The chorus of this song always stays with after I've listened to it. This is called Wind at my back by Spock's Beard.

G, Eb, C. Repeat until someone stops you. The “bones” of the final passage of Starship Trooper from The Yes Album. You’re welcome.

Interesting that it’s not so long ago you were weighing in against misogyny and domestic violence, but it’s ok for you to play a song written by a man with a history of misogyny and domestic violence?

Hyvä on - Finnish Gypsy Gospel, and being Finnish it has to be in
A minor key and sort of in a tango style. Ylle forgive the bad finnish

I went for a walk around the centre of York yesterday, for the first time in about three months. It would normally be bustling with tourists on a Sunday afternoon, but even though our lockdown is easing, things were still very quiet. Most shops were shut, but notices in some windows offered signs of hope that they would re-open soon.
One busker clearly thought there were enough people around to make it worthwhile getting his guitar out and putting his hat on the floor, and this was the song he was playing as I reached the square he had occupied. Because it was so quiet, his music echoed around for ages after I passed him, and after that it was just in my head for the rest of the day.
(Note to self - don't press record when the window is open and the postman is about to call)

Great theme.
I started thinking about what songs are often stuck in my head and the intro-riff to Layla began playing.
So, here is my rendition of Layla, based on Clapton's acoustic rendition.

Always loved this song...
I'm wearing a hat; 'cos, you know..., Ylle..., hats. Keen observers will note I'm also channelling my inner Rustyy (or is it Ukefoote?).

Thanks for planting that one in my head Paul. If I'm still singing it when my wife gets home, I could be in trouble.

A very boring man!
Throwing myself on the mercy of our glorious host with this one! Is there uke most of the way through? Yes! Is it the main instrument? Well...ahem...maybe? 
It’s the bass line in this one that’s been an ear worm for me for what seems like forever! The original is great - the cover which came some years later by a lunatic amphibian completely ruined it! This, I sincerely hope, is closer to the original!

You must have better luck than me with buskers Steve,here in Ripon UK only a few miles from you buskers on market days all seem to be very bad piano accordion players sounding more like asthmatic radiators. Of course your buskers have to be licenced don't they ? ours just drop out of a van and vanish when authority shows up.
