Clara Cernat & Thierry Huillet – Monti Csardas

The Highwaymen – Loving Her Was Easier
Heart – Crazy On You
Joe Bonamassa – Boogie Woogie Woman
The Allman Brothers – One Way Out
An evening pause: Performed live at the Fillmore East in NYC in 1971. Fuzzy and rough, but also a bit of rock ‘n roll history.

Poulenc – Trio for piano, oboe and bassoon
An evening pause: The players are Henri Sigfridsson, Rachel Bullen and Etienne Boudreault. The music is late 20th century classical. Though this can sometimes be grating, this piece is quite comparable in sound and melody to a lot of great 20th century art rock. And the instruments are unusual, the playing is grand, and it definitely gives us some variety.

Andy Kim – Rock Me Gently
An evening pause: Performed live in 2019, when he was inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame.

Taylor Davis – Nostalgia
The Beths – Expert In A Dying Field
An evening pause: Nicely done, in this age of no memory and a forgotten past.
How does it feel
To be an expert in a dying field
How do you know
It’s over when you can’t let go
You can’t stop
Can’t rewind
Love is learned over time
‘Til you’re an expert in a dying field

An evening pause: Unfortunately, there is no translation on the youtube webpage to identify the music.

An evening pause: Performed live in 1987 on Martha’s Vineyard.
Hat tip Alton Blevins, who sent it as a memorial for the passing of Simon’s two sisters last week.
Bob Fosse – Cuarto de la Banda
An evening pause: A very different dance number from the 1969 film Sweet Charity, the first that Bob Fosse directed.

The Revenge: Timo Boll vs. KUKA Robot
An evening pause: It is a commercial for KUKA robotics, and it is a bit staged, a competition between a KUKA robot and table tennis professional Timo Bollo playing music on glasses. Nonetheless, the punchline is good. Human creativity can always beat out robotic programming.

Speakeasies Swing Band – Black Swamp Village
An evening pause: Another piece with Catarina Sisinni the lead singer. Seems perfect for Halloween.

Annie Marie Lewis & Danny B. Harvey – House of the Risin’ Sun
Jerry Reed – Lord Mr Ford
Madison Cunningham – All At Once
Virtual Railfan – 55 Trains in 5 Minutes!
An evening pause: As Steve Goodman sang:
And the sons of pullman porters
And the sons of engineers
Ride their fathers’ magic carpets made of steel
And mothers with their babes asleep
Are rockin’ to the gentle beat
And the rhythm of the rails is all they feel.

Hat tip Tom Wilson.
Anne-Sophie Mutter – Bach’s Gigue from Violin Partita No.2 in D minor
Barrington Pheloung – Morse’s Oxford
An evening pause: A tour of Oxford, set to the music used in the first two Morse television series, Inspector Morse and Inspector Lewis, both of which were set in Oxford. As for the music, I wonder if my readers know the trick/pun Pheloung used as a basis for the theme’s main melodic line.

Justin Johnson – Voices from the Attic
An evening pause: The guitar was built by Charles Atchison, who apparently is also a magician.
