Hi Tim, Jeannette
Great photo, and one that makes you wonder. I believe we are all connected with one another and the universe. There are phenomena like Quantum Entanglement that defies our classical understanding of the universe:
Entanglement is a phenomenon where two or more particles become interconnected in such a way that the state of one particle is directly related to the state of another, regardless of the distance between them. Great physicists Einstein, Podolsky, and Rosen argued that if quantum mechanics were correct, it would imply “spooky action at a distance” because changes to one entangled particle’s state could instantaneously affect the state of another, even if they were light-years apart.
Researchers continue to explore the nature of entanglement and its broader implications for our understanding of space, time, and information.
With coincidence, I always remember this inspired insight from a great mind. “Coincidence is God’s way of remaining anonymous” – Albert Einstein.
Certainly the senselessness of John Lennon’s murder evoked a big question mark, and that passionate cry echoed across the decades for MLT who are greatly inspired by the genius of John Lennon and the Beatles to resonate passionately in their own album. John Lennon dared to question the events of his time, just as MLT questions the absurdity that goes on in our time. I don’t believe it is just a coincidence. MLT album WHY? is a remarkable masterpiece and perhaps MLT’s inspiration and creativity like all great work of art masterpieces in history tapped into something that is beyond our understanding.

H Roger and Jacki
We are so lucky to have discovered MLT. We are certainly spoiled with unmatched quality in music they produce.
On Christmas morning I awoke to the CBC and they were playing Christmas music by some of the big artists today. I heard Taylor Swift’s rendition of “The Little Drummer Boy”, and it was so bland. She incorporated a lot of modern Wah, wah voice effects and tricks modern pop songs are so assimilated with. There was just nothing moving to draw me back for another listen. She tried to put a lot of feeling into her vocals, but it was just musically lacking. They played a few more classic Christmas songs by some other very popular artists today that I can’t even remember the name of, and just as well.
The musical talent of today’s pop artists can’t even be compared to MLT. Today’s mainstream chart topping music can be summed up with a simple phrase, “mediocrity prevails!”.
Well I shouldn’t be so critical and negative during the holidays festive spirit. 😉

Thank you Jurgen for sharing all those beautiful Christmas traditional/folk music, castles and scenery. A beautiful collection of videos I enjoyed. You always bring so much beautiful content: music, cultures, places and things to the forum I never would have known about.
I’m not familiar with any of Leopold Mozart’s work, but that one you posted is quite good. Talent certainly ran in the family, with Wolfgang’s sister witnessed to be the greatest talent in the family actually. If times were different, and women were allowed to express and develop their brilliance in art equally like men, it might be Marianne Mozart’s work eclipsing Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, but the world of music is less because of the short sightedness and inequalities of humanity at the time.
John Lennon’s music and legacy certainly lives on, knowing no boundaries in nationality nor generation, so broad and wide. “Mull of Kintyre” is one of my favourites of Paul’s solo songs, the bagpipes are awesome in it and makes that song.

You both have a heart of gold.

There’s some great harmonica sounds in Neil Young’s beautiful gem.

I like some of Neil Young’s songs. Cinnamon Girl is great, I also like Old Man, among others.

I think in music it is good to be dimensional. I think I’ve had a spattering into many genres and appreciate most music I think. Hip Hop/Rap though is not something I can get my head around, nor do I want to.
There is a new movie about Bob Marley coming out in the new year I am looking forward to. I never thought I could like reggae, but Bob changed that. He really used his music to make the world better, in the same vein as John Lennon.

Hi David
Certainly the billions in funding NASA, is money well spent, and a great investment into humanities future. While it is great to see private investment into space programs like SPACEX, that can lead to even more innovation, I think there is always the tendency for it to get derailed or misused for greed, profit, and power by special interest groups. I think the US Government should always continue to fund NASA’s space programs for the purpose of science and science alone to further humanity’s horizon.

Tim, good point, Mona could do her harmonica too! Would love to hear their interpretation of this one with their harmonies that would add another dimension to the song.

That must have been fun playing poker with him and even greater when you got to beat him to hear his harmonica. Did you notice if he let you win intentionally, just so he could have an excuse to play for you?
-
Hi Tim
Yeah this would be my most favourite of Neil Young’s songs. Always used to stop and listen intently whenever I heard this song on the radio. Neil does have a very unique voice like Bob Dylan.
Oh yeah! 👍 I think Mona and Lisa could do some incredible magic with this one with their vocals.

Hey Daryl
Wow, some awesome songs you christened that guitar with. Guess Who “American Woman too!!! I wish I could have been there to hear it all! 😀 Let your music passion explode with your new rig! 👍

Tim
Your dad played harmonica! That must have been very special, and when you hear a good harmonica riff, does that remind you of your dad?
The train sound effect with the harmonica sounds pretty cool. Yeah, Mona does that sometimes too.

Tim
Great song, and wow that blues harp really howls. Some incredible playing. Thanks for posting this.

That black beauty looks magnificent, and you got it just in time for Christmas too, how special.
It sounds like the Amp is perfectly matched for the guitar and your place, perfection. Have you thought of what song to play on it for the first time, or have you taken it around the block already? Thanks for sharing the photo of it, so happy for you! 👍🙂
