This Download 27 of the 70s invasion was created in the 3rd week of February 2021
( above photo of the Screamers circa '77, see our homepage and a 2nd section there for in depth reviews of this los angeles punk band that made futuristic sounds)
Assembled below for your listening and viewing pleasure are a mix of some radio classics and more obscure tracks, we've also included some documentaries related to music,...#24 is a documentary about a famous musician framed for a murder he did not commit, and we've added the unexpected as well such as Moonriver's channel of country music as sung by Japanese artists,.....futuristic pop sounds of brother and sister Kim and Ricki Wilde, ( 50s rocker Marty Wilde is their father, who was also active in the 70s writing and producing some key glam tracks of the day ).....to a few lps like Witch, rock music from the country of Zambia sung in english with a unique Rolling Stones influence, to a unique new wave band from the late 70s called Here and Now.....
Previously the page was updated after over 5 weeks of inactivity, we've added more of the unexpected.......documentaries of birds kept as prisoners, another musical documentary from '77, # 42 below....the Dum cover of 'in the mood is actually Mud incognito doing a super charged cover of this oldie,....a few obscure lps were added below, at first listen they sound like they might go nowhere, but for example the Highway record is a solid lp of classic rock well played throughout, the lp Top Drawer also is a strong lp played by an obscure band of the late 60s, and Yellow Dog features at least 2 members of Fox after they broke up without Noosha, an we also included one of her solo efforts :) Another lp we added with spiritual overtones is from spul veteran Eugene Booker McDaniels called- Headless Heroes of the Apocalypse, also added 2 downloads from Vietnamese rock band - CBC who had to flee Vietnam i. '75
Also added a trailer for the sci fi classic Soylent Green as well as the film thr Boy in the Plastic Bubble, many of you are thinking that you know those films well as you saw them many yrs ago, well we are including them here because some who come here never saw them, as we feel they are applicable for our current climate in the world....
Everyone who has been imbued with the Spirit has drawn from himself throughout the world all that is necessary to his experience. No one of himself can do it. But Spirit once it is permitted to come into our consciousness, operates in our visible experience and draws us to all that is ours, not only persons, but circumstances, conditions, books, messages, whatever is needed. If the need is for a teacher, it will draw a teacher to us from this world or the worlds that have been or the world's that are to come. Nothing is impossible to God.
You develop this consciousness by the practice of specific principles and by working with them, whether you take them in through the spoken or the written word. You will not make spiritual progress merely by reading books and hearing truth. It is what you do with that truth after it has touched your consciousness that determines the degree of your realization. You must take these truths and live with them, ponder, meditate upon them,and keep them ever alive in your consciousness until one day they will fall from the head into your
❤ heart.
After that, they are always present as a realized state of consciousness.
As we come under the guidance of a spiritual teacher and a spiritual teaching, and as we practice meditation, Spirit begins to work in us.....our attention is being turned from the effect to the Cause. Now we are gradually attaining enough enough spiritual wisdom so that as our human picture unfolds beautifully and harmoniously, we are grateful and are beginning to understand that there is an invisible Something producing the visible effect.
In Christian mysticism this presence is known as the Christ, but the term that describes It best is transcendental. There is a transcendental Presence, the Christ, within every person, but the person who is not aware of It is that " natural man" who is under the law of God. The Spirit of God, which is always present, becomes tangible to him at a particular time as he becomes aware of that which always has been there with him.
The Master never intended that one group be endowed with that divine Consciousness and the rest of the world should live off the consciousness of that dedicated group. The Master's mission was to reveal the Christ as Consciousness of every individual, that every individual might find fulfillment in the realized Christ.
Here and now,
the Christ is being established as universal Consciousness. For this reason we are witnessing something on earth that has never before existed
excerts from the book ' Consciousness is what I am 'by Joel S. Goldsmith
(( so perhaps your feeling inspired by these words you have found on this - Grand central Resource center called the 70s invasion - and want to bring the presence of God more into your life and consciousness but don't know what to do next ? Its simple, simply chant the name of God ( whatever name you are familiar with ) and go out and try doing a good deed for your neighbor, a stranger, an enemy, or someone who you wouldnt normally speak to in the street. God will recognize your action or at least your effort and repay your kindness, maybe not instantly, but someday. Here is an excellent conversation between Srila Prabhupada founder of the Hare Krsna movement and a Catholic priest named Father Emmanuel from '74, we have linked this conversation all over the site because its so good and shows a good comparison between Krsna consciousness and Christianity ))

