Best performance of the "Brazilian" by Genesis

"Brazilian" is the quintessence of 1980's music for me: massive, thick sound, electronic drums and keyboards, distinct and thrilling melody (!), long instrumental part. I just love it! And that performance is one of concerts of dreams. And best phase of Genesis, in my opinion.

Rory Gallagher "Philby"

Some thirty years ago I had one Rory Gallagher single, and I "slaughtered" it listening to it again and again. I don't remember what was on B side of that disc, but it isn't important, because on A was "Philby" from "Top Priority" album - absolutely fantastic piece of classic, beefy guitar playing. I'm sure it is worth recalling the sound of a real rock, not a tinkling for teens :)
Enjoy!

The Tide Is Turning by Roger Waters

It is hard to believe, but that song was recorded 25 years ago. Now, time was turned, and I fall in love with it again. Especially with the grand finale after 4:00.
I have nothing more to say, just listen (loud!) this great piece:

Amazing... 

Pictures of you - extended and live

"Pictures of you" in my opinion is the best song of The Cure, but only version with long guitar introduction. I can listen to it again and again, in infinite loop.

Listen in too, and then again... :)

Paradise Circus - better version :)

First time I was listening to Massive Attack album "Heligoland", I was disappointed. In comparison to previous albums it was average, mediocre "trip pop" sound, much worse than earlier Massive Attack records. Many months later I found something fresh and strong on YouTube: better (in my opinion) version of "Paradise Circus" track, which I do not even remember well from original MA performance. It was remixed by Canadian duo Zeds Dead, and has power and kick of old Massive Attack songs.

And this is an original version for comparison:

Which one is better? You decide for yourself, but in my opinion original should sounds just like Zeds Dead version :)

Brian Eno - This

I'll bet you didn't know that Brian Eno's full name is Brian Peter George St. John le Baptiste de la Salle Eno :)
"This", opening song from "Another Day on Earth" album (2005) is fantastic, but don't even try to listen to it unless you have headphones or empty room/car to turn up the volume (a lot!) :)



This chord
This water
This son
This daughter
This day
This time
This land
It's all mine

This Calling Bell
This Forge Bell
This Dark Bell
This The Knife Bell
This calling
This burden
This falling
The world's turning

This What I thought I knew
This What I thought was true
This I understood
This In the deep wood
This Ah there I stood a child so fair
This On a certain square
This Down the dirty stairs
This To see the table set
This With golden chairs
This Ah to follow, follow, follow, follow there

This race
And this world
This feeling
And this girl
This revolver
This fire
This I'll hold it up higher, higher, high
