna, I visited Vienna a long time ago, selling T-shirts explaining that Austria is not Australia, “We do not have kangaroes in Austria”. I visited Austria around 30 times for a ski vacation, it was always a lot of fun. Does this mean I speak German? No, I use German words and I get my drinks and food. And I can talk a bit about the wetter, always important when you go skiing.
I got interested in the Beatles due to the boy friends, later husbands, of my olders sisteres, they had/have all albums of the early years. So when driving to Austria, 9/10 hours, I always have to listen to some Beatles music. When I am with my friends and a Beatles number is played, they come to me and say to me “Hi Fred Beatles day”. Due to the MLT covers I started again to listen to the complete albums and not only the hits.
Beside The Beatles , The Eagles and now MLT I listen to all kind of music; Fleetwood Mac, Golden Earring, Eva Cassidy, Jane Monheit, etc.
Jane Monheit also made a cover version of “Tonight You Belong To Me” on the album “Home”. When I heard MLT sing the song I thought I know that song, due the comments of MLT I now know it is already a very old song.
I already looked around in the MLT club and noticed a recipe for a smoothie; so their is more then just music. I wonder what more I will find.
I am not a musician, when I start to sing or play you will run away. So I am in the club to support good music, good/funny lyrics and fun videos, which I enjoy to listen and watch.
