Kiki Dee has always done alright by herself, but it took Elton John to make her famous to the masses (Don't Go Breaking My Heart). Her friendship with Carmelo Luggeri has made her take another Walk Of Faith and play this different (traditional) style of music, compared to her younger (jazzy) days.

Compared to what?

for a moment there I thought you were getting annoyed about something someone said :D
(Havent listened yet, I'm on an Eva Cassidy binge :up:)

Heh heh heh.  Too nice a day here in Miami to be getting annoyed at anything.  :)

As Smokey Robinson might say, I second that emotion.  :)

I'm not into country music, psychedelics, or philosphy, but it's about damn time we got some acid existentialist country.

I wasn't really in the news cycle yesterday, so I hadn't heard.  I could have done without knowing that I'm living in a world without David Bowie. :(

To drag our eyes away from the stars, perhaps something a bit more base.

Hot for Teacher.



Absolutely horrible choreography on the part of the boys from Van Halen, but the video and music more than makes up for it.



And now back to your regularly scheduled mourning...



In all seriousness... That's some f**king seriously great talent.

Sex education shouldn't be a bunch of lectures about biology after all.  I know I had an English Teacher who, if she was to teach Sex Ed the way it should be taught, no guys would drop out of the class.  Former cheerleader with great, er,  grammar.  :)

Lemmy makes breakfast:

I learned to say the pledge of allegiance
Before they beat me bloody down at the station
They haven't got a word out of me since
I got a billion years probation

Follow the path of the unsafe, independent thinker. Expose your ideas to the danger of controversy. Speak your mind and fear less the label of ''crackpot'' than the stigma of conformity.

I recommend reading through my Bio before responding to any of my posts. It could save both of us a lot of time and frustration.

Snarky Puppy strikes again! This time with Becca Stevens - who almost strikes me as a more sophisticated Annie Clark (of St. Vincent) with just a hint less "weirdness for weirdness sake" in her musicianship. Cool band. And teamed with the Puppy it's even better IMO:



Some fun instrument choices as well. Give it a listen.

Also this - some of Snarky Puppy's lineup, not performing as Snarky Puppy, but as a trio with strings. Great jazz number by Bill Laurance:

I discovered Wilhelm Kempff this week.
I also discovered Beethoven's Tempest Sonata -- via Nokia's 'Silver' ringtone which is a variation on the start of the third movement :-)

Portal - Curtain

Australian experimental death metal. Even if the music isn't your cup of tea it is worth watching just for the video - an adaptation of Edgar Allen Poe's poem "The Conqueror Worm".

Every so often you just run into something too cute for words. In this case, a young bassist by the name of Alana Alberg tackling Nathan Watts classic bassline in the Stevie Wonder song Sir Duke. And absolutely nailing it!

Very nice. I've been listening to this lately; at the time, poor Isaac Stern looks like his health is about ready to fail at any moment, but his playing proves him ever the Master. Isaac Stern & Jean-Bernard Pommier - César Franck Violin Sonata in A major - 1st & 2nd mvt https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lJ5KCcVduQE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xmAnoAyOgp4
