The Band - The Last Waltz

Nice... It's one of my currently-listening pieces.

I'm not wild about it all, but like very much the first few songs, and the last Last Waltz suite. In fact I had a line of The Well earworming in my head and had to use Google to trace the song it came from.

Apart from the suite (what a great version of The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, eh? My gems are Joni Mitchell and Emylou Harris.

Emylou Harris... Did you see the film of the Last Waltz? What a stunning looking woman! :p



(damn good voice too :o)

Nice post
thanks for sharing
 
Made me search my head for a song I was sure was on the album The Joker.

Turned out it was on Recall the beginning, a journey from Eden! I'm now listening to that. Thanks for the Steve Miller reminder :)

Chris Rhea - Road to Hell

Probably a modern classic. Chris Rhea was sort of underrated artist in his prime.
His music looking back has so much class - bluesy rock or vice versa.

Love him... have most of his albums too. Pretty good with the guitar too.

This was a long time favorite along with Road to Hell, Auberge, Looking for the Summer, Josephine and many more.

This one is the best Instrumental score from Illayaraja after "How to name it".

The album featured veteran flautist Hariprasad Chaurasia and a 50-piece orchestra.
5th June 2010, Navin Iyer and team recreated the Magic in presence of Illayaraja, Uttham Singh etc with a 32-piece string section conducted by Prabhakar with prominent artistes such as Navneeth Sundar (keyboard), Aalaap Raju (guitar), Donnan Murray (guitar), Leon (keyboard) and Geo Raj (drums) , Haricharan (vocal) etc.

Foot note: One additional piece(6th one) written by Illayaraja for this album was used in the the film Kamalhasan's SATHYA-Song "Valaiyosai Kala kala". The Song still remains a hit worth repeat listening. Wow! it would have been a wonderful foot tapping instrumental score if got featured in the Nothing but Wind Album.
 
I am 28 now, back as a 90's kid, I still remember listening to these tracks on end, on a Pioneer Deck and Amp at my Dad's place. I only knew it was some English tracks, but never could figure out what they were singing back then! From a flash I remembered a word, 'Samurai' (which was the only thing I remember, and searched over the internet with what I had from my memory with Genre 90's disco) To my surprise I landed, up the same album, on Youtube in some time. Internet rocks! Can't express, the feeling exactly!!! I wish I were a grown up in 90's or 80's, I could have enjoyed it with the crowd then!
