@hilde45 ...chill Brah...

@glennewdick..spot on

@recluse...WORD!

@deadhead1000 .. Right on Man!

Check out the radio broadcast "Extra Eclectic" for new, exciting music.

If you dare.

is this old or new?

I dont give a damn....

It sound pretty much near the "eternal feminine soul " to me....How about Eve in the garden?

A thousand years old tradition sang nowadays how do we called that?

It is "jazz" from India to my ears....Not less beautiful than Ella Fitzgerald for sure....

Hypnotically beautiful ....

For this thread , i will change the title for: "old ears" listening always the same tunes are killing the eternally new.... 😁😊

By the way the population of India is : 1.38 billions, 4 times de US....

They have some musicians and some unknown instruments that are among the finest instruments ever created by mankind.......

How many americans confuse the simple veena, the rudra veena and the vichitra veena and the chitra veena , the sitar and the sarod?

Who know the hypnotical power of the sarangi?

I can goes on here about many thousand years old Indian "jazz" musicians.....

Dont upgrade, buy some "new" music.....😁😊

For producer Rick Rubin, The Beatles' recorded achievements are akin to a miracle.

He's not the only one who thinks that way today.

However back in the mid 60s Lennon said, as he sat at his home in Weybridge, staring (stoned?) into the distance for hours and hours doing nothing (much like like later on in the Dakota) that he must be the laziest man in Britain.

Just goes to show how times and sensibilities have changed.

From Please Please Me to Abbey Road in 7 years is one hell of a journey.

You could argue that they were lucky in that a lot of things fell for them - Epstein, Martin, EMI, the emergence of the LP as a serious art form, the kaleidoscopic background of the 1960s, but nevertheless it still looks rather miraculous.

Well said but in defense of my favorite Beatle from my youth I think his musically unproductive years were more like from 1975 through 1980. He did release four albums from the time the Beatles broke up in 1969 through 1974. Three more albums than most artists today release in the same period of time. Of course artists like Ryan Adams and others are the exception.

Plastic Ono Band, Imagine, Mind Games, and Walls And Bridges were nothing to sneeze at in that four year period. And the song Imagine is potentially one of the most powerful songs ever written.

And the artists during the 60’s like the Beatles and Stones were pressured from their record companies to release two or more albums in a year while also touring. Not an easy task.

Making it in the music industry is for only the few but for those that do make it I’d say they have an easier task in the world of streaming and not being pressured to cut an album every year or three.

I enjoy a lot of the new artists that I can hear through streaming but I’m not simpathetic if I still enjoy the music of the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s.
