Now Hear This…

I’ll admit it… this idea is cribbed, with appreciation, from Chez‘s Listening Post entries at Deus Ex Malcontent.  I’d been thinking about something like it for a little while, but it wasn’t until I heard the following song for the first time that I was moved to post it.  The video itself doesn’t move me; however, close your eyes and listen to the music, the melody, the voice.  Haunting, ephemeral, and transcendental all at once.

This is Niraj Chag‘s Khwaab, with vocals by Swati Natekar.  I haven’t been able to stop listening to it.

The first gig of the Eagles…

One of my favorite bands is the Eagles, and over at the Fastlane (probably the best Eagles fansite out there), there's a great article about the Eagles' first ever gig back in 1972… Amazingly, it was an unpaid gig where they played at the request of Jackson Browne (one of the most amazing singer-songwriters out there).
