It's 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 Ennis to Edinburgh doing on this fine evening? Sure, isn't great to be alive all the same.
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 90th 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 three or five 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 ninety recommendations for Three Tune Tuesday
** Drum roll please.....**
Lemon Jelly - Ramblin' Man
I happened upon this funky band when I was working in my first Telecoms job after University. The guy who was training me in was a fan and introduced me to them, and to this day I still like this band and still meet him for pints when I am in his area code.
These songs really remind me of that time. Lemon Jelly were a British Electronic duo from London and they have long since packed it all in, but their music lives on and every now and then I come back for a listen and I'm never disappointed.
John, you've been on the go ever since you were born
And I imagine few people in the world today have travelled as much as you have
Now why?
Well, I dunno
I suppose some of us are cave dwellers, some of us live in houses
Some of us like to be loose footed

Lemon Jelly - A Tune for Jack
I always enjoy a good instrumental piece and although there is a little sample at the start of a lad talking about a sea elephant and the sample of the kid talking gibberish, this song is essentially instrumental. Just close your eyes, sit back and see where the music takes you deep within your mind. Go on, give it a go.
I'd love to see Fred Deakin and Nick Franglen get back together some day to both tour their old tracks and also to give us more music.
Lemon Jelly - Nice Weather for Ducks
I owe someone a thanks for the inspiration for this #ttt set, as they reminded me by playing a similar band back in January some time, but I can't remember which of you legends it was, so thanks whoever it was.
Let me leave you today with this little gem and one of my all time favourites from Lemon Jelly.

Ah - lovely. I was listening to LJ just yesterday. ('64 - '75)
And I have the Lost Horizons Vinyl on my shelf - it seems to be worth something now, who'd've thought?
Right. Going to make a coffee and think about my own #ttt post for today...
No way, that's gas, what are the chances.. and Lost Horizons Vinyl worth a few Bob, that's mighty, happy days 😀
What an amazing tunes you have brought on the 90th week. I am wondering what would be celebrated if we clock 100th week 😅😅 a big achievement. Isn't it?
Happy Valentine, @ablaze 😎
Thanks a million, Lemon Jelly are unusual but great easy listening music, as for week 100 coming up, I really can't believe it
I like the sound but I feel a little bit left out that Netherlands is in that list twice but no German city 😝
But I have to admit I dig the British accent at the beginning.
!LOL The Tune for jack sounds to me like what we describe here as "Fahrstuhlmusik" (Elevator Music). Beautiful background music. Gives me a 70's relax vibe. Might just be me loving movies from that 60's-70's time.
Interesting band, never heard of them before. Fun fact: Just tried to google "Lemon Jelly" and got lots of pages to buy shoes. 🙄
Ha ha you'll have to launch an official complaint to the band!
Ya good way of describing their tunes actually 👌
So did you buy any new shoes?? 🤣🤣
Nope 😝

It's neem a while since I listened to some Lemon Jelly and mostly some chillout mixes that exist. Nice selection.
Ya man, they are great chill out music and a bit random too which I like.
I was gonna say I never heard of these guys and then I heard the all the ducks are swimming in the water and I laughed. Some tune!!
Ha ha, ya quality tune, they have some great stuff, a bit off the wall like, but decene tunes 👌
I really enjoyed the second one... until the kid in the middle of it ruined it.
Why.. Whyyyy??? :|
But I definitely will check out some other songs :)
Edit:
I knew it! I knew I know them from somewhere.
"His Majesty King Raam" - long long time ago, when Spotify probably didn't exist yet I had it on my playlist :) It is back on it now :D
I'm so used to that song over the years that I kind of like that little interlude! 🤣 Nothing like a few decent tunes with ones for every mood
Nice one, thanks a million @ewkaw and @qurator
Great tunes you've brought 😍
Thanks man
