Jack White, formerly of The White Stripes, has just completed a three year project of remastering and re-releasing 1,600 old blues songs from the Paramount record company from the early 1900's. Paramount closed sometime in the early 30's, so it's the old blues stuff. The set includes restorations of the old magazine and newspapers ads from the early 1900's. It includes the music of blues legends like Charlie Patton and Blind Lemon Jefferson, as well as numerous obscure artists. I think it's fantastic that White has essentially helped to save this great music. I'm a huge fan of the pre-war blues. I have the complete recording of numerous of the artists included, but I can't wait to get this set to hear the more obscure songs that may have been almost lost to history.

I'm a huge fan of Jack White. Who's done more or even close to equal what he did, with just him, his guitar, and an anemic drummer? :)

Just the old blues players who used just them an a guitar. Robert Johnson, Charlie Patton, Son House, Tommy Johnson, Blind Blake, Lemon Jefferson, John Lee Hooker, etc. No one since then.

I'm a huge Jack White fan too. I play plenty of White Stripes on my guitar. Really, Jack White is in a league of his own in his generation. The only guys that can really match up with him artistically were making records before 1980 or so.

Blessings for the journey.........

lyrics:

May it be an evening star
Shines down upon you
May it be when darkness falls
Your heart will be true
You walk a lonely road
Oh! How far you are from home

Mornie utulie
Believe and you will find your way
Mornie alantie
A promise lives within you now

May it be the shadow's call
Will fly away
May it be your journey on
To light the day
When the night is overcome
You may rise to find the sun

Mornie utulie (darkness has come)
Believe and you will find your way
Mornie alantie (darkness has fallen)
A promise lives within you now

So not the thing I would normally listen to but after seeing "Last Night" earlier and this track being used at the end thought I might as well post it. It fitted the film to a tee and so affecting...evocative in its own way regardless...

5TH DIMENSION

Age Of Aquarius Lyrics



When the moon is in the Seventh House
And Jupiter aligns with Mars
Then peace will guide the planets
And love will steer the stars

This is the dawning of the Age of Aquarius
The Age of Aquarius
Aquarius! Aquarius!

Harmony and understanding
Sympathy and trust abounding
No more falsehoods or derisions
Golden living dreams of visions
Mystic crystal revelation
And the minds true liberation

Aquarius, Aquarius

When the moon is in the seventh house
And Jupiter aligns with Mars
Then peace will guide the planets
And love will steer the stars

This is the dawning of the age of Aquarius
The age of Aquarius, Aquarius, Aquarius
Aquarius, Aquarius

Let the sun shine, Let the sun shine in, The sun shine
in
Let the sun shine, Let the sun shine in, The sun shine
in
Let the sun shine, Let the sun shine in, The sun shine
in
Let the sun shine, Let the sun shine in, The sun shine
in
Let the sun shine, Let the sun shine in, The sun shine
in
Let the sun shine, Let the sun shine in, The sun shine
in
Let the sun shine, Let the sun shine in, The sun shine
in
Let the sun shine, Let the sun shine in, The sun shine
in
Let the sun shine, Let the sun shine in, The sun shine
in
Let the sun shine, Let the sun shine in, The sun shine
in
Let the sun shine, Let the sun shine in, The sun shine

Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo

Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo

~*~*~

A beautiful rendition of a Sikh mantra -

Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo (the Adi Mantra)

"I bow to the Infinite Creator, I bow to the Divine Teacher within."

Tears of joy flowed when I first listened to this version, inspiring true worship from the Heart.



The rain is pouring down
Like all the souls you sent here
Coming to this earth
To find healing

Mother earth takes in the rain
Like your heart takes my voice
Let us free eachother
With our prayers, with our voice

And I'm coming home
And I'm coming home
And I'm coming home
And I'm coming home

Ong namo guru dev namo / repeat

Guru dev guru dev namo / repeat

I bow my head to God.
And God took all of me.
Every imperfection
God took all of me

And every day
God lives and breathes through me
Looking in the mirror
I love you sweet God

Oh my beloved
Kindness of the heart
I bow to you

Divine Teacher
Beloved Friend
I bow to you

Again and again!

Lotus sitting on the water
Beyound time and space

This is your way
This is your way

Ong namo guru dev namo / repeat


This is your way
This is your grace
This is your way
This is your grace

Every breath I take
This is your way
This is your grace

Every word I speak
This is your way
This is your grace

Every tear I shed
This is your way
This is your grace

Every hand I hold
This is your way
This is your grace

Every thought I have
This is your way
This is your grace
