Miles? Oh yeah... when the time is write there ain't NOTHING better than that. Good call.

Tonight, Art Garfunkel's "Breakaway". For my money, there is NO better rendition of "I Only Have Eyes For You" to be found... absolutely sublime; I listened to that song a half dozen times in a row. What an amazing voice, an amazing talent.

Recently I really enjoyed listening to the "Poetic Champions Compose" CD. Yes, a completely different time, of course, but it's still Van Morrison. The entire CD is a gem but the instrumental "Celtic Excavation" never fails to give me chills.

It's great listening when the time is "right" as well!

Quite a few weeks ago my wife & I saw a PBS broadcast about "The British Beat" and one of the bands featured was Gerry and the Pacemakers. As one could see while watching this program, a whole lot of years have obviously passed, yet Gerry Marsden can still sing pretty damn well. His versions of "Ferry Cross the Mersey" and "Don't Let the Sun Catch You Crying," especially with some nice orchestral backing, was quite memorable. So much so, in fact, that we bought the DVD from Amazon, which arrived today. Along with some other great songs from the 60's, these two songs were the highlights for us... we ended up replaying them 3-4 times.
I'm not _that_ old to remember the band as I was growing up (I have my older brother to thank for all the early-to-mid 60's music I was introduced to) but it was sure nice to hear (and see) the band doing superb renditions of a couple of classics... even in their "advanced years."
