Music Videos - - The Greats!

Itzhak Perlman

Here's Pablo de Sarasate's Zigeunerweisen:

I saw Perlman play from the front row at Severance Hall in Cleveland, Ohio. Here's a musician that is so immersed when he's playing that it draws you right in.

Blasphemy perhaps.....but this is a better version

Wouldn't consider R.E.M. as belonging amongst the Greats (just yet), so I'm posting it here.

Haunting, almost beautiful in a sad way.

This thread is called the Greats. I've been trying to post some things you might not have heard before. What the heck . There is no harm in stating the obvious. I

invite you to post your favorite Elvis tune.

 

[Gregadd]

Post your favorite Stevie

Wonder

 

[Johnny Vinyl]

Was just thinking Stevie Wonder as I have "Musiquarium " spinning as I type this.

On the videos....let's merge the 2 threads....

Not blasphemy at all. Reminds me of Carole King bettering James Taylor originals.

The man gives the instrument a voice and emotion. And makes it approachable to even people who are not into classical music. Those must be the signs of music genius!

 

[Gregadd]

Sorry. I could not resisist.

 

[RBFC]

Sorry. I could not resist.

See post #88 in this thread. Agreed about this one.

Greg, I'm hitting below the belt again, this time with one of the queens. I couldn't decide which one to post, i.e., the beautiful or the utterly depressing, so here's both:

 

[amirm]

What are we talking? No Beatles? Or was it posted and I missed it?

 

[Gregadd]

See post #88 in this thread. Agreed about this one.

Sorry Lee. Not the last time that will happen on this thread.

 

[Gregadd]

Amir she needs a ticket to ride because she's a day tripper.

 

[Gregadd]

No problem Ron-I'll call your Roberta and raise you a Donny Hathaway.

 

[Ron Party]

I see your pair and raise you 5 blue notes:
