And all this time I thought it was a rock version of this:

But that was a bluegrass version of this!
 
A live version of the mv I posted on page 1:
That was the last of 24 songs in a row she performed at the concert; not bad, for such a tiny thing.*

She just won several awards at the Seoul Music Awards, including a Daesang (Grand Prize) and Bonsang (Main Prize), so congratulations! Original Sound Track Award for "All About You" from Hotel del Luna:

Just sayin'. :)

This morning I was in a very music-listening mood for some reason. I really don't like the Beatles at all but I really like their individual bands/music. Weird maybe I guess but they just never did anything for me lol.

 
... I really don't like the Beatles at all ...
PHILISTINE!!! :mad::mad::mad: (I'm channeling Douglas Adams of "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" here a bit.)
I do know a bit of what the individual band members did since the break-up. George Harrison's triple Album "All Things Must Pas" from 1970 and "The Concert for Bangladesh" triple album from 1971/72. Then Ringo Starr's 1973 "Ringo" and the 1976 "Ringo's Rotogravure". And John Lennon's 1975 "Rock 'n' Roll". Surprising myself, I also own Paul McCartney's 1971 "Ram".
"Band on the run", imo, is not the best that Paul ever did - not by a long shot; too schmaltzy for this hard rocker. 😡

lol, well that's just the song that I happened to be listening to when I was on here that day :)
 
And now for a retro time travel back to Canned Heat playing at Woodstock.
I just love the 2 minute slide at the beginning of 'Boogie' ...

Another OST from Hotel del Luna:


If it's confusing, a hint: IU's character is a thousand years old.

And that's not just a firefly. 😁

Edit, April 2022: Nuts. That was one of my favorite fan-made videos from the series, taken down by YouTube "for copyright violations". Which I don't get, as many other, to my mind inferior, examples remain up. I should delete this, but I'll leave it here out of spite. Nyaaaah!

I didn't get a chance to listen yesterday but Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon turned 47 yesterday, so I listened to that masterpiece this morning on my commute 😍
 
Since some of you guys are big on the music of half a century ago -- and there's been a nod to them above -- I post more of a band that loomed large in me yout'. A contemporary reviewer called their sound "poppy fields expanding to infinity", which seems fair enough, for their early material:


There was always a sense of expanding space of some kind creeping in, if not of "poppy fields". Sometimes it spoke of existential crisis, at least for this young Werther:

And this one got a lot of late-night play;

For what it's worth … I managed to get my greedy little fingers, ages ago, on a double vinyl LP entitled "Hooker 'n Heat", Hooker being the near-legendary John Lee … 🎸🎸🎸

Winwood … Traffic … Virginian, why is it (almost) always you that sends me to YouTube???
And now I am getting (not for the first time) seriously annoyed with that bunch!
Pete York, drummer for the Spencer Davis Group in the 1960s which included some guy name Steve Winwood.
I saw and heard him live in some music "cellar" in Nürnberg (Nuremberg) just before I met my wife.
Being there due to a buddy who "moonlighted" as a disc jockey while officially studying "something" at the University of Bamberg.
Pete York was the headliner, and on the inner sleeve of that vinyl LP I have the autographs not just of York, but also of the other three members of his then band.
I am just going nutty in trying to find THE (imo) best song on that vinyl LP, titled "Into The Furnace", second song on side 2, "Blue Mountain Roll", apparently written by the wind-instrument and the keyboard member of the band. Not for the first time I have found that the much-vaunted YouTube has serious deficits / blind spots *snort* ...

My imagination sometimes (often?) resembles a pinball in the same-named machine. Your post landed me with Gloria Estefan and Miami Sound Machine. Listened to a couple of versions, and I'm going to perpetrate this one on you (the most amusing one as far as the video is concerned), and the music really does rhythm, in contrast to the monotonous disco drone and the nerve-and-ear-wracking techno jackhammer.

Anyway:
