Trying to make ends meet
You're a slave to money then you die
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
You know the one that takes you to the places
where all the veins meet yeah
No change, I can't change
I can't change, I can't change
But I'm here in my mind
I am here in my mind
But I'm a million different people
from one day to the next
I can't change my mind

No se puede tener un azul sin amarillo o maranjo.
Si tu pones azul tambien hay que poner naranjo o amarillo".

Tribute to JOE ZAWINUL 1932-2007
Zawinul,Trilok Gurtu-Orient Express Part I
A Remark You Made
Josef Erich Zawinul (July 7, 1932 – September 11, 2007) was a jazz keyboardist and composer. First coming to prominence with saxophonist Cannonball Adderley, Zawinul went on to play with trumpeter Miles Davis, and to become one of the earliest musicians to play jazz fusion, which blended jazz with rock and roll. Later, Zawinul co-founded the groups Weather Report and the world fusion music oriented Zawinul Syndicate. Additionally, he made pioneering use of electric piano and synthesizers. Zawinul won the "Best Keyboardist" award 30 times from American jazz magazine Down Beat's critics' poll. Several artists have honored Zawinul with songs, notably Brian Eno's instrumental "Zawinul/Lava", John McLaughlin's instrumental "Jozy", Warren Cuccurullo's "Hey Zawinul" and Biréli Lagrène's instrumental "Josef".

Louis de Funès becoming Hitler
Louis Germain David de Funès de Galarza (fyˈnɛs) (July 31, 1914 – January 27, 1983) was a French actor who is considered by many to be one of the giants of French comedy. His acting style is remembered for its high energy performance, a wide range of facial expressions and an engaging, snappy impatience.
He was enormously successful in several countries for many years — France, also Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Spain, Germany, Belgium, former Yugoslavia, The Netherlands, Italy, Greece, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Bulgaria, Lebanon, Israel, Turkey, Albania and the Soviet Union — but remained almost unknown in the English-speaking world. He was only noted in the United States in 1974 with the release of The Mad Adventures of Rabbi Jacob. In a 1968 poll, he was voted France's favorite actor. [2] Many of his most successful films such as those in the Gendarme of Saint-Tropez series were pure slapstick, and although de Funès could play serious roles with a good deal of subtlety he was particularly known for his grimacing and outrageous facial contortions as he expressed anger, contempt, and astonishment. In a personal statement he claimed only to be interested in films that would draw an audience of 500,000 at least.

70's Nostalgia II
A mixed up jumbled phasy life
A crazy life for people who want to smile
I just don't understand
Why so hard to say hello before goodbye
It's a coocoo life a lulu life
A moody magic voodoo life
A coocoo life for people who want to love
I just don't understand why so green
That it's been hang ups day to day
I gotta pack up get away
Cause it's a crazy life
Yes it's a crazy life
Crazy life
It's a stupid life elusive life
A lonely stuck secluded life
A stupid life for people who want to fly too high
I just don't understand why so blue
What to do
I'm gonna kiss my sky goodbye
I'm gonna jump way down and die
Cause it's a crazy life
Yes it's a crazy life
Crazy life

Tres Recomendaciones Musicales:
- Si los The Raconteurs fue un “capricho retro de amigotes” como diría una revista muy apreciada por nosotros, ahora si podremos hablar de un dinero bien gastado. El único inconveniente que tenemos, es que este CD no esta en venta hasta mediados de Junio. Si alguna vez fue posible reunir a Led Zeppelin con el particular sonido de Alice Coltrane en un mismo lugar, aquí los tienen!. Los “hermanitos” White, nuevamente nos sorprende con su música.
- Para saber donde estábamos en los anos 70(no solamente musicalmente), puedo decir que estábamos en una sala de clases de una pequeña ciudad y en un lejano país. No podría decir que estábamos poniedo atención al profesor... Estábamos en el ultimo banco de la sala comentando sobre "Tarkus" el segundo LP de Emerson Lake & Palmer. Cuantas nuevas ediciones hay? Ni idea, solo sé que estos “cats” y sus productores ya están gordos con tantas re-ediciones. “ Tarkus”, continua siendo una gran muestra de virtuosismo y de cómo se empujaban las barreras de Rock en esos años.
- Por ultimo y para refrescar el verano norteño y entibiar esos fríos corazones sureños, tenemos a la bella Bebel Gilberto en su “Momento”. Aquí los dejo entonces con estas tres nuevas recomendaciones, disfruten!
A.
PS: Los fanáticos me dicen que prepare mis maletas...
ya me tienen una entradas para el concierto de "Héroes del Silenció" en la ciudad de Los Angeles -California.
La fecha esta confirmada para el 28 de Septiembre.

