@ 37-38 that's sally geeson NOT una stubbs

I'm SURE these two numpties MEANT well but this really is 'How Not To See/Witness A Big Cat'......they [& ANYONE with a GENUINE INTEREST] should read Jim Corbett's wonderful books on Man Eaters of India. The whistling kettle 'takes the cake' in the Cakewalk!!!

IF the vid is kosher I reiterate what I said here a long time ago...this COULD well be a LARGE feline [hybrid...lion/cougar/panther etc.] ..with a sheep KILL flung across its back, this being their method of securing their kills especially when alarmed as this one appears to be. I wish 'BofZ' wou...

This Cornet MASTERPIECE should SURELY have been sealed in the container & launched into space back in 1977 as by NOW we'd have had aliens on the line saying "Send more early Armstrong PLEASE!" [to paraphrase Steve Martin line re. Chuck Berry] Gordon Whitworth used to knock out a GOOD Tpt. 'immy' ...

@RCFriedman Bl***y magnificent. Grit in my eyes. TRULY MUSIC with a capital A! Thanx 4 translation.

SURELY ONE of the GREATEST & most POWERFUL musical pieces 'ever'. GR was a GENIUS. As Billy Connoly says " I just knew lots of tunes [when Humblebumming way back] but Gerry was a TRUE musician.

Man was a genius...............pure solid gold GENIUS. Not said lightly either......am an old ex. pro muso who'd have given anything for a piece of GR's talent for music AND LYRICS. Say no more. RIP Gerry xxx

Rejoice Rejoice! That such an exquisite Carol can travel over 400 years [from Piae Cantiones c. 1580] and retain the POWER it has in these troubled times. And SS's supreme musicality ~ to sing this 'live' & 'get away with it' as they frequently did ~ really takes SOME doing. My eyes brim wheneve...

Come come! How you DO exaggerate re. 'Madogue'.......it's not fair to label them garbage and utter shite!!! Why! They.re NOTHING like THAT GOOD for God's Sake.

Just to clarify:~ Gaudete is/was composed for "Piae Cantiones" a collection of carols from the late 16th. century; it is NOT 'folk music...

There's a facet of ALL musicianship which seldom gets a mention these days & it's "ATTACK"..........Should any reader of this want to fully understand its true meaning within a musical context then they need merely to listen to Eddie Cockroach's "Sumptn' Else" and ALL will be revealed. Released i...

Came in on this YT at random & was reminded of SB's powerful persona. Read comments as one does & as a result feel rather ashamed to be a member of the human race ~ as I have frequently felt when reading many other YT comments ~ due to the staggering depths of verbal depravity/cowardice in anonym...

Just ONE of the best films EVER made.........STILL grabs the heart strings even after almost 50 years & the umteenth viewing. Thespian perfection with but ONE exception:~ the AWFUL acting of that utter charlatan Michael Caine. To think that STILL a body of fervant fans think he MADE this epic fil...

@KB7KB7KB7 It wasn't any Music that ruined a great vid....it was that horrific noise in the background which wasn't MUSIC at all, just a totally inappropriate effin row.

@mythoughtfulchannel With respect I say forget the ambition angle....they played musicians' "clever-dickery" music & NOT populist dross. Regrettably it's ALWAYS been the same:~ 3 chord tricks sell! Even Beethoven learned that! Forget quality if you wanna get rich. It's not that the public ARE fic...

Maddy ALMOST as good [LOLOLOL] as "Subo" the Unsqueezed Boil & chubby irish jockette who's already worth 18+ mi££ion thanx 2 mister cool Cowell already. Keep trying Maddy & one day Simon might discover you, God forbid.

42+ years of SES genius.........thankyou x 100000000

@liesl20012 May I second [& THIRD !! ok.....even FOURTH] that!! I First heard Steeleyes c. 1972 & they STILL 'do it for Me'........what a great legacy they left, eh. Superb REAL musicianship.....SO unlike so much of today's shallow & talentless drivel. & YES.....Superb video.....SO.o m-o-v-i-n-...

Elmer P. Bleaty......SUCH a sad loss. R.I.P. Pete. (& Royston) [Heather lives in OZ?xx]

'We' used to follow YT in '60's........quite unforgettable were those PB driven inspired performances..........wonderful & a PRIVILEGE to have seen & enjoyed them LIVE so many times. 'Now' they pay many dozens...

