Snowy White - Bird Of Paradise 2004, & Black Magic Woman

[baardk2]

One of the very best guitarist ever!!!

Like vanu49 notes; while SW is a musicians' musician par excellence, he is - I believe primarily because of this song - also well known among a broader audience favouring players who offer genuine taste and feeling.

But OlUncleJone; while this version is so breathtakingly beautiful that not even the ghastly drum machine can disturb the magic, would you know why SW has rearranged it so close up to Brothers in Arms? We all know his song came first; is there a story behind this arrangement?

[OlUncleJoe]

I guess the drum machine was meant to make it sound like Rammstein.

As far as "Brothers In Arms" goes - gosh, I always thaught it's the same song...

I guess Snowy was just trying to sell a few more albums.

PS -

BTW, "Joe" is spelled without an 'n'.

:-)))

[Viking541]

Sorry about the misspelling; a mere "editorial"!!

Guess you are right about the motivation for this version - particularly with regard to the drummachine-LOL (great comparison!!!)

[gavinmorris]

@OlUncleJoe I'm pretty sure that drum machine is a Japanese man who's timing has yet to be rivalled by anything Roland can make.

[vanu49]

"Most underrated", well hes not looking for the big thing, thats why I love his work. People who love good music know how to find him.

Tks for the upload.

[taktiktafel]

Great version! Sounds much better than the studio version, I think.

[OlUncleJoe]

They're both studio versions from "The way it is".

Snowy White - one of the top guitar players ever, and most certainly THE most underrated。

我很赞同。因为我看了BSAS LIVE roger waters，and 《wet dream》of rick wright in 1979，怀特先生的吉他水平确实很高，不光是布鲁斯，而且包括­摇滚。

风格虽然多变，但吉他很稳，严重被低估了的顶级吉他艺术家。
