Crosby, Stills ,Nash & Young - Almost Cut My Hair

                                                               Kansas City 26 Januari 2001

"Almost Cut My Hair" is a song by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, originally released on the band's 1970 album Déjà Vu.[1] It was recorded at Wally Heider Studios on January 9, 1970
 

The song describes a real-life dilemma faced by many hippies: whether to cut one's hair to a more practical length, or leave it long as a symbol of rebellion. It was written by David Crosby, and features solo vocals by Crosby, with the rest of the band joining in on instruments rather than on vocal harmony, as in many of their other songs. Unlike most of the tracks on Déja Vu, the quartet and their studio musicians, Dallas Taylor (drums) and Greg Reeves (bass), all recorded it at the same place and time.] It was one of only two songs from the album that Neil Young joined in on, despite not writing

It became one of Crosby's signature songs, and "probably his most important political song". Crosby himself stated "It was the most juvenile set of lyrics I've ever written ... but it has a certain emotional impact, there's no question about that."

Jimi Hendrix - Valleys Of Neptune

Valleys of Neptune is a posthumous compilation albumby the American rock musician Jimi Hendrix. Released in the United States on March 9, 2010, the album was promoted as having "12 previously unreleased studio recordings", including the title track, "one of the most sought after of all of Hendrix's commercially unavailable recordings                                                                         

                                                      "Valleys of Neptune"(title track)

Hendrix began work on the musical composition for "Valleys of Neptune", under the title of "Gypsy Blood", in February 1969, with the first recordings taking place at Olympic Sound Studios in London on February 22 & 26, 1969 – three takes on guitar and piano and one take on guitar, respectively.[1] Hendrix wrote the lyrics for the song under the title of "Valleys of Neptune... Arising" on June 7, 1969, inspired by the writings of 'the sleeping prophet' Edgar Cayce regarding the rediscovery of mythical Isle of Atlantis, while staying at the Beverly Rodeo Hotel in Beverly Hills, California.[2] Bassist Noel Redding left the Jimi Hendrix Experience following a show on June 29, 1969, in Denver, Colorado, and afterwards "Valleys of Neptune" began to take more shape


This track was recorded in September, 1969, and May, 1970. This full-band version has never been released. An extract of a demo Hendrix made of this song -- featuring just Mitchell on drums and percussionist Juma Sultan

I had Bonny Light Horseman on my radar for a while, partly due to the many films on YouTube. When I heard about their one-off performance in the Netherlands, I seized the opportunity to really admire the band "live". It was a wonderful evening, and the concert exceeded all expectations.
    

 

                  Bonnie Light Horseman - Bonny Light Horseman  film by Hans Heus   Thans Hans!!

 Bonny Light Horseman consists of Anaïs Mitchell, Eric D. Johnson and Josh Kaufman,completed this evening with a wonderfully relaxed drummer and bassist.Great rhythm section!

                                Bonny Light Horseman -California film by Hans Heus   Thans Hans!!

          They call it American Folk, but have a sound all their own. Guitarist Josh Kaufman, is a special sometimes pretty freaking guitarist. Eric. D. Johnson, high voice, personality, and then of course Anais Mitchell , very intense singer / guitarist. And then the three voices that match beautifully with each other.

                             film by Arthur   

The audience is crazy, the band seems surprised about so much enthusiasm, two more encores and it's over, what an evening!! Will score high on the list of concerts 2023. The walk through the nice city Utrecht was a nice bonus.
