Knowing Imagination

More Evidence of the Shrinking World

This video brought tears to my eyes. Stand By Me, performed by Ben E. King and written by Ben E. King, Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller, is a great song to begin with, but this takes it to a new, universal level. I wonder what the story of the making of this is- who made it, how, and why. I wouldn't be surprised to see this one become very popular, at least for a time. 

Enjoy- and imagine!

                   

Together Again

Two titans of imaginative music have recorded together again after 30 years. David Byrne and Brian Eno have released a new album, "Everything That Happens Will Happen Today". At this time, the album is only available from their web site, Everythingthathappens.com, and is available in many formats. Generously, they have provided a way to embed the album on web sites so here it is! See if you like it- it's all here! What do you think about the music, the business model, etc.?
