Once recorded - lost... found again...

[Skybird]

There are songs and pieces of music that can be done right only by one singer, or artist. Not all songs are like this, but some: before you did not see it that way, but after this somebody came along and performed it you just know that it can't be done any better. It must not always be the high art, but what it is about is that things just perfectly match right in a perfect moment of time: place, mood, voice, song, performance

These two gems are part of a broadcast from German TV sometimes in the mid-80s, the first song is not being done by anybody else like by good ol' Sammy who is doing it brilliantly, and for some reason it always touches me, really; and the second he only performed very rarely only anyway. Back then I had recorded the show on VHS - only to lose that video soon time after. I just found it at youtube this evening. It made me doing a time warp.

Enjoy!
