Perhaps the best version of Faure's Requiem to ever exist - Netherlands Chamber Choir with Limberg Symphony Orchestra. CD version pictured below, but it's on YouTube, Spotify, etc.
Definitely recommend listening if you like 19th century choral music. Or even if you don't, it's just beautiful!

Another great one in my Folder - Norman Blake, "Whiskey Before Breakfast." An album I grew up with, actually. And yes, "Folder" is intentionally capitalized - that's what I call a local music library. If you have a bunch of music on a hard drive, you have a Folder.
Almost a Tom Petty song... kinda... Mike Campbell wrote the music, but Petty wasn't interested in it at the time. The Heartbreakers were recording Southern Accents and it didn't fit the feel of the album. Producer Jimmy Iovine told Campbell to send it to Don Henley. Henley, who also wrote the lyrics, loved it!

That's my piano teacher! Beyond amazing! No idea he did a record at the Vanguard.
This has won the whole day! Contest over! Thank you so much for sharing this today! Have not heard it in years. This one is right up there with "Pump It Up" for my Elvis Costello favorite.
Oh my gosh! This was definitely underrated. BTW...There's someone else we know in this video.
What a lineup. Johnny, Roy, Jerry Lee and Carl. And the hair ...
When you watch and listen to stuff like this, it's not just the nostalgia, but the good feeling it gives you deep down inside.😊
