Belated but warm Merry Christmas and Happy times ahead to you, Tony. Good to hear from you. Best in the New Year too.
Happy New Year! I'm wondering whether you have the newspaper comic character "Ziggy" there? I have never known a real person named Ziggy.
Happy New Year Postcardy.Well....his real name is Michael Janus Zygmond Zimnoch but was always (even pre-dating David Bowie)called Ziggy for short.
Ziggy for me will always be David Bowie.
Hope you had a good Christmas Tony. Happy New Year!
Awesome post, loved seeing your brother too! Great music video as well. I'm wishing you all the best in the new year as well!- Karen S.
Had to come back to say what a great video that is. I love old footage and there was, maybe due to the soundtrack, a melancholy seeping through. wonderful post. made me think of what I was doing in '67... Happy New Year, Tony!
Teresa! & A Happy New Year To You Too,fellow soundclouder! x

Thanks for sharing "The Sea to the Land Beyond" video. It made me wish for seafaring ancestors, or at least ancestors who lived near the sea. The music was very ethereal. I hope PBS in the U.S. will show this BBC program when it becomes available. Happy New Year to you, Tony.
