dylan 2000


to ramona/dublin (september 2000)

dylan 97

bob dylan, acting strangely as some kind of rock music's rabbi, crying like an old cantor ... man, how not to love the man?

absolutely sweet marie (lovely rocking song from from blonde on blonde)

strayhorn 1965

billy strayhorn plays piano with duke ellington's band on his own composition, take the a train (1965, rare)

billy strayhorn sings lush life ...


... plays piano too (1964) ... he's not a singer but he shows how it should be sung

" invraisemblable ou pas, crois-moi, c'est la vérité -et il n'y en a pas deux ..."
