Boom Boom Boom Boom Boom Boom Boom go the days, one following the next and we land back at a favorite day amongst a few of the Music heads here on Hive. That's right: Tuesday folks and for our merry little band of ladies and lads, that means sharing tunes, good vibes and engagement. As another week disappears in the rearview mirror, we have loads of engagement and tunes flying around on Three Tune Tuesday and sure isn't that bloody fantastic! I hope you're ready to share three tunes from wherever you find yourself on this magical spinning lump of rock that we all call home and sure you might even sing us a tune if we're lucky?

Tuesday is here again, which can only mean one thing, another three tunes from me and hopefully from lots of you good folks too. How are all of you music loving rockers from Quignalahy to Quebec doing on this fine evening? Sure, isn't great to be alive all the same. Yet another week this week, where we have gone above 30 unique Three Tune Tuesday posts and man oh man, that brings a serious smile to my face!

It's a time of the week when lovers of music, tunes and craic bring their blockchain community three of their finest and brightest tunes to share and celebrate, so let's roll on and let the tunes flow free.

This is my 73rd week waxing lyrical for Three Tune Tuesday and we are still going strong. It started off with me just sharing tunes into what seemed like a void, but little by little others joined and now I'm thrilled that we have a little corner of Hive where we come and share our tunes every Tuesday, and long may it continue. I almost stopped posting the songs and thoughts a few times, but I stuck with it and now interestingly it is my favorite thing about Hive. I love music and now I have a network of folks around the world who love music too and we share our tunes and catch up with each others tunes and discuss them each week. We get Pop, Metal, Rock, Gospel, Folk, Jazz, Rap, Hip-Hop, Trip-Hop, Reggae, Bippy bappidy Flange Hop. Ok I made that one up, but you get the idea, we are all learning about new artists, bands, back stories and sure isn't it just mighty!

Something that excites me the most is that we even get musicians sharing their covers of famous songs and even their own songs from time to time here on #ThreeTuneTuesday, which is a real favorite of mine, as that takes talent, time and dedication.

We are adding New posters and retaining our core of regulars here on #TTT which is fantastic. Let's keep it growing. Weekly, I try to find two or three hours to listen to all of the fantastic music shared from like-minded folk from around the globe and interact with their posts. This has led me to genres I don't know well and to some amazing new bands and artists and has even introduced me to some musical instruments I did not know existed. It also allows me to upvote smaller accounts and find some really interesting people from all over the world, which is heartening.

I hope you enjoy the tunes - be sure to tell me all about it in the comments below and above all else, please enjoy the rest of your Tuesday - smile at a stranger, rub a dog, be a nice human to someone who was not expecting it - peace out.

For those unfamiliar with TTT or Three Tune Tuesday....

The jist is as follows

Every Tuesday I'm going to share 3 songs which I like to listen to and I invite your feedback in the comments below. Better still, why not have a blast of your own Three Tune Tuesday and mention me in the post and I'll come and find the post and upvote it. If you could also use #threetunetuesday tag that would be great, as that is what I use when sifting through all the entries every Wednesday. It'll be a sweet way for us all to discover new music. You'll also be in with a chance of winning the prize - more on that later.

Here are my week seventy three recommendations for Three Tune Tuesday

** Drum roll please.....**

The Doobie Brothers - Long Train Running

I tried something different in week 67, when I boarded my mind's time machine with the help of Youtube and brought you folks three tunes from the year 1967, so this week I am going to borrow from this tradition, and this time in homage to week 73, I'll bring you a triplet of tunes released in the year 1973. Ok then, let's kick thing off with an all time favourite of mine from the Doobie Brothers.

Released on March 28th 1973,this song takes one second precisely to get going and is just velvet on the ears from the get go. I am shocked that this did not top the charts around the world, what an absolute banger of a tune from the men from San Jose, California. This is a song I simply never tire of and it makes me want to get up and dance, and then you have the central theme of Love and without where would we be? A good question indeed, we'd be brown bread folks, brown bread, it's all about the love - love for your family, friends, strangers, animals, the planet, life - we are all so lucky and just standing up and being able to draw breath is a miracle and we can all sometimes lose sight of that, life is so simple if we just let it be.

Jungle Boogie - Kool & The Gang

Another absolute beaut of a tune from 1973 and again if you don't like this one, I have a friend who is the best Ear surgeon between Portumna and Ballinasloe and I am sure I can get you some new ears, just tell him @ablaze sent you.

I must admit though that I only first heard this song when I saw Pulp Fiction for the first time. What a movie and what a soundtrack. For anyone reading this who hasn't seen Pulp Fiction, do yourself a favour and go and watch it, classic Quenten Tarantino and indeed check out any of his movies, the majority of which are top notch stuff. Now back to the Boogie..... Get down... Get down..... Jungle Boogie!

The Eagles - Desperado

I will finish the set with a quieter one, but a great one nonetheless. This was a toss up between Desperado and Angie from the Rolling Stones, but I settled on Desperado in the end. Released on April 17th 1973 and most likely played one trillion times since, put that in your pipes and smoke it recent Pop sensations! They don't make em like they used to folks, and 1973 was not a bad year at all based on this trio from back in the day.

ThreeTune Spotify Playlist

Our good friend and regular Three Tune Tuesday poster @blackdaisyft added some tunes to a playlist in the early days and there are around 600 tunes there which is class. You can check those out here:

I feel like a two year old dancing in the middle of a smoky living room when I hear these songs.

It's funny how when we get older we adopt some of the same dance moves and grooves.

Ha haha ha, have you been watching me at the two weddings I attended recently!? Ha ha

Am totally with you on Pulp Fiction being where you heard Jungle Boogie first. One of my topfive films for sure!

Some good tunes here, Doobie Brothers and The Eagles. I hadn't heard the Doobie Brothers song for years.

Thanks a lot, glad you enjoyed the 1973 themed tunes...

Ohhhh Long Train Running! Thanks for sharing :-) Didnt hear for ages! Didnt know its so old, think to remember it was played round and round much later?

Now I remember the last time I heard "Jungle Boogie" was with my kids watching this Muppet Video. Not exactly Kool and the Gang, but still something to Celebrate.

!LOL

My friend got a heart transplant but regretted it immediately.
You could say he had a change of heart.

Great picks as always man :) Long train running is one of those songs you definitely recognize after about a minute, yet you're not sure from where (at least, for me) sure did deserve more recognition, a banger indeed!

Thanks for the taste of 1973, and the honorable mention from last week 😁
