epiphany

Post by uncle onion »

Has anyone had a religious type epiphany while at a Burt Bacharach Concert? I did in London. It was like a chorus of angels singing.

Bonjour 'uncle onion';

The instrumental that send me into the Cosmos is the, “The Look Of Love“ (Live Japan 1971). When those Violin kick in, I think if we knew what Angels sound like, this would be it!!!

There isn’t a week that goes by and I don’t play this in my car on the way to work!

It also help that you have a great system and 8 speakers! Sometimes I think the whole Symphony is in the car with me!!! Truly Heavenly!!!

Take care;

Vincent

I have religious epiphanies listening to BB on my boombox!!

During, say, the instrumental breaks on "Long Ago Tomorrow", "Promises, Promises", or "The World Is A Circle", I am just flying with euphoria!

How many times have I heard Jackie De Shannon's WTWNNIL... yet the key modulation near the end always brings a lump to my throat.

And the giddiness of "Faker, Faker" always gives me a grin from ear-to-ear.
