So many different kinds of music! Like that Supertramp rain song with a happy ending.

Don't think it's raining in Dallas, Texas, tonight, but lots of football fans are sure crying. :smile:
Texas Flood. Stevie Ray Vaughan, RIP, gone so young.

Prince and Stevie Ray Vaughan. Wow, couple high E leads. With rain songs!

Best concert I ever saw was Youngbloods, Santana, and Grateful Dead in '69 in a UCSB college gymnasium. Acoustics not the greatest but intimate setting. Youngbloods played first, then Santana played their 1st album, and last the Dead played their entire Live/Dead album. Santana's high E sound was just electric, the most memorable that evening. Here's Youngbloods' "Rain Song."

and Winter.


Summer:
Allegro non molto
Under a hard season, fired up by the sun
Languishes man, languishes the flock and burns the pine
We hear the cuckoo's voice;
then sweet songs of the turtledove and finch are heard.
Soft breezes stir the air, but threatening
the North Wind sweeps them suddenly aside.
The shepherd trembles,
fearing violent storms and his fate.

Adagio e piano – Presto e forte
The fear of lightning and fierce thunder
Robs his tired limbs of rest
As gnats and flies buzz furiously around.

Presto
Alas, his fears were justified
The Heavens thunder and roar and with hail
Cut the head off the wheat and damages the grain.

Winter:
Allegro non molto
To tremble from cold in the icy snow,
In the harsh breath of a horrid wind;
To run, stamping one's feet every moment,
Our teeth chattering in the extreme cold

Largo
Before the fire to pass peaceful,
Contented days while the rain outside pours down.

Allegro
We tread the icy path slowly and cautiously,
for fear of tripping and falling.
Then turn abruptly, slip, crash on the ground and,
rising, hasten on across the ice lest it cracks up.
We feel the chill north winds course through the home
despite the locked and bolted doors...
this is winter, which nonetheless
brings its own delights.

Since I know all the members of this forum like the Grateful Dead's music so very, very much. :smile: Sure.
Dead marathon all day and night today. KPFA.org. Or at 94.1FM on your radio dial if you live near Berkeley.

THIS is why I love YouTube. Beatles =blocked and 101 other bands, how about a cover with only a few subscribers? She does a great job and even wears the cool 60s glasses.
I forgot to say that I've listened to this song quite a few times because I liked it (I really liked her vocals in particular), and it has often given me the earworm syndrome.

I'm not joking, the first time I heard it I had the song stuck in my head the entire day :biggrin:.

Well, nothing to complain about, it's a great song, so it wasn't painful :smile:.
