Forty Fingers – Bohemian Rhapsody
An evening pause: This is really badly filmed, with the camera constantly moving in a very distracting way, never stopping to actually let you watch them play. Very annoying.
However, the music is still magnificent, and the guitar arrangement is brilliant. Turn it on and listen as you do something else. You’ll enjoy it more.

Melanie – Look What They’ve Done To My Song, Ma
An evening pause: Performed live, 1971. Nice song and performance, but I often wonder why the 60s generation so often seems so unhappy. We were the most blessed generation ever born on Earth, with more wealth and prosperity ever seen by anyone ever.

West Point Band and Glee Club – Mansions of the Lord
A evening pause: For Memorial Day. The words:
To fallen soldiers let us sing
Where no rockets fly nor bullets wing
Our broken brothers let us bring
To the Mansions of the Lord
No more bleeding, no more fight
No prayers pleading through the night
Just divine embrace, eternal light
To the Mansions of the Lord.
Where no mothers cry and no children weep
We will stand and guard though the angels sleep
Through the ages safely keep
The Mansions of the Lord.
Hat tip Tom Biggar.
