John Coltrane -' My Favourite Things' Posted by: ullyses17
Video duration: 616 seconds Probably Coltrane's signature piece (Giant Steps notwithstanding). Basically, it shows all the elements that made him a genius. Not to mention one of *the* killer bands of all time. |

'Deliverance' - 'Dueling banjos' scene Posted by: ullyses17
Video duration: 251 seconds One of the more memorable scenes in the movie. Made a one-hit-wonder out of the cut. Also became the permanent soundtrack to anything related to backwoods Bubba culture (e.g., how can you not hear this in your head whenever you see the Springer Show, or go to Wal-Mart, or watch the infield at a NASCAR event...) ;-) |

Gillian Welch - "Time (The Revelator)" Posted by: ullyses17
Video duration: 383 seconds The honest face of country music. Spare. Plaintive. No blow-dried hair. No histrionics. Gillian Welch (and a few others) are the only things keeping the genre of country music from descending further into embarrasssment. |

Patti Smith - 'People Have the Power' Posted by: ullyses17
Video duration: 323 seconds Its hard to describe the import of Patti Smith on the fledgling punk scene. All the usual cliches of 'punk poet chanteuse' probably apply, but still don't quite capture it. I arrived on the CBGB's scene too late to see her in her prime (also missing out on the Ramones, Talking Heads, Blondie etc). Ah well - this video probably doesn't do real justice, but still pretty good. |

Johnny Cash - 'Nasty Dan' (with Oscar the Grouch) Posted by: ullyses17
Video duration: 134 seconds A classic bit of Cash (note he's not wearing any black) - all aspects of his persona emerge in this bit with Oscar on Sesame Street. Wait for the bemused sneer when Oscar interrupts him about half-way through. |

Rollins Band - "Tearing" Posted by: ullyses17
Video duration: 239 seconds Rollins Band ripping it up on the now-defunkt Dennis Miller Show. All the now-classic Rollins moves (the crab, the swinging situp, the upper-back fly). Check out Andrew doing his best Townsend impression on base. |

Rorke's drift - climatic battle scene Posted by: ullyses17
Video duration: 370 seconds A classic - Welsh regiment in Natal in SA, faced with overwhelming odds against a very large Zulu army (basic details at http://en.wikipedia. org/wiki/Rorke's_Dri ft). Of course, the Welsh had rifles, but... What I like about this clip is the call and response from both 'sides'. Classic massed voice stuff. Oh, and the debut film appearance of one (Sir) Michael Caine. |

Death of Joe Cole (Part II) Posted by: ullyses17
Video duration: 422 seconds Henry Rollins finishing the story. Scar tissue is stronger than regular tissue. |

Husker Du - "Don't Want to Know if You are Lonely" Posted by: ullyses17
Video duration: 216 seconds Found an old tape an A&R guy sent me some time ago - cleaned up the sound as much as I could. Not my favourite Huskers phase (too poppy - not enough 'Eight Miles High' for my tastes), but still - one of my favourite bands... |
