A set of oldies and some not so oldies...

Insensatez - Mina _ ( Live 1965 )
A very playful , different interpretation .The vocal style of this Italian grand diva may not be everyone's cup of tea, just wait still she scats at around the 2 min 10 mark. That's the sweet part , plus the way Mina shakes, or course.




Autumn Leaves - Tom Jones



Blue Velvet - Bobby Vinton

Since I Don't Have You - The Skyliners
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qzyEd2soQkk&feature=related


Don't Talk - The Beach Boys
I don't even know if this charted much back in the 60s but it's a damn fine mellow number from them.

In Dreams - Roy Orbison
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VPWYLwXtjGk&feature=related


Sleep Walk - Joe Satriani
Absolutely a shweeet cover , not his typical Satriani style.

Brigas, Nunca Mais - João Gilberto
Needs no intro ...

Resphoina - Joe Hisaishi



風の谷のナウシカ - Joe Hisaishi

Sound quality is so so but the music and performance are beautiful. Couldn't locate the original. Enjoy.

My Funny Valentine - Chris Botti & Sting
A 7 min long live performance and almost equal airtime for both. Very 'interesting' performance from Sting ... ha



The look of love - Chris Botti
Moving on to a more urban groove oriented feel, with Chantal Kreviazuk on vocal.
I never liked her vox until I heard this one recently.



Seafall - Yoshihiro Hanna feat. Mick Karn
An even more urban clubbish chill track, with Japan ( the UK band , not the country. Disbanded almost 20 years ago ) bass player Mick Karn. For other Japan/Sylvian/Mick Karn/RTC fans, Karn is very ill at present. You'll find more info on his website. God bless , Mick.