Li Bo - Drinking Alone with the Moon
Amongst the flowers Iam alone with my pot of wine
drinking by myself; then lifting
my cup I asked the moon
to drink with me, its reflection
and mine in the wine cup, just
the three of us; then I sigh
for the moon cannot drink,
and my shadow goes emptily along
with me never saying a word;
with no other friends here, I can
but use these two for company;
in the time of happiness, I
too must be happy with all
around me; I sit and sing
and it is as if the moon
accompanies me; then if I
dance, it is my shadow that
dances along with me; while
still not drunk, I am glad
to make the moon and my shadow
into friends, but then when
I have drunk too much, we
all part; yet these are
friends I can always count on
these who have no emotion
whatsoever; I hope that one day
we three will meet again,
deep in the Milky Way.

To an Old Friend
All my life though some have changed
Some forever, not for better
Some have gone and some remain
All these places have their moments
With lovers and friends I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life I've loved them all
But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more
Though I remember I’ll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I’ll often stop and think about them
In my life I’ll love you more
"There are places I remember"

240,000 miles away
"It's hard to appreciate the Earth when you're down right upon it because it's so huge.It gives you in an instant, just at a position 240,000 miles away from it, (an idea of) how insignificant we are, how fragile we are, and how fortunate we are to have a body that will allow us to enjoy the sky and the trees and the water … It's something that many people take for granted when they're born and they grow up within the environment. But they don't realize what they have. And I didn't till I left it."

Ryuichi Sakamoto & David Sylvian - WORLD CITIZEN
It's such a small amount
She's un-American
I guess it doesn't count
Six thousand children's lives
Were simply thrown away
Lost without medicine
Inside of thirty days
In the New York harbour
Where the stock's withheld
It was the price we paid
For a safer world
World is suffering
World is suffering
World is suffering
World citizen
In Madhya Pradesh
Where they're building dams
They're displacing native people
From their homes and lands
So they hunger strike
Cos they believe they count
To lose a single life
Is such a small amount
In the name of progress
And democracy
The concepts represented in name only
His world is suffering
Her world is suffering
Their world is suffering
World citizen
World citizen
And the buildings fall
In a cloud of dust
And we ask ourselves
How could they hate us?
Well, when we live in ignorance and luxury
While our super powers practice
Puppet mastery
We raise the men
Who run the fascist states
And we sell them arms
So they maintain their place
We turn our backs
On the things they done
Their human rights record
And the guns they run
His world is suffering
Her world is suffering
Their world is suffering
World citizen
My world is suffering
Your world is suffering
Our world is suffering
World citizen
Who'll do away with flags?
Who'll do us proud?
Remove the money from their pockets
Scream dissent out loud?
Cos god ain't on our side
The shoe won't fit
And though they think the war is won
That's not the last of it
Disenfranchised people
Need their voices heard
And if no one stops to listen
Lose their faith in words
And violence rises
When all hope is lost
Who'll embrace the human spirit
And absorb the cost?
Not one life is taken
In my name
In my name
His world is suffering
Her world is suffering
Their world is suffering
World citizen
My world is suffering
Your world is suffering
Our world is suffering
World citizen
Song composed by Ryuichi Sakamoto; Lyrics by David Sylvian

Un Hombre Sin País - II
Ahora durante nuestra idiota y catastrófica guerra de Vietnam, la música se ponía mejor y mejor. A propósito, perdimos la Guerra. El orden no se pudo restaurar en Indochina hasta que nos echaron. Esa Guerra solo hizo de millonarios, billonarios y esto mismo ocurre hoy en día. Esta haciendo de billonarios, trillonarios. Esto yo llamo progreso!.
Por que sera que los países que invadimos no pueden pelear como damas y caballeros, en uniformes, con tanques y helicópteros...?.
Volvamos a la música. La música hace que cada uno de nosotros apreciemos mejor la vida. Incluso las bandas militares, pese a que soy un pacifista, siempre me alegraron.
Me gusta Strauss y Mozart y todo eso, pero el regalo que los esclavos Africanos-Americanos le dieron al mundo, ese si que es grande. Es casi la única razón que en otras partes aun nos tienen algo de afecto. El remedio especifico para la epidemia de la depresión en todo el mundo son los blues. Toda la música pop hoy en día-jazz, swing, be-bop, Elvis Presley, the Beatles, the Stones, rock-and roll, hip-hop, etc-es derivada de los blues. Un regalo al mundo?. Uno de las mejores bandas de blues que he visto y escuchado en mi vida eran tres tipos y una chica de Finlandia en un club en Cracovia-Polonia.
Los extranjeros nos aman por nuestro jazz, tampoco nos odian por nuestra pretendida libertad y justicia para todos, ellos nos odian por nuetra arrogancia”.
“A man without a country”- Kurt Vonnegut.
