    Walking On The Air is made for skiing.   I took my MLT library skiing yesterday.  We got four inches of snow the night before, so conditions were perfect.  Walking On The Air  was on replay for a while.  It’s driving rhythm is perfect for carving through the powder.  Other highlights were Once Upon A Time and Nothing Is In Vain.  Actually all of When We’re Together was great.  Well, use extreme caution with Dreams.  It’s hypnotic groove  can affect your reaction time.

    Very kool.  I am always amazed when singers just burst into song in perfect harmony.   I love it when Lisa and Mona do it in the WOTT videos.  True talent.

    ‘This was kool.  It can be quite interesting to watch a band just sitting around talking about this and that.

    WOW!  This is truly amazing.  I love watching musicians like this.  The guitar is part of him.  I was imagining he was looking at a big monitor on the floor as it was scrolling the sheet music for this piece.

    I am starting to believe that the great ones were born with partitioned brains, so they could concentrate on all the different parts of a piece  like this.  How does he remember everything?  Practice, practice,practice.  His roommate probably wears a t-shirt that says,”stop playing the same song over and over and over”

    He seems very humble when he bows at the end.  I like it when Mona and Lisa bow after performing.  It’s an old tradition that still shows class.
    ‘Thanks for sharing these.

    Hi Jung,

    We were lucky enough to see Gilmour at Radio City on that tour. Crosby and Nash were there to sing backup.  I love how they just stand still and watch Gilmour when he is playing his solos.  I think this one might be from Royal Albert Hall?

    Did you know that when Floyd originally recorded this song, the opening hum was done by rubbing wine glasses?   Here is a peek of how they did it.

    Now go put the original album on and listen close.  Does it sound a little different now that you know it’s not a synthesizer?

    Shine on

    “What” is the first thing Lisa said after Mona tried out the trombone

    ”What?”

    Thanks for playing  along. ????

    How can we leave out Pink Floyd’s “Dogs” off their 1977 album Animals? It’s a long one.  Here it is with lyrics.  https://youtu.be/qiaF4kuxJco

    Earbuds in – volume 11

    If you have a dog, no earbuds.  Play it through your speakers and tell your dog to sit.  Wait for it…trust me

    Awesome Jacki!  I think yours was “Walking Through The Air” for a few orbits?  Aren’t they great?   When mine arrived last week, my wife sent me a picture of the package.  I think I was driving her nuts with my texts each day,”Did you check the mail today? or the humble,”So, did I get any mail today?”  I think she thought it would drive me crazy to know it had arrived

    My calendars all run Sunday – Saturday.  This one is Monday – Sunday.  How are they in the Great North?  Is this a standard calendar thing, or is this a common pattern for calendars?

    Amazing.  Thanks for sharing this, Jung.  I like when she said,”Music is God.”

    Quite a few years ago, we saw the Tony Levin Band in a small club.  Tony is a master with the Stick.  He is probably best known for his work with Peter Gabriel.

    He is truly amazing to watch.  I remember they did a couple of King Crimson songs, one of Tony’s previous bands.  Is anyone familiar with Elephant Talk?
    It’s a kool song from the progressive rock era.  It’s not for everyone, but I think it is fun to watch and try to keep up with what they are doing.

    Here is a great video from 1981 when they appeared on a late night TV show.  https://youtu.be/p5Eoek8a500
