Today's youth are truly inspirational with their musical skills. Does Japan have the most and best girl and women drummers in the world?! I really love that they do 'covers' as well or better than the originals. Seems always the fast ones. Here's one I didn't think anyone could cover, but now I think the Muses could do it well.

Renaissance live performance 1977. That's about the time I saw them live. I loved Haslam's voice, Jon Camp's bass, John Tout on keyboards, Michael Dunford on acoustic guitar and Terence Sullivan on drums. The set ends with Prologue, which is the first tune that I heard, the first song on the album of the same name, and first song they played together as a band.

I always thought Linda did the high harmony on this but it's Denny Lane.

I do not know how Wagner's "Entry of the Gods into Valhalla" was missed. Making a promise in the beginning and keeping it at the end.

Beautiful. IMHO, Wagner's use of the many horns in all his compositions, to evoke such emotion and energy in listeners, is just unsurpassed.

Or this one. Prokofiev, Symphony No.1, Gavotte. Also in Romeo & Juliet ballet.

Way too shredacious for me. Here's some shredding I like. To me the late Shawn Lane remains the King of Shred.
