If you haven't experienced Nick Drake...here is a good one.
This video is a haunting short by director Tim Pope of Nick Drake's River Man.

Catch the background sounds & scenes.....they make it even more haunting.
This will get you, misty, and any fans of timeless folk/psych.....

Thank you James, gonna have a listen. Thank you for sharing Nick Drake. :)

Strange, wicked but artistic in my opinion.
It's not the song, it's the way this was shot in the movie. It has something and I can't name it. Strange, funny, buy yet powerful in a weird way.

Your avatar's kind of 'wild woman" today, m. =)
I like your video....reminds me a little of a Tom Waits kind of bluesy piano bar tune with the cool video.



Check this out....one of the coolest and inventive music videos I've seen in a long time...with some great music too......:mrgreen:

Wild woman? Cause of my hair? :lol:
It's a photo from a couple of months ago from when my hair was black. It's more brown now, but it's gonna go back to being blond when my hair has settled down a bit. I want to have my original color back. =)

Yes the video is special. Herman was special. Sadly he jumped of the Hilton hotel in Amsterdam a few years ago. :(
Sure the guy was crazy but such a sweet man and an artist in so many ways.

Yes I know that vid James. :D Kostis posted it some days ago I remember and I love it. Very creative. :wink:

Nope my hairdresser is very happy with me that I want to go back to blond. But it isn't that simple to go from black/brown to dirty blond again.

He says my hair needs to settle down first. :lol:
He hated when I went black, his wife too. They were mad at me. They love my hair. :lol: But you can't say no to a customer.

blonde to black would be a shock...... :shock: :wink:

But as the immortal Blind Faith sang..."DO what you like". :mrgreen: Time to go natural....back to nature n' all....I misread your natural color....thought it was black. I'm a bit bleary eyed.

We'll look forward to the blonde YOU, Mon. That will change how you handle those avatars....that B&W contrast.....you'll need black backdrops! :wink:

Black backdrops? I don't think I am that good at making avatars yet. :lol:
Yes I've been dark now for years. From brown to red to black and brown. Really wanna go back to my natural color again. It feels good. It's time. :D

I'm glad you like him, mon. He was such a talent. I'll give you another beauty here....his songs are always a mix of beauty & darkness....."Time Has Told Me"....just down our alley, right, mon?

If you are interested in a great starter CD box....go to ebay and find "Fruit Tree"....a 3 CD + DVD Box of his 3 (he only did three! So Best-Of's don't make sense, since all are essential) LPs & a nice DVD with many liner notes. You can get it for a good price....it's oop...so watch the price .....anywhere from $30 (US) to $250!!! I got mine for $40. Happy llisteniing

Deer Hunter is a great movie. I saw that when I was serving my national service,
stationed at the obscurest of all places I've been.
It was very moving, as I recall
In that year, we had an intense visitation of energy
