Still blood moon? Hey world, in this warm day, I have a hard cold choice. I must choose 10 songs from the band that already been around since they released their first recording album in 1964,  until two years ago. Worse, in this year, they are still knockin' the industry.  Yep, the one and only, The Rolling Stones, ladies and gentlemen.  Heck, looks like they will survive from apocalypse.  My first touch of The Rolling Stones happened back in 1987. I was about 6 year old. Get together with family in living room, watching the telly with uncles. At the prime time at that time, one of the TV station aired the TV Series called 'Tour of Duty', aaa! if you remember about that series you must be remember of the theme song.  Me : "Hey unc, what song is this" Uncle : (Which not the best music digger) "I don't know the title, but I do know the band" Me : "Who?"

Pink Floyd, has changed the way I listen-pin-point of a music, since the first time I bought their album in a cassette format, back in the 90's. The Wall. Personally, even though Gilmour era that brought me to this band, once I found Barrett, I just fell for his time. Don't mean to cross out, but it just my heart told me so.

Thank God it's Friday! This post is slightly differ from previous and next. I'm trying to meet the cliche, which, everyone not always agree of. The post would be "My Best 10 of... Films of All Time". Lotsa body of work fields are way more competent than me about this one. Critiques,  Media platforms, or Film personas. Maybe they pick "Godfather part II",  or "Apocalypse Now",  etc, to be their number one film of all time.  Well, like you and I, also everybody, we have  our own choice to pick. As for me, I picked these films because of the impact or influence  to the people that I ever showed of these films to them.  Without further ado and with due respect of filmmakers around the world, I present you "My Best 10 of... Films of All Time" with the teaser video below. PLAY ME, THANK YOU You might want to add the collections : Number ten , nine , eight , seven , six , five , four , three , two ... and my

My Best 10 of... The Doors

Good day somewhere there! What can I say about this super group? 4 pieces of greatness musicality and high supreme of testosterone, soulful unpredictable lyrics, or brave quartet? you tell me. The Doors! from Venice beach, Los Angeles, California... to the world.  Back in the 90's, yes sir, I'm a product of 'Grew up in the 90's but worship 60's music". When  unfortunately, I was still in mohawk-bizzare outfit-punk-rock-attitude, one of my friends had me  listening to this band. His convincing theme was "So you like The Ramones? must dig this album"  while offered me 1967 The Doors album. There it was, 'Take It as It Comes', covered by Ramones,   first time my ear heard it by the original band. Shocked and defeated.  Since then, I devoted to. Okay, without further ado and with liberty of my memory, I present you, 'My Best 10 of... The Doors' with the teaser video below DOWNLOAD the full set HERE Ser

My Best 10 of... Jimi Hendrix

Hell-o World,  In one summer fine day, I asked 10 friends. They are guitarists, and so into rock music. It was a simple question. Who's the best guitarist of all time. Well, 7 out of 10 answered me with bold statement. Jimi Hendrix.  Well obviously, it is a safe answer. Truth is Jimi is the right answer.  I do love Jimi. The sound, style and all that greatness, but one thing commonly left about him. Jimi was a helluva lyricist. Lot of his songs made me dig more about him. The choice of words. Now, as I named the blog about, I have to pick 10 pieces of Jimi's.  Hard one, and consumed  my time. So without further ado and with a liberty of feeling,  I present you 'My Best 10 of...
