YouTube music videos A-Z - (Part E)

....grrrrowwwwlll....

P is for RhaPsody in Blue, which premiered 90 years ago to this day.

 

Q is for Que Rico Mambo (later known as 'Mambo Jambo') | The King, Perez Prado

 

R is for East River Pipe

 

I've posted this band, but I don't think it was this video: Lovebettie: Hello Stranger



The singer and guitar player took one of my classes when they were in college students. She was nice and quite smart... But you'd never have guessed that she'd be able to front a band.

 

T is for Tinariwen - Toumast Tincha

 

U is for Flying Lotus - Zodic Sh*t

 

A is for BAltimorA - TArzAn Boy
Love me some greAt ItAlo Disco.


MOD NOTE: an A is basically an upside down V with a line added, so we'll allow Baltimora here in the V slot - welcome to the thread Ruh7!

 

W is for a terrific Civil Rights anthem by Nina Simone, who did not originate "I Wish I Would Know How It Would Feel to Be Free" but made it matter even more in the 1960s and 70s when she started singing it in concert.

 

Oh sorry haha did not know it was used lol haha. You are too rad.

X is for Xavier Rudd for adding non-Xenophobic tone to his music by playing aboriginal music with his own style.

Xavier Rudd - Follow the Sun

 

Y is for Yelawolf - Speak Her Sex

 

Z is for White Zombie - More Human Than Human

 

Been wanting to post this one for awhile (hence pointedly skipping the letters and numbers, because someone will snag A if I wait). Of all the 1980s-era collaborations, this was the song which really rocked. It's Artists United Against Apartheid with "Sun City"

 

B is for Afrika Bambaataa - Renegades of Funk

 

Aside from liking the song and the video, my first thought was always just how awkward Joey Ramone's cameo looks.

 

Francesco Di Giacomo, the voice of prog rock's band Banco del Mutuo Soccorso died yesterday in a car accident, RIP

Banco del Mutuo Soccorso - Il giardino del mago - a) passo dopo passo... b) Chi ride e chi geme... c) Coi capelli sciolti al vento... d) Compenetrazione...

 

D is for Chaka Demus & Pliers - Murder She Wrote

 

E is for Eddie Cochran | C'mon Everybody

 

F is for Famous by Nick Helm




Taken from the BBC3 comedy 'Uncle' which has just finished it's 1st season. Enjoyable show aided by the performances of Helm and the young Elliot Speller-Gillott and Helm's musical ditties.

G is for Shigeto - Live on KEXP

 

H is for ex-Talking Heads man Jerry Harrison, here with "Man with a Gun:

Holy Moly. It's a gorgeous piano gospel ballad.
