Los Indios Tabajaras Adios, Begin the Begining
Adios for today, as much as I want to stay and wander thru music ...with my mind begging me to continue through the sounds of our world, I must go! So Los Tabajaras, say again for me, Adios!
"Till the End of Time" Perry Como
This was one of the great voices of the 50's! Everywhere we went, our cars spurted out this music from the radio, along with Frankie Laine, Frank Sinatra, Jerry Vale, and here again is the Classical music that follows us through life in all its improvisations.

Alicia Bridges - I love the night life 1978
We have come a long way from the classical expression to the age of Disco and beyond...how can one not like this ...
Enya - Listen to the rain
Would music therapy work in prisons? Would it lift the spirits of bedridden patients , it costs little to try it. If it helps us as individuals, to overcome tough times, if it assists in the beat of our heart, why not?
BOLERO fantasy [ Music: Maurice Ravel - Bolero / 10 min. version ]
Music that brings us to outer space, after it creates a gorgeous ice dance
Torvill & Dean - 1984 Olympics - Bolero - HQ
A perfect 6 to Ravel's Bolero, the music quality is not great, but the combination of human movement , expression, to the music is my goal.
Sviatoslav Richter plays Rachmaninoff Concerto No. 2 (1/6)
here is one of the great's playing one of my favorite composers of Classical music. It is a story of the life and glory of Russia in my mind, maybe because I heard it in the background of a film about Russia, who knows? It is poetic, yearning, powerful, yet soft, it cries and sings for joy! In all the classsics you hear the human experience repeated in the music of each age, even to the deep drums of the 80's, the tinkling piano's of the 40's, etc. Music is the language of the human experience that goes deeper than words can ever hope to do.

Music is much more than we imagined, it could be. It is now becoming important to scientists to discuss the role of sound in the making of matter. New studies indicate that music can do so much more, as the "kids" say, "I study better when I am listnening to music", well it looks like they are right! No one told me I could not listen to music when I studied, but we know that some students are told in specific situations that they must go to a quiet study hall. Think about it.

How wondrous life can become for people who can no longer get out to see the world around them
I wonder if treating prisoners to this look of life outside, while using music therapy to help their emotions, would make it easier for them to recover and return to society.

The Ventures - PIPELINE
Peter Frampton, know who he is? It is just another expression of creativity, joining in an upbeat song, with other artists . Many artists are so concentrated on their art, that they miss other opportunities to be great, just look at Leonardo, perhaps one of the outstanding creators in the world, who stepped beyond one form of expression
The Ventures - Sleep Walk
Creativity, differences in expression, are even more obvious here. Do you like the chord break down? Why do some artists appeal to all, some to a few, it is all in the attraction of the positive and minus expression. This is a great rendition, a different appeal. Imagine listening to this song in all the different expressions for an hour or so. This is the world and its people easily viewed through music.
Les Paul - Sleepwalk
Les Paul, sublime to me. Music helps creativity, thinking about the sounds, the blending of the sounds, the presentation of sounds from the mind of the performer
Brian Setzer Orchestra - Sleepwalk
How does Brian do up against Les Paul?
Posting that next, as you know one of my favorite songs....
