And I'm not sure why the YouTube videos aren't resolving to playable images (at least on my screen).

You only put the YouTube unique code in the URL John, leave the rest of the address out.

Always been partial to this one, the great Horace Andy covering Ain't No Sunshine. He did a few versions, but this is my favourite.

Thanks, Steve. It used to work with the URL, and the instructions say it does (although I notice that the copied URL is in a slightly different format than it used to be).

Anyway, I've fixed it now and learned something.

An undeniable classic and personal favourite of mine is "Black Dog" by Led Zeppelin.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zcBjfBpgH8Q

A lesser known one but a personal favourite is "My Body Is A Cage" by Arcade Fire. A standout tune by a really good Canadian band.

Some good choices here. Some of which I thought of, some surprised me.

Here is an unusual song by Italian Singer/Guitarist Catarina Valente.

"The Breeze And I (Andalucía)" is based on Ernesto Lecuona's Suite Andalucía with English Words added by Al Stillman. I actually like the intro better than the song. And the reverb wash on the voice works for me.



It reminds me of some of the music I heard when I was in the southern part of Spain (Triana section of Seville). We went to a little bar 3 nights in a row, interacted with the band, and on the last night spoke to them through a translator, and when they found out we were musicians, it ended up with enthusiastic hugs.

Here's another nice vocal opening that many here might not have heard before (searching for non-commercial stuff)

Another recognizable one for some.
Live concert recording (except Sanborn on sax; his mic was dead so he had to re-record later .. and match his work that bled into the other mics)
from 'David Live' in '74 or so
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9SnYNAxgrjo

Bowie could do that.
End one song, go into an acapella thing, then have giggle for a second, yet start the next song right on pitch with the piano that doesn't play until after he starts singing.
He's pretty much left hanging out there; either those first couple notes are going to be right or that piano is gonna tell on ya!
