Air -KEREKES - live vanaf het kasteel van Hollókő (Hongarije)

Enkele weken voor we dit kasteel - een pareltje op de UNESCO werelderfgoedlijst - bezochten,  werd deze opname gemaakt. Nu snap ik ook waarom er toen muziek in de lucht hing ...

"Kerekes" is een Hongaarse band (hun naam betekent : "wielen") die in 1995 werd opgericht te Eger.

Ze combineren Hongaarse volksmuziek met funk , jazz , rock en elektronische genre-elementen.  Hun instrumenten zijn deze van de csángó's ( een Hongaarse zwervende bevolkingsgroep) : de herdersfluit, de koboz en de altviool, die hun muziek de zo typische, eclectische sound geven. 

Ga beslist eens een kijkje nemen op hun Youtubekanaal, wanneer je van dit soort muziek houdt. Je ontdekt er vast nog veel meer ► https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsSizwIx1qcp5CwEp8r5suQ

Circus / Blind Eye / Echoes in the dark - Uriah Heep ft. Ian Anderson

[postlink]https://dagendauwsnotenbalk.blogspot.com/2015/06/circus-blind-eye-echoes-in-dark-uriah.html[/postlink]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rwpRZoCGJzAendofvid [starttext]

Zondag spelen we ons aperitiefconcert met het harmonie-orkest om de zomervakantie in te luiden.
Op dit blog doe ik dat met dit nummer.
1 instrument hebben beide gemeen : de dwarsfluit en die bespeel ik zondag zelf ook ;-)

Hopelijk geniet u net zo erg als ik van Ian Andersons' virtuositeit...


Circus

Walkin' around this concrete garden
Viewing all in vain
Thinking why a dream
Is driving everyone insane

Then something will come
And make you feel the master in control
Still you're picking up and screwing
Anyone who's got a soul

I've been here far too long to remember
Sights and sounds from this town of clowns
Makin' up, dressin' up walkin' around
Thinkin' that you're Greta Garbo

I'm sorry my dears but we only sat down
And laughed and laughed in sorrow
But it was you that opened the door
And it's that we thank you for

Walkin' around this concrete garden
Viewing all in vain
Thinking why a dream
Is driving everyone insane

Everyone insane
Everyone insane
Everyone's insane



Blind eye

Stranger than the sunrise
Darker than the night
Fiercer than a rainstorm
This is man's delight
This is man's delight

Weaker than a moment
And hot as any fire
Blinder than the blind eye
This is man's desire
This is man's desire

I ran to a place in the open sea
Where I pledged my life to the sun
It was good for a while
I could laugh, I could smile
But when I woke up one day
The sun had gone

I ran to a place in the open sea
Where I pledged my whole life to the sun
It was good for a while
I could laugh, I could smile
But when I woke up one day
The sun had gone, had gone
Had gone, had gone, had gone, had gone

So, what of my meaning?
What am I trying to say?
What of my caution?
Im a man anyway
Im a man anyway

Im a man anyway
Im a man anyway
Im

a man anyway


Echoes in the dark

I have heard the echoes in the dark
Dim and distant voices of the past
And I've seen so far into the night
And lingered in the land of no light

Far beyond the shrouded hours of dawn
Through the mist of daybreak I was born
But the day was clouded still by night
Leaving me in the land of no light

Though I'd love to say hello to you
You might have to wait awhile to say goodbye
For it must end as it began
And then start again

The day of darkness comes to every man
And lingers while he reaches out his hand
And he cannot know how it will end
Till he finds out if he has a friend
...A friend



Songwriters
Hensley, Ken

In 2007 werd hij door de Britse koningin geridderd.

Mag hij in vrede rusten ...

Bohemian Dances - The Dø

Bohemian Dances

I don't want nobody to tell me what I did wrong or right
I have grown impatient you keep lecturing me day and night
Now you have no other choice it's my turn to decide
This can all be done the same with just a little fight.

Look at the sunrise, Look at the moonlight
You're not in a hurry, it isn't the time.
I know what's best now, believe me the best is never around if you're trying too hard.
Look at yourself boy, Look at yourself boy, Look at yourself boy
Whatever the price
As long as we're dancing bohemian dances
I know the answers are no longer far.

Totally freak out all over the place now.
As long as we're dancing we can't be mistaken
As long as we're dancing bohemian dances
I know the answers will pop in your heart.
Oh please don't try to make it worth than this could ever become.
As long as we're dancing bohemian dances
I know the answers are no longer far.

I will doing my best boy, doing my best boy, doing my best boy,
Whatever the price
Doing my best boy, doing my best boy, doing my best boy
You might be surprise.
Doing my best boy, doing my best boy, doing my best boy,
Whatever the price

I don't want nobody to take me
For someone I am not
I'm just playing my own part
Don't blame me if i'm on the run.
Look at the sunrise, Look at the moonlight
You're not in a hurry, it isn't the time.
I know whats best now, believe me the best is never around if you're trying too hard.
Look at yourself boy, Look at yourself boy, Look at yourself boy
Whatever the price
As long as we're dancing bohemian dances
I know the answers are no longer far.

Look at yourself boy, Look at yourself boy, Look at yourself boy ...