It occurred to this mgmt here passing birds in cages for sale on the street, imprisoned, not able to fly, kept and sold, People who buy and sell birds are caught up in a horrible situation, most are probably not conscious of,
and people who keep birds as in cages also are unaware of the harm they cause......some animal activists in the past used to open their cages to their freedom in pet stores an on the street,......when we were kids we used to visit some talking birds in our local pet store and teach them cuss words. The store owner thru us out several times because the birds would repeat these words to customers.... we think all birds should be let free right Now....however there are some pet owners who keep them around but have a space or doorway for them to exit anytime an love and treat them well,so thats ok,
read this article here, the bird trade worldwide holocaust -
https://www.onegreenplanet.org/animalsandnature/the-truth-about-the-exotic-bird-trade-will-make-you-rethink-buying-a-parrot-in-the-pet-shop/
After we discussed the Bird Holocaust and Concentration Camps above we discovered this story the next day -

Jailbird.....this term comes to mind, it originated centuries ago when people were placed in giant cages suspended off the ground much like bird owners and sellers do today.
I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings......this sentence comes to mind, it was a famous book, and movie from 1979, ....what else can one do when imprisoned, the music the birds 🐦 sing brings joy to them, ( they could issue unused musical instruments to prisoners these days ) some old movie have a harmonica in the background playing in prisons, and slave labor camps.
Seems that this comparison birds to prisoners, kept in cages, restricting their freedom, goes back to ancient times, maybe because when one is freed from prison, it may be comparable to a bird taking flight, but these days too Many stories come forth about humans being released due to DNA testing and other evidence that proves their innocence after many yrs of being kept in a cage, seems there are underlying themes.here.....related. Here are 3 verses from the Bible that mention birds imprisoned -
Jeremiah 5:27
‘Like a cage full of birds, So their houses are full of deceit; Therefore they have become great and rich.
Ezekiel 19:9
‘They put him in a cage with hooks And brought him to the king of Babylon; They brought him in hunting nets So that his voice would be heard no more On the mountains of Israel.
Revelation 18:2
And he cried out with a mighty voice, saying, “Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great! She has become a dwelling place of demons and a prison of every unclean spirit, and a prison of every unclean and hateful bird.

In the Doors song ' When the music's over', Jim Morisson sang ...
For the music is your special friend Dance on fire as it intends Music is your only friend, Until the end, Until the end, Until the end
And sweetest - in the Gale - is heard - And sore must be the storm - That could abash the little Bird That kept so many warm -
I’ve heard it in the chillest land - And on the strangest Sea - Yet - never - in Extremity, It asked a crumb - of me.
Emily Dickinson
This is a real crime wherein hospitals discard people no one cares about on skid row, disoriented and into a place they are not familiar with, and with no money. Skid row is in some ways like any other place in the world. Mostly good, nice, everyday people,.....with a few bad ones somewhat out of view,lurking in corners.....so these people who sometimes have had their brains altered as they've been used as guinea pigs, others have been sedated and placed under experimental medications after supposedly winning a contest of some sorts in their town and they eventually wake up to an area full of strangers. With no money you would feel uncomfortable in most places, unless some things come freely correct ?

Well now . . . it's hard to believe you can read the daily paper in natural or digital format and read about people who tell others the words in 2021 - go back to your own country . . . ( if you really think like this,,,then were all trespassing on Native Indian Territory )
in modern times if you say these words to someone in the street, or inside a place,...immediately most everyone around you thinks you have a low iq, have been brainwashed, or are clueless as to what is truth, and what is not....and so it is
you who doesn't belong here anymore,....stop and think, do you think in 2211 people will still walk up to a stranger and say that ? . ...its a changed world within the last year, and so the enemy set out a plan to divide normal people further apart, but so it seems . .The Tide is Shifting....the past year, total complete idiots now converse in the street with people who look completely different from themselves, they realize how wrong they've been, and people 😕 are becoming wiser....the conservative wants you not to relate to others different. . Now ponder these words of old-time soulster Booker McDaniels.....on the plight of the American Indian -
They landed at Plymouth With a smile on their face They said “We’re your brothers From a far away place"
The Indians greeted them With wide open arms Too simple minded and trusting To see through the charms
Ex-hoodlums and jail birds With backgrounds of crime They had a chance to breathe freely For the very first time To drink cool clear water From clean mountain streams When taken for granted it’s not what it seems
excert from a song called " Parasite ( for Buffy )". . . yes more lyrics are there, see below for the lp from this soul singer Eugene McDaniels
