A Beautiful Night.

Paul McCartney- A Beautiful Night-



I am officially crazy for this 1997 music video from Sir Paul McCartney. My father showed me this earlier today.
Be sure not to miss a few glances of the lovely Linda and Ringo, too!

A Piano; Flaming, Falling.

Jeff Desom , a German filmmaker, has collaborated with experimental pianist, Hauschka to create this short music video which showcases the lovely talent that Jeff posesses when it comes to his craft and the wonderful musical pieces created by Hauschuka.

Done using vintage postcards of NYC found in Paris flea markets and photographs provided by the Library of Congress:

Hauschka - Morgenrot from Jeff Desom on Vimeo.

Isn't it such a hypnotic, beautifully flowing work of art?

Bratislava Hot Serenaders

These are The Bratislava Hot Serenaders . As what one would consider a modern Jazz Band, they aim to recreate 20s and 30s popular music verbatim with no modern day rearrangements in the music and the same can be said for their vocalists.

You will find different video clips of these superb performers on their site (linked above) but, here are my two favorites, thus far:

Broken Record (A novelty song.):


and Livin' in the Sunlight, Lovin' in the Moonlight:


And now, a question(s).
What is your favorite decade for music and who are a few of your favorite artists from that decade?

Thanks for the heads up, Elizabeth !

EASTER EDITION!

Fred & Judy- A Couple of Swells:




It isn't generally known but, Judy had a delightful sense of humor and was good at getting laughs; whether it be through dialogue, as evidenced in the banter throughout Judy at Carnegie Hall or in little skits such as the little gem you've hopefully just taken the time to view. :)

She was not, as many individuals suspect, the endlessly tragic figure that she usually projected herself as. If I'm not mistaken, her daughter, Liza , once asked her mother directly why she did not divulge her comedic side more prominently to her adoring audience. She replied with something along the lines of, "I'm giving them what they want to see." (I'm paraphrasing but, that's the general idea.)

And so, I wish each and every one of you a Happy Easter!
