It's been a while since I listened to Chicago.

 

[Kinnakeet]

From their 1969 album, "Elephant Mountain." Not all versions of this song, which a lot of people have done, contain the fiddle.

Kick ass tune!

African Country gospel music. Swahili, unless I'm wrong.

I don’t dislike it, I’m kind of filling in what I think he’s saying, but probably 100% wrong.

"Heroes" from the 1977 album of the same name. The titular song, I guess. I think I was still in the Navy at the time. It's funny how much of the music I listen to comes from the '60s and '70s - pre-Navy, and haze gray and underway. Of course I don't really remember the '80s, and the '90s mostly suck, so there's that.

I love this song and video!

Okay, I lied. One more. I ran across this group...I can't remember how long ago. Stumbled across them again tonight.

3:03-05 look at the arrangement of the pickle and cherry tomatoes....lol

I've never really developed a deep appreciation for Frank Sinatra, but at least I don't run screaming from the room when he comes up on a play list.

Noticed that Charlie Parker played on that Dizzy Gillespie tune. Immediately brought to mind Steely Dan.

This song is coming up on its 101st birthday.

"Rhapsody in Blue," the speed version.

 

[BOP]

Ravel's "Bolero." The focus is on the conductor, Alondra de la Parra. A Mexican and a woman. If I had to guess, either of those being an internationally known conductor is a rarity, let alone both.