Here's a song for lovers - The Dø  (by Dan Levy & Olivia B. Merilahti)

Here's a song for lovers
Who don't care if they don't sleep
If dragonflies with heavy hearts
Cut the air like darts

Here's a song for lovers
Who won't ever have to weep
Clear sighted eyes and uncried tears
All dried out in the sun

Ooh

You were far too young, dear
To get so close to the clouds
No one told you to stay away
For pleasures of that kind

You were far too small to step foot
Outside of your house
Now you saw how dragonflies
Sting their hearts with darts

Ooh

Here's a song for lovers
Who don't care if they bleed

Deze song werd in 1988 uitgebracht op single en was het derde nummer op de LP Seventh son of a seventh son. Het verhaal wordt aanvankelijk verteld door een ik-figuur maar na zijn dood, gaat het verder in de derde persoon. Steve Harris die de tekst schreef was naar eigen zeggen geïnspireerd door de dood van het medium Doris Stokes en de vraag of iemand die helderziend is ook in staat is om zijn eigen dood te kunnen voorspellen.

De gitaarsolo wordt gespeeld door Dave Murray.

The clairvoyant  (◄ click here to take a look at my interpretation)
Songwriters: HARRIS, STEPHEN PERCY

Feel the sweat break on my brow
Is it me or is it the shadows that are dancing on the walls
Is this a dream or is it now
Is this a vision or normality I see before my eyes

I wonder why I wonder how
That it seems the power's getting stronger every day
I feel a strength an inner fire
But I'm scared I won't be able to control it anymore

There's a time to live and a time to die
When it's time to meet the maker
There's a time to live but isn't it strange
That as soon as you're born you're dying

Just by looking through your eyes
He could see the future penetrating
Right in through your mind
See the truth and see your lies
But for all his power couldn't foresee his own demise

There's a time to live and a time to die
When it's time to meet the maker
There's a time to live but isn't it strange
That as soon as you're born you're dying...
... and reborn again?

Pinball wizard
Lyrics & music : Pete Townshend

Ever since I was a young boy,
I've played the silver ball.
From Soho down to Brighton
I must have played them all.
But I ain't seen nothing like him
In any amusement hall
That deaf dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pin ball!

He stands like a statue,
Becomes part of the machine.
Feeling all the bumpers
Always playing clean.
He plays by intuition,
The digit counters fall.
That deaf dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pin ball!

He's a pin ball wizard
There has got to be a twist.
A pin ball wizard,
S'got such a supple wrist.

How do you think he does it? I don't know!
What makes him so good?'

He ain't got no distractions
Can't hear those buzzers and bells,
Don't see lights a flashin'
Plays by sense of smell.
Always has a replay,
'N' never tilts at all
That deaf dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pin ball.

I thought I was
The Bally table king.
But I just handed
My pin ball crown to him.

Even on my favorite table
He can beat my best.
His disciples lead him in
And he just does the rest.
He's got crazy flipper fingers
Never seen him fall
That deaf dumb and blind kind
Sure plays a mean pin ball!!!

Pete Townshend droeg de dubbelelpee op aan zijn Indiase goeroe, Meher Baba.

Als toemaatje kan u hier nog een interview met hem lezen dat verscheen in een nummer van Rolling Stone magazine uit '68.

See me, feel me

Lyrics & music : Pete Townshend

Feel Me

Touch Me
Heal Me
See Me
Feel Me
Touch Me
Heal Me

Listening to you, I get the music
Gazing at you, I get the heat
Following you, I climb the mountain
I get excitement at your feet
Right behind you, I see the millions
On you, I see the glory
From you, I get opinion
From you, I get the story
Listening to you, I get the music
Gazing at you, I get the heat
Following you, I climb the mountain
I get excitement at your feet
Right behind you, I see the millions
On you, I see the glory
From you, I get opinion
From you, I get the story

Ik weet niet of u er ook last zal van hebben, maar ik loop ondertussen zo ongeveer al een week dit nummertje te neuriën en het lukt me maar niet om het uit mijn hoofd te zetten.
Houd me op de hoogte of het op u datzelfde effect heeft.

Walk me out in the morning dew - Long John Baldry

[postlink]https://dagendauwsnotenbalk.blogspot.com/2012/06/walk-me-out-in-morning-dew-long-john.html[/postlink]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TOVUoD4gd_kendofvid [starttext] Hoewel het clipje van deze versie van Robert Plant me enorm aansprak, koos ik voor dit nummer uiteindelijk toch voor de uitvoering van Long John Baldry,  omdat muziek voor zich ook best sterke beelden kan oproepen en  deze vertolker me veel dieper wist te raken met z'n interpretatie en prachtige rauwe stem.

Dit post-apocalyptische folk-rocknummer werd in 1962 geschreven door de Canadese zanger Bonnie Dobson en was naar eigen zeggen geïnspireerd op de film "On the beach".

"Morning Dew", also known as "Walk Me Out in the Morning Dew", is a post-apocalyptic folk-rock song written by the Canadian singer Bonnie Dobson in 1962.
According to Dobson in a 1993 interview, "Morning Dew" was inspired by the film On the Beach.