Frivolous 3 chord nonsense like all THE VERY BEST 'pop' & much classical too..........fantastic, & ~ as Janice used to say to David Jacobs half a century & more ago ~ "Oi'll geev eet foive"!!! [& IF U remember that then U're a right old grunter....LOLoveOLenaOLovich]

Exquisite song, exquisite lyric all exquisitely played. William Barnes 'The Dorset Poet' [1801-1886] wrote LL as a poem in Dorset dialect in Nov. 1856 & it was RVW's first musical score in 1902.

My next-door-neighbour is Barnes' GGGGG grandson! He [WB] composed some glorious poetry.............a...

Very lovely. RVW put William Barnes' exquisite poem [in Dorset dialect] to music & like any genius turned genius into super-genius. "Within the woodlands flowery gladed by the oak tree's mossy moot, the shining grass blades timber shaded now do quiver underfoot; And birds do whistle overhead, & w...

That is TRULY awesome to witness.................what a Wonderful World we're blest with. Thnx for posting.

For what it's worth I was 10 when ~ on top deck of a bus going home to Roehampton with my mother ~ we WITNESSED JRHC's [post] arrest, with old Wolseley black police squad cars & clangy bells on top which whisked him away ahead of us to Putney Nik [up the high street on the left as I remember it]...

@ruthd7274 This is the 'original' "Holly & The Ivy" in strong 6/8 whereas later versions are in 3/4 and with a different melody over an entirely different chordal structure.

NOT the "Sans Day" either, this having been 'collected' by the Parson of St. Day in West Cornwall c. 1860 from the local Co...

@msmousette I second this contributor's opinion wholeheartedly and from an apparently similar pro. angle. This is NOT a voice.....it's a ghastly parody of such, utterly devoid of ANY charm or interest. This is the voice of the drunk you [the band] humour on a Sat. eve. in the working men's clu...

He passes my personal 'tear test' ..........I can't type coz I'm weeping at the sheer beauty...................................J.

@jeanenila BUT....Please DO Hear Bjorling/Caruso/Villazon/Kraus......though 'Peaceful Sunday' takes SOME beating I readily admit. These G I A N T S [& others] are SO RARE & their dedication is beyond normal belief!!! ALL 'blessings from above' to a ~ sadly ~ l a r g e l y ungrateful world.

Terrifying talent/dedication/skill/diligence/ EVERYTHING~~~~~Never Bettered nor ever will be. Stop!

@mactopolis "a very poor performance" "quite a few mistakes"....what kind of sad trainspotter are you? I suppose you'd the score before you as you bolstered your ego with a gratuitous criticism? AND!

@MrStupidHead I'm in ABSOLUTE agreement with you...........I get So X at some YT comments, although I try NOT TO!!! This small 'young man' is a natural & will go on to great things....I apply my personal 'Tear Test':~ the voices that cause spontaneous tears which cannot be withheld.......& the...

My two-pennorth:~ "Let's stop 'argyfyin' about who's BEST:~ JeeeZus!!.....we're SO lucky to have SO many simply WONDROUS voices ~ both female & male ~ to interpret the exquisite works of the bygone genius~composers. EVERY single one does their utmost to beautify the great works to the BEST of the...

@troppofiato I second, third , fourth & fifth that wholeheartedly.......THE BEST surely? I am in tears as ever. No more to say.

Good GOD...this is SO exquisite that it actually HURTS me to listen to such beauty of melody & voice. WONDERFUL x 1000000000

(SillyTillyWilly.........what a shame.)

Good GOD~~~~ what a simply beautiful voice.....the late & GREAT & beautiful Lizbet. Will always remember her wonderful masterclasses back in the nineteen eighties.

What wondrous gifts such trained 'proper' voices [to be found in abundance here on YT] bestow on the human race....thanks be to the G...

100% Supreme genius at its VERY best. The impeccable timing/pitch/tongue twisting patter [oh so difficult to get right & maintain the swing] and all done without modern smoke & mirrors deceitful film trickery.

Nathan Birnbaum = George Burns = GENIUS of GENTLE Comedy. He worshipped his best pal Jack Benney and his beloved wife Gracie.
