When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people or changed who can see it, or it's been deleted.I adore John Martyn anyway but with the bonus of my All time favourite guitarist on it Paul Kossoff and ol'e Tetsu on Bass, and Simon Kirke on Drums, this is quite endearing.Recorded on 15th September 1971 but unreleased this is better than the re-Recorded version by John.Koss gently backs John up but never taking over and they really worked well together that is why Chris Blackwell put them together and he was right.They had a few Ding-Dongs and wound each other up but they had a brother relationship as you can clearly hear.Shame Koss did not play with fellow Island artist and John's close friend Nick Drake as Koss could play any style and not as other people say just a blues guitarist,and some of Nick's songs would have suited Koss fine.Never noticed before the songs lyrics sounds like he wrote it for Koss as he did for Solid Air for Nick..All 3 have gone now but will always be remembered this is a lovely song and Say's everything about both great stuff.Take it away Guy's.
"Paul Kossoff & John Martyn"--May You Never--Unreleased single version--15th September 1971 -Words and Music by John Martyn--Paul Kossoff -Lead Guitar-John Martyn-Vocals,Acoustic Guitar-Tetsu Yamauchi -Bass-Simon Kirke-Drums.
"Pink Floyd"--Astronomy Domine'...This is an Amazing version----Recorded live At the legendary Mothers Club in Birmingham on 27th April 1969.This version proves that Gilmour was as adept as Syd at experimental guitar noises.Indeed Gilmour has often noted that he taught his best friend a lot of the techniques that would become Barrett's trademark sound,in particular the use of slide and echo.It is arguable that ,though heavier and more structured,this version is more accomplished and spacey that Syd's version.Great vocal harmonies by Gilmour and Wright------Where's me spiff gone...LOL---People always spell it and pronounce incorrectly it has a acute on é. or sometimes known as accent aigu, Making it pronounced "Astronomy Dominay"--Av it with an upper case A...
"Pink Floyd" -"Careful with that Axe Eugene"------The band went into the studio at the Beginning of November 2nd which had been played at the start of the Spring 1968.This was the forth version but the first to be released.Originally known as "Keep Smiling People"The track came to be known as "The one chord wonder"by the band on the account of it's persistent and unchanging C drone bass around which the band weave their melodies.First performed live 31st May 1968,the track was written as part of the commissioned score for the film ,the Committee.It appeared next as" Murderistic woman" when it was recorded for the John Peel B.B.C.Top Gear 11th August 1968.Then the B side to "Point me to the Sky"as previously stated.Then a live version on the "Ummagumma Album from Mothers club in Birmingham U.K. on the 27th April 1969 and finally the "Zabriskie Point "Soundtrack where it was known as "Come in Number 51,Your time is up.Careful with that Axe, Eugene tells the story of two people in the forest cutting a tree. Nick Mason drum being the sound of the axe hitting the tree. While Eugene chops the other man sits on the other side, resting. The resting man calls to his friend "Careful with that axe, Eugene." The first scream is the resting man being hit with the axe. The second scream is Eugene, realizing he has just killed his friend.The band was at it's best when all 4 contributed as this song and Echoes shows as after Syd Barrett left none were really songwriters and with all 4 they bounce off each other later concluding with the Classic"Dark side of the Moon". The 2 best versions are the aforementioned Ummagumma version and this performance ..This Recorded live at the rescheduled date Brighton Dome on 29th June 1972.The earlier January appearance the equipment failed as they were doing the first Dark Side show(Bugger).
But they make up for it with a frighteningly intense performance.Waters blood curling scream he looks ready to kill someone,denoting the band's exit from the spacey middle section and into the heavy drum-led freak-out at the end,the song had become even more harrowing as they had been playing it for four years.And was now one of the highlights of the Floyd's set.Some would say their career!Turn it up lights down -try not to shit yourself(LOL). This is what Rock music is all about indeed the very essence dynamics that is the key...ProgtasticI've tried to mend
The love that ended
Long ago although we still pretend
Our love is surely coming to an end
Don't waste the time you've got to love again
We tried to lie
But you and I
Know better than to let each other lie
The thought of lying to you makes me cry
Counting up the time that's passed us by
I've sent this letter hoping it will reach your hand
And if it does I hope that you will understand
That I must leave in a while
And though I smile
You know the smile is only there to hide
What I'm really feeling deep inside
Just a face where I can hang my pride
Goodbye
Goodbye
We'll talk of places that we went
And times that we have spent
Together penniless and free
You'll see the day another way
And they could put the sunshine
for a night time where you lay
You're love began I don't know when
But if you do I know that
you'll be happy in the end"Kossoff Kirke Tetsu Rabbit"--Blue Grass --Great Rabbit song.Ol'e Tetsu's Bass is fabulous bobbing up and down nice high notes and a real Groove for all those who think he was no good.Rabbit's Texan voice Really suits the song wonderful Hammond playing.Simon grooves with Tetsu, and Koss has that fantastic weeping sound to enhance the whole thing.. Man ya can hear that ol'e House burning down Yes Sir..Great song Great Album..Richard Digby Smith's sound as an Engineer is great and gives the whole Album great depth....Wonderful --Av ittttttttttt.

When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people or changed who can see it, or it's been deleted."I Talk to the Wind(featuring Greg Lake) is the second track from the King Crimson's debut album, In the Court of the Crimson King.
Starting immediately after the cacophony that ends "21st Century Schizoid Man", the mood of this song is a stark contrast; it is serene, simple and peaceful. . Featuring Greg Lake's wonderful vocals in which he harmonies with himself ,his voice is a standout of the Album.One of the earliest examples of progressive rock, this song features a flute solo by Ian McDonald, who also played the two clarinets in the background and the piano.Beautiful song."Originally called Swan Song derives from a Jimmy Page demo from Zeppelin days "Terrific vocal by Paul Rodgers---The seeds of Swan Song were sown in early 1974 when Zeppelin reconvened to begin work on Physical Graffiti at Headley Grange, the 18th-century workhouse in Hampshire where they’d recorded their fourth album.By contrast, Page had grand plans for a lengthy new track he was calling Swan Song. The guitarist had already plotted out the instrumental piece at his home studio in Plumpton Place, East Sussex. Even at that early stage, his vision was clear. According to Page, it featured “a number of sections and orchestrated overdubs”.
The track was broken up into sections, two of which were recorded in late February 1974 (and which can be heard on various Zeppelin bootlegs and on YouTube). The first part opens with Page’s drifting acoustic guitar, before the John Paul Jones/John Bonham rhythm section kicks in with the sure-footed syncopation that characterised their greatest work. The second segment commences with Page again leading off, his descending riff hinting at the song’s majestic potential. Tantalisingly, he would later reveal that this epic-in-waiting would not necessarily have remained a purely instrumental track – there were plans to add other sections and even lyrics.But it was never finished until Crowley himself joined forces with Rodgers and Midnight Moonlight was born what a great song.Great Rodgers Vocal--"Crowley Magick"..This content isn't available at the moment
