East Meets West (Count Vlad does the Moody Blues)
East Meets West - YouTube ^ | Count Vlad

Posted on 09/06/2019 3:57:55 PM PDT by BEJ

Count Vlad has collaborated with different people at different times. In this piece he collaborated with Tom Davis to create a song in the vein of the Moody Blues from the 1970s. The Moody Blues were your quintessential cosmic hippie band that sang of Timothy Leary, going to India and taking LSD. If you enjoy the music, please subscribe to the count's channel.

This has to be one of the strangest/most unusual I've seen.

Leningrad Cowboys Red Army Choir SWEET HOME ALABAMA

It saddens me to have to report that:

Famed Red Army Choir Died In Russian Plane Crash

"Many of the 92 dead when a Russian military passenger jet crashed into the Black Sea Sunday were members of the famed Red Army Choir, officially known as the Alexandrov Military Ensemble."

We have been to 15 or 20 Moody Blues concerts since 1973. We drove across three states one time. They still sound great. Christians. Still married to first wife.

At onetime Pretty Things were considered more revolutionary than the Rolling Stones

Yes, their version of Stairway To Heaven was amazing and with the Red Choir in the background.

Saw them many years ago on Youtube, probably because a fellow Freeper suggested them in a post. Excellent ! RIP Red Army Chorus.

Thanks for the links. I didn’t know the Red Army Chorus died in a plane crash. That’s too bad, they were perfect for the Cowboys.

Justin Hayward is one of the most underrated guitarists.
