I wonder who they are
What are their names
The men who really run this land
And I wonder why they run it
With such a thoughtless hand
And on what streets do they live
I’d like to ride right over
This afternoon and give
Them a piece of my mind
About peace for mankind
Peace is not an awful lot to ask

The Kills playing The Velvet Underground & Nico’s ‘Pale Blue Eyes’. They did a really brilliant job, didn’t they?!

(A list, not a ranking.)
1. Iron & Wine: House By The Sea
This song moves your legs. This song makes everything better. Sound’s strange, but this is the effect it has to me.
It’s a filigree carpet of sounds that creates an unique atmosphere.
To say it in other words: I love it.

2. Creedence Clearwater Revival - Green River
The guitar riff is awesome and John Fogerty sings about girls, dancing barfoot in the moonlight besides a green river.
Any questions?

4. Animal Collective - Summertime Clothes
The unique experimental feel of Animal Collective makes me feel the warm winds of the summer on my skin.

5. Bob Marley & The Wailers - Natural Mystic
‘Natural Mytsic’ is originally ment as a religious song. For me it’s bow before the endless power and beauty of the nature.
See them performing the song in Dortmund.

To be continued…
The Art Ensemble Of Chicago playing ‘No Women, No Cry’ as made famous by Bob Marley & The Wailers. It’s a really cool version, for me better than the original. Going to write more about this ensemble the next days.
Bohren & der Club of Gore is a Ambient and Doom Jazz band, that was originaly founded as a Hardcore band. Must be great. Is great.

Always when I listen to Captain Beefheart & his Magic Band I ask myself, when the day will come I understand it.
But even if I don’t understand: I love it, ‘cause it’s genius.
Click on the cover to take a listen & hear what I mean.
Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young is so multifaceted.
