Help Me Identify This / Little Ray of Sunshine (1971 alternate version) by Axiom
« Last post by dwids on Sun 04 Nov 2018 15:48:20 »
Anyone know anything about the alternate recording that came out about a year after the original/single?  It seems to be slower too.  It was on their final album "If Only" (1971)   Update: YouTube link not working properly; it should jump to the track at  29:23  :thankyou1:

Just another wat for the supermarkets, etc. to get into your wallet - farcical - and the kids 'celebrating' it have absolutley no idea what it's about...  I shut the front gate and let the dog into the front yard - works really well...

Anyone else absolutely fed up with this Amerikun import?

Bloody kids knocking on your door, begging for sweets. You don't know what allergies they may have, so you have to be ultra careful about what you have on hand. Normally sane people dressing up in insane garb.

And it's not just a problem here. 2 weeks ago we were in Scotland, and the same thing was happening there. Just about every pub and shop had a halloween display set up. I asked one of the locals if it was a local tradition, but no, they imported it from the good ole USA as well. And most people there hated it as well.

Why do we adopt these bizarre foreign celebrations?

Lets have a Winge / Re: Oktoberfest
« Last post by Beergut on Mon 29 Oct 2018 01:30:40 »
It's a great party alright Jink, and plenty of things on offer apart from the beer.

We were there 2 weeks before Oktoberfest, and driving to our apartment, when we passed the grounds and noticed the tents and sideshows being erected. I was a bit pissed that our GPS had taken us right into the heart of Munich and not around the edges on the ring route like I'd expected. Doubly so as we should have had a green environmental emissions sticker on our windscreen to be so close in; whith at the time we didn't. Still we got through unscathed.

We also visited Hofbrauhaus again, just off the town square. It was packed to the gills again, just like last time, but we eventually found a couple of spots on a table with Germans from Stuttgart. As you do on these occasions we became instant friends. It was great to sit and watch the Chinese and other Asian tourists walk in and see their jaws drop as they took in this uniquely German place. And to revel in my first rotisseried pork knuckle in 6 years. Bloody beautiful!

We also did the massive beer hall in the middle of the English Gardens, for yet another litre or two of beer and a second pork knuckle. All in all a great time to visit before the rush of Oktoberfest.

Glad you loved it mate: we did too last time. Just a little perplexed as to why you've put this in the "winge" section....

Just checking back in again after experiencing an Oktoberfest in Germany.


Currently still in Europe.



Beergut, it’s true. It is one big party for adults, with lots of people having an awesome time, as you had mentioned.


No antisocial issues with huge numbers of people happily drinking on the streets of Munich.


Got to sit at various tables meeting locals and overseas visitors, enjoying the food, music and 1 litre glasses of beer.


MrPurser, I also visited the historical Hoffbrahaus (HB) along with the large Augustine Keller beer garden/house. Just surprised at seeing how much seating there was at the Keller with 6 000 seats.


All in all a memorable time.
