American Tune by Paul Simon

On July 29, 2010, in It's all about music..., by Editor

Call me a purist, but I do enjoy the simple beauty of a gifted musician accompanied only by his favorite instrument. Give Elton John a piano, and let him play alone. Give Paul Simon his guitar, and experience his songs’ natural beauty (unless he sings Bridge Over Troubled Water, which he should never sing himself. Period. No discussion.).

As The Elders Of Our Time Choose To Remain Blind

On March 26, 2010, in It's all about music..., by Editor

My absolute favorite song by Donovan Leitch is Atlantis. The song starts very quiet with only a guitar and a piano in the background. It ends with a style closer to rock music with slight elements of psychedelia (at least that’s how I would describe it – I am not a music expert). The beginning of the song is nevertheless the strongest, most fascinating part of the song where Donovan, with his distinct Scottish accent, tells his version of the island of Atlantis. He literally tells the story, meaning he doesn’t sing at first.
