For those of you who haven't seen it . . .

At the risk of being single minded, this is a great rock music video: The Fatboy Slim remix of The Rolling Stones Sympathy For The Devil.

How about this for a jam? Victor Borge!

How about this for a jam? Victor Borge!

Good old Vic.

I am shocked he didn't know the tune, though.

And I didn't enjoy his playing on this one - too much inappropriate messing about.

But a great tune. I used to have a favourite version of it from the '50s by an old gentleman called Al Gallodoro. Well he was a little younger back then. He's 93 right now. And still playing. Anyway... when I first heard his version of "Czardas" (the tune just butchered by Borge), I thought he was playing a violin... and then, no! - a button accordion... but it was just the semi-classical purity of his articulation on alto saxcophone. And as a consequence of just watching Borge bugger about with it, I immediately found myself a replacement on-line of that old Al Gallodoro recording.

So thanks, Steve, for the impetus.

I'll copy some of it for you.

Posted these links already under the "Last CD You Bought" thread - but I figured this thread gets more traffic, so I'm posting them again.

Here's Zeca Pagodinho singing a medley of favourites from his first CD.

And here's the lovely Marisa Monte with Paulinho da Viola on the old Pixinguinha favourite Carinhoso

I love this stuff and hope others enjoy it too.

Rock The Casbah

No before this Hari.

Thanks.

How el diablo are you ?

Hey Lazz! I missed this one... I'm busy as el diablo!! but doing ok, being involved more and more in guitar making, which makes me very happy.

I guess rockers won't like this kind of stuff:

Los Panchos - Sin ti

[Steve]

Hey Hari. That was brilliant!

[hariossa]

Hey Hari. That was brilliant!

Hey Steve! I'm glad you liked it, it proves that you're a sensitive rocker

Some info about them at the Wikipedia:

You'll love this guy, plays acoustic guitar (made by luthier Lito Benito) using just one arm (for obvious reasons)

[thelevellers]

That's fully awesome

Thanks for the linky goodness

[Steve]

Very impressive stuff!
