  • Rock Album Discography Last Up-Date: September 27Th, 2021
    Rock Album Discography Last up-date: September 27th, 2021 Rock Album Discography “Music was my first love, and it will be my last” was the first line of the virteous song “Music” on the album “Rebel”, which was produced by Alan Parson, sung by John Miles, and released I n 1976. From my point of view, there is no other citation, which more properly expresses the emotional impact of music to human beings. People come and go, but music remains forever, since acoustic waves are not bound to matter like monuments, paintings, or sculptures. In contrast, music as sound in general is transmitted by matter vibrations and can be reproduced independent of space and time. In this way, music is able to connect humans from the earliest high cultures to people of our present societies all over the world. Music is indeed a universal language and likely not restricted to our planetary society. The importance of music to the human society is also underlined by the Voyager mission: Both Voyager spacecrafts, which were launched at August 20th and September 05th, 1977, are bound for the stars, now, after their visits to the outer planets of our solar system (mission status: https://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/status/). They carry a gold- plated copper phonograph record, which comprises 90 minutes of music selected from all cultures next to sounds, spoken messages, and images from our planet Earth. There is rather little hope that any extraterrestrial form of life will ever come along the Voyager spacecrafts. But if this is yet going to happen they are likely able to understand the sound of music from these records at least.

  • December 2014 Newsletter
    DECEMBER 2014 Newsletter ------------------------------------------------------------------- Yesterday & Today Records P O Box 54 Miranda NSW 2228 phone: (02) 95311710 [email protected] www.yesterdayandtoday.com.au ------------------------------------------------------------------- Pretty late for a newsletter but it doesn’t matter. I have found that no one really buys from me for Christmas anyway; they buy for their self gratification and to be honest there is NO better reason. Secondly I was fortunate enough to go to the USA on a buying trip spending a bit of time in both Los Angeles and Music City, Nashville. The results as far as buys go are reflected in the newsletter. As far as quality goes there has never been a newsletter to rival this one. Don’t take my word though...check it out. In Nashville I was fortunate to see the Timejumpers and also (for the first time) the Grand Ol Opry which had commenced its winter Ryman Auditorium run. Highlight of the latter was Old Crow Medicine Show. They don’t really do anything new but have borrowed well and are just so entertaining. Vince Gill is now a full time member of the Timejumpers but they are equal opportunity employers, so to speak and Vince is an equal member. Ameripolitan Music Awards Country music, the Nashville mainstream variety, has departed so far from “country” music that some are starting to call “country music” as we know it (not as Nashville promotes it) something else. Well, the great man Dale Watson is anyway. For the past couple of years he has been promoting the Annual Ameripolitan Music Awards.

  • L'art Des Cavernes En Action
    plastic and fi ne arts où et quand? where and when? -berck- Sophie Calle I asked the clairvoyant, Maud Kristen, to tell me my future so I could chase it and get it moving faster. Where? When? What? She refused. I reduced my ambitions. Where and when? No more. At fi rst, she was reticent. She refused to give me orders. I insisted. A month later, she accepted to try the experiment without committing herself further. She said: “Preserving your free is essential, as essential as preserving my credibility. Instead of a consultation, I shall offer an attempt at a creative game. Using visions and my knowledge of divinatory arts, I shall suggest directions and possibilities that you are free to choose, investigate, try out and interpret yourself through your artistic work.” Then, she read my cards. Sophie Calle was born in Paris in 1953. At the end of the seventies she started taking photos, and particularly photos of people she shadowed. From 1972 to 1979 she visited the Lebanon, Greece, Mexico and Guatemala. When she returned to Paris, she started writing her own personal diary, in which she scrupuluosly noted down the details of her shadowing activities. This taste for deliberately SIZE: 14,8 X 21 CM risky and perverse scenarios became publicly conspicuous from 1980 and the 11th Paris Biennial. 156 PAGES Through the years her many exhibitions have acquired her international renown, and she now BOUND WITH FLAPS exhibits regularly in Japan, the US, Great Britain, Germany and Spain.
