#TuneTuesday #TheBubble Music that makes you forget everything around you and closes you off to the outside world. So many to choose from so I randomly chose a band in my collection and chose my favorite song. The Church - Reptile https://youtu.be/x6Mx5xKOMAk

Another pick for this week's #TuneTuesday theme, #thebubble. This otherworldly early seventies classic is probably a fairly obvious choice for a Finn: Pekka Streng & Tasavallan presidentti: Sisältäni portin löysin (1970) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iP1tcsVoFOU Pekka Streng (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pekka_Streng) was still a quite obscure cult figure during my teenage years in the early 1980s. I think I may have read about him in Esko Lehtonen's "Suomalaisen rockin tietosanakirja" ("The Encyclopedia of Finnish Rock") before I actually heard this record for the first time on the radio. I do remember that bought a reissue version of his second album ("Kesämaa", 1972) at the very first record fair I ever attended, at Lepakkoluola in Helsinki back in 1987. #pekkastreng #finnishmusic #progressiverock #progrock

This week's #TuneTuesday theme is #thebubble, songs that make you forget everything around you. Somewhat paradoxically - given the lyrical content - this one does it for me: Marvin Gaye: What's Going On (1971) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-kA3UtBj4M #marvingaye #motown #tamla #motown
