Complete works of Chopin. Well, not in one sitting....

Great live version of this one. Hard to believe this was 48 years ago already.
Like a coin in your mint

I am dented and spent with high treason

The below comment on this song from a listener on youtube sums it up well:

The test of a song, for me, is whether it still moves me as deeply hearing it half a lifetime gone, as it did, the first time I heard it.
This is one of those rare, perfect gems.
Timeless.

Lacrimosa - Stille

Hey Rosetta!- Into Your Lungs

 

[brian64]

I took myself a blue canoe

And I floated like a leaf

Dazzling dancing, half enchanted

In my merlin sleep
Dirty was the daybreak

Sudden was the change

In such a silent place as this

Beyond the rifle range

[brian64]

These days there's so much going on

No one seems to want to know

I may be just an old soldier to some

But I know how it feels to grow old
Well do they know what it's like to have a graveyard as a friend?

'Cause that's where they are boy, all of them

I was listening to the album Appalachian Journey, with Yo-Yo Ma, Edgar Meyer and Mark O'Conner.

Here's a great tune by Stephan Foster, "Hard Times Come Again No More" that features guest performer James Taylor.

While listening to Appalachian Journey I was led to my copy of The Goat Rodeo Sessions with Yo-Yo Ma, Edgar Meyer, Stuart Duncan and Chris Thile.

This incredible performance of "Here And Heaven" features the vocal of Aoife O'Donovan, who co-wrote the song.
