Lynyrd Skynyrd: Sweet Home Alabama (Live 1976)

Lynyrd Skynyrd is from Jacksonville, Florida. They wrote this as a tribute to the studios at Muscle Shoals, Alabama, where they recorded in 1971. The studios gained fame during the '60s and '70s when it became the vogue thing for bands to record there. Artists like Bo Diddley, Aretha Franklin, and all the big Southern Rock groups recorded there. "The Swampers" were a group of studio musicians who worked there, acting as the backup band for the solo artists. That's where Skynyrd got the line: "Muscle Shoals has got The Swampers."

One of the verses is an attack on Neil Young: "I hope Neil Young will remember a southern man don't need him around anyhow." Young had written songs like "Southern Man" and "Alabama," which implied that people in the Southern US were racist and stuck in the past. Skynyrd responded with this, a song about Southern pride and all the good things in Alabama. The feud between Lynyrd Skynyrd and Neil Young was always good-natured fun; they were actually big fans of each other. Ronnie Van Zant often wore Neil Young T-shirts on stage and is wearing one on the cover of Street Survivors, the last Skynyrd album before his death.

Neil Young performed this once. He played it at a memorial to the 3 members of Lynyrd Skynyrd who died in a plane crash in 1977.

The Guess Who: Share The Land (1970 Live)

Burton Cummings singing one of the many hits for this Canadian band, The Guess Who. In later years, Randy Bachman joined. Without going into the hoopla of that story, the band became BTO: Bachman Turner Overdrive. Burton Cummings still sings today. In fact, he dated my cousin for a while (is that called "name dropping"? Hee. I just did it, then!). It's amazing the difference in the way Burton Cummings looked 40 years ago!!!!!!!! Yeah, I guess you would have to age a little, wouldn't you?

Let Go

m-flo loves YOSHIKA / let go

▶HQ◀m-floトリビュート - 清水翔太 - let go

Even if I can remember those sporadic moments where I have console beings with such melody and lyrics, as 'Wizard' puts it... "only some of us listen."

I do take my own advises often times. It is a healing process one will find gratifying if one seeks it.

More of this for future reference.

Do distinguish the difference between mercy and benevolence.

Giving A Baby Squirrel A Helping Hand

A baby squirrel is having some difficulties, even with mama trying to help. Then humans step in to help. It's a touching video, and there is a song by the group Chairlift played throughout.

Bob Seger

Bob Seger: Turn the Page

My favorite Bob Seger song. The music is from the '70's, but the filming is recent. The photos and clips are from the '70's. Great song, great performer! He looks much different from his younger years, but still doing fine! *smile*

Bryan Adams: Everything I Do (1991)

nobody@vox.com(Strive2Be) — Thu, 24 Dec 2009 19:53:30 -0800

Bryan Adams: (Everything I Do) I Do It For You (1991)

This is featured in the Kevin Costner movie Robin Hood: Prince Of Thieves, where it plays over the credits. This song was written to order for the movie, initially by American film composer Michael Kamen, with the middle eight, break, outro and arrangement added by Adams and producer Mutt Lange. Adams told Mixdown the writing process for this song: "Well, we had received a tape from my old friend David Kershenbaum with about twenty minutes of music that had been written by film composer Michael Kamen. I remember was a little fragment which we ended up liking a lot (the intro to the song). I went into the other room and read the script and told Mutt that there was a line in the film that could be an interesting angle for a title: I do it for you... an hour later we had written the whole song including the melody and middle eight in about an hour."

Light Heavy Records Releases "Speaking Of Silence"

nobody@vox.com(MusicDish) — Thu, 24 Dec 2009 13:50:50 -0800

Url: http://www.myspace.com/duvid
Sound: http://www.reverbnation.com/tunepak/2165846

Duvid's album "Unspoken" promises to be unique - each melodic post rock instrumental will be accompanied by one of his dreamy poems (written, not spoken). Peaceful. Relaxing. Cosmic. Romantic. Beautiful.

The words for:
Speaking of Silence
by Duvid

speaking of silence
mad nights of uncontrollable falling
into mysterious nameless mind fields
the echoes of a faraway child’s dreams
floating in a shimmering sea of midnight

whispering candle
unattached rainbow mirror just this side of darkness
talk to me of love and lightning
the falling leaves of autumn
and the end of coming and going

you’re a glorious hermit
concealed by dust and promises
wandering unseen
between the bright shimmering haze
and the dark velvet void

i thought i saw you there
your robes flowing, a lost silken spectrum
looking for lost travelers
floating on the waves

your eyes, a burning temple
your voice, a laughing mountain
your touch, a weeping river

i turned, and you were gone

The single "Speaking of Silence" is available on iTunes, Amazon, Rhapsody, Napster, eMusic, LaLa, Shockhound, Limewire, Nokia, Amie Street and Myspace Music.
