Earlier I was listening to Béla Bartók "String Quartet No. 5", on the record player.

You Tube being amazing, they have all of Bartók's String Quartet's uploaded.

The painting in the background of course, this is Wassily Kandinsky's "Composition VIII" from 1923, Kandinsky's early Bauhaus period....I love Kandinsky, one of my favourite artists.

This is the Allegro from "String Quartet No. 5":



Then I listened to Imarhan, who are Tuareg from Algeria and are on City Slang Records which is owned and run by some friends of our's in Berlin:

City Slang Records

Imarhan

The whole Imarhan album is completely astonishing.

This is Imarhan's song "Tahabort" which is amazing, incredibly intricate guitar work and in general just extraordinary noise, they're on tour throughout Europa this month and also March, we must go and watch them do their thing:



Edited to add comment.

Lightnin' Hopkins "I Woke Up This Morning" from his album "Down Home Blues" released in 1964 on Bluesville Records.

Gillian Welch - I'll Fly Away.....



When the shadows of this life have gone
I'll fly away
Like a bird from these prison walls I'll fly
I'll fly away

Black Lilies - Catherine



Sergeant Foster, tell me now straight
Four thousand pounds of fire and we’re in overweight
You say you don’t believe we’ll ever get her off the ground
Don’t worry, sergeant she ain’t never let me down
No she ain’t never let me down


Up here with the birds and the angels and the bombs
Eighty-nine missions and I ain’t twenty-one
Thinking of my mother and the girl I left behind
Come on silver darling, we were born to fly
Yeah we were born to fly

And my Catherine, carry me on your wings
To Lake Michigan and childhood dreams
Where the Red Arrow Highway cuts right through our town
Nothing but blue skies and fire on the ground
Nothing but blue skies and fire on the ground


Remember them German boys from Chicago town
Marching down main street and nobody made a sound
I wasn’t but a child then, and I ain’t much older now
Looking back through the smoke and flames, they never saw it coming down
No they never saw it coming down


And my Catherine, carry me on your wings
To Lake Michigan and childhood dreams
Where the Red Arrow Highway cuts right through our town
Nothing but blue skies and fire on the ground
Nothing but blue skies and fire on the ground


Traveled across the ocean, been all around this land
Pontedera, Italy … got drunk in Paris, France
Crossed that old Rhine River, can’t be much longer now
Have you heard the news today? We’re all heroes now!
Yeah we’re all heroes now


And my Catherine, carry me on your wings
To Lake Michigan and childhood dreams
Where the Red Arrow Highway cuts right through our town
Nothing but blue skies and fire on the ground
Nothing but blue skies and fire on the ground

Somebody writing in an entertainment rag actually referred to Bonnie Raitt as the greatest redheaded slide guitar player.
I set her straight right quick.

I can't really hear it but I KNOW it's all lies. My dumber half is watching "the nooz".
She's TV educated like most idiots.

On 9-11 Matt Redman realized there really were no good worship songs for such times. So him and has wife sat down and wrote what became an epic song.
