Ringo Starr: Liverpool 8 Video

Not bad this young lad, uh?
By the way, I listened to this song for the first time only a couple of hours ago and it's been going around my head ever since, so I can assume it means that it works for me. Still don't know about the rest of the new -same title- album.

The Beatles: White album (one-disc only)

This is a bit of a game I played: I asked myself "What if the Beatles had made one disc out of all the music they put on tapes for the so-called "White album" instead oa double LP? (I think George Martin would have appreciated a more concise work)
And I know this could seem a bit pretentious and all, but I tried nonetheless to compile a one-disc version that might sound fine (and, at the same time, I tried not to leave all the McCartney songs out...which is a bit of a hard work. I have always thought this was one of his worst period as a writer. He did much better sooner -"Pepper"- and after -"Let it be").
This is the result. Don't take it too seriously (otherwise you would probably want to chop my head for putting also an Anthology-version track in it...), it was just fun (at least it was for me compiling it).
I won't tell you the tracklist (it would take half the fun out).

Beatles, Miles Davis, Sonic Youth, e Donovan.

Dunque,
qui potrete trovare praticamente la discografia completa dei Beatles (anche se purtroppo a solo 128 k...)

Mentre questo invece è un index con molta roba jazz (e non solo), tra cui pure la colonna sonora di Ascensore per l'inferno di Miles Davis. Unica pecca:è lentissimo.

In quest'altro link tra le varie cose c'è l'intero Sonic Nurse dei Sonic Youth...

...e poi, last but not least, una bellissima raccolta di Donovan, con alcuni dei miei brani preferiti in assoluto degli anni '60 (ovvero "Sunshine superman", e "Season of the witch".
