Stan Ridgway – Camouflage
An evening pause: Though performed live, this version is edited and dubbed with the official recording from 1986. While the song is quite good, I can’t help thinking about yesterday’s pause.

Rick Beato – The Real Reason Why Music Is Getting Worse
An evening pause: His conclusions have implications far beyond music itself and on the entire worsening of our culture.
Hat tip Chris McLaughlin.
Jefferson Airplane – Crown Of Creation
An evening pause: Performed live 1968 on the Smothers Brothers television show. Nicely performed but it is still the typical self-righteous tripe from the baby boom generation.

Ferris Akel – Napping Raccoon
An evening pause: This is how many of us all feel at the end of a hard week. Music is the “Daydream” by the Lovin’ Spoonful.
Hat tip Ferris Akel, who filmed this on September 21, 2024.

Hat tip Tom Biggar.
Riccardo Cocchi &Yulia Zagoruychenko
Swingrowers – Midnight
An evening pause: A prelude to Halloween. The visuals come from vintage 1920s and 1930s early cartoons, though the bulk comes from Walt Disney’s 1929 cartoon, Skeleton Dance.

Richard Marx – Hazard
Hohnerklang – Silence and I
An evening pause: Hat tip Tom Biggar, who notes this is quite “an interesting blend of instruments. The orchestra prides itself on giving you the “harmonica at its best!”
Gina Lollobrigida – Pagan dance
An evening pause: I think this makes a great start to the weekend. Clips from the 1959 movie Solomon and Sheba, centered on Gina’s pagan dance as Sheba, and edited to a piece of music by Dead Can Dance, called Cantara, which the youtube website labels “genuinely pagan music.” If you want to see the original film, go here and go to about 90 minutes. In the original, God steps in to stop all this hanky-panky.

Bee Gees – Please Please Me
An evening pause: From television, 1963, when these guys were really young. Make sure you watch until the very very end.

Jimi Hendrix – The Wind Cries Mary
Eric Clapton – Cocaine
An evening pause: Performed live 2015. The directing however is very mediocre. During the very spectacular piano solo he or she seemed more interested cutting in a lot of random shots rather than showing what was really amazing, the piano player’s performance.
Still, a great performance. Hat tip Cotour.
Player – Baby Come Back
Minh Ngọc Ng – La Valse d’Amélie
Train – Drops Of Jupiter
The Rolling Stones – Midnight Rambler
OrtoPilot – Bittersweet Symphony
An evening pause: I wish he had used two cameras, just to give the visuals some variety, but the music overcomes the weak camerawork.
Hat tip Sayomara.
