Landmark moment in music!

[earlfor]

I've sadly not had an instrument since leaving Branson, it'll be nice to be back in NC to enjoy stuff that's closer to the roots. In that vein you might like this gal, a 19 yr old young lady playing the music her grandparents. It doesn't get any more real than this!

I prefer Muriel Anderson https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GNjAhEz0DGM

Hear, hear! In a similar vein, Holst's "The Planets" was impressive from a sheer musical perspective, but Bach, Beethoven and Mozart are actually wonderful to listen to.

Going to a well respected orchestral venue is much like attending a church service, the *listening* aspect being front and center.

On the other hand there's a participatory aspect to groups such as Angine de Poitrine that invites the crowd to join in on the vibe that adds just that much more to the show. I'll never forget the farewell show of some friends of mine who had a rather influential surf punk act in Detroit, it's as if the entire venue was tuned in to each other that night.

You can't hardly describe it to someone who hasn't experienced it. My daughter, who was a student at a prominent arts academy and accomplished musician in her own right experienced it that might for the first time, quite magical!

I will agree that live experiences definitely help you connect with the artist. I can't really stand any "Van Hagar" music, but when I saw Sammy and the Wabos live... that guy can really rock and I had a new respect for his music.

I listen to a lot of classic too. Although, when I want to really sit back and closee my eyes, it's Stephen Wake. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oepwEOZvYcU

I'll stick to having fun again.

Fluffy Arabian Cat Disease, it's only two minutes which is good since I'd hate to induce an Argonne Energy overexposure

Even the New York Times is getting in on the fun! My only regret is that Diogenes isn't alive to hear this.

Here's the entire KEXP presentation, about 27 minutes long. There's a number on there called Sherpa which really highlights the Microtonal aspect, has a very Sitar type feel to it.

Thanks for nothing, Lab.

Only two? Always remember, too much is ALWAYS better than not enough! Keep retraining the sacred YouTube algorithm by continuing your journey here;

"too much is ALWAYS better than not enough..."

Hmm...almost sounds like a Grateful Dead lyric.

And I think that we can all agree that these are MUCH better than The Beatles.

Polka dots!

Polka dots!

People say this sounds like something you'd hear at a Polish wedding but I don't remember my great grandmother having anything that sounded like this in her record collection, just typical polka stuff. Sounds more like something your folks might have been listening to, I'll let you be the judge.

To be fair, i gave it a second chance. i can't stand to listen to that. I find it extremely annoying noise.

Earlier in the thread I diverted attention away from the fact you didn't like it and I get it, it's not everyone's cup of tea. For some reason now you want to continue with the HATE. So I'll ask you this question Earl, what part of maintaining a mindset of hate suits you?

I tried about three times. Couldn't stay on board for more than a few seconds. Those costumes did NOT help! (I also refuse to listen to, or look at KISS.)

I understand when the proprietor of a Hamburg club told The Beatles in 1961, "mach shau" (make a show). Entertain the customers.

But he meant 'be more lively, interact with the crowd.'

When I went to see Hot Tuna, the Dead, CSN&Y etc in the early 70s, it was to hear the music and see it being made, not for cosplay. Out of perhaps half a million people who saw Simon & Garfunkel at Central Park (I was there), I highly doubt that even a single person said, "Wow! Did you see what Art was wearing?"
