Sandy Denny. She was erotic, chilling, melodic, more things than I wish to say about a woman. These live cuts have some glitches and a bit of Sandy off-key at a point or two. But it gives you an idea about what Sandy was about. Look under her name or Fairport Convention for her produced products. The best voice since Nina Simone in her time. She is gone now.

Maciel was the guy on "Mother Popcorn", and I'm pretty sure he goes back as far as "Night Train." He did his own album afterward, of which I still have the vinyl. | |

If you have access to the "Pump Up The Volume" soundtrack, it's on there. I'm looking at it right here on my desk. It's a very "upbeat" version of the original.....the guitar at the beginning will blow your socks off. Make sure and turn up to stereo! You may be able to find it on a peer to peer music site. I've not looked for it anywhere other than youtube because I have it on CD. Mark | |

Filled to capacity and too warm, but fabulous!!!! My 12 year old niece wore her David Archuleta to shirt (like most 9-13 year old girls). Each of the ten finalists sang 3 songs. David Archuleta and David Cook each sang four. The encore was Cook's Billie Jean, followed by a group sing. Surprisingly, Jason Castro did not sing Hallelujah and Archuleta did not sing Imagine. Kristy Lee Cook is stunning, but not crowd pleasing. Syesha is both. She bored me with Umbrella, but was wonderful on Beyonce's Listen. I have never been a Brooke White fan and she was my least favorite tonight. She sang Let It Be. some snap song, and something called Yellow. Michael Johns and Carly Smithson were excellent.

The spokesman is Doug Wright, who is not related to the artist. Richard Wright met Pink Floyd members Roger Waters and Nick Mason at college and joined their early band Sigma 6. Sigma 6 eventually became Pink Floyd and Wright wrote and sang some of the band's key songs. He wrote "The Great Gig In The Sky" and "Us And Them" from Pink Floyd's 1973 "The Dark Side Of The Moon." He left the group in the early 1980s to form his own band but rejoined Pink Floyd for their 1987 album "A Momentary Lapse of Reason." LINK | |

It's been so nice so far. JMHO. Anyway, they've started airing the Amtrak Acela commercial again. I love the music in that commercial. The composer is Jon Wygens. He is based in London. Here's the link to his website. There are a few clips on the site. Here is the commercial on the tube. I love the music and the feel of the commercial. The music really fits. From my research, the song is only the length of the commercial. Some composers write shorts specifically for commercials and they are not a snip from a full length tune. Enjoy. | | http://sc.groups.msn.com/...y/img/mb/reply_bg.gif>Reply  | | Click the link below and select "Soaring". Then, imagine someone like James Earl Jones doing a voice over for your latest product launch or expansion. Heck, with that music, you could do your own voice over! I would have to rate those clips intellectual, mysterious, and captivating all at the same time. My kind of music. If you didn't read my previous post, this guy composed the Amtrak Acela commercial backround. Unfortunately, it's not on his playlist. Mark p.s.

I still play it occasionally. This instrument was built by Norman & Beard of London & Norwich in 1905 and installed into the main concert chamber of the Wellington Town Hall (in NZ) in early 1906. The organ is completely original (as built, including the pneumatic action and original blowers) and has never been altered or rebuilt in any way. It had a lot of money spent restoring it in the mid-1980s and then received another restoration a couple of years ago, so is in superb condition.    | |
