Mickey Hart fans can tune in to the first in a series of videos featuring Mickey with George Lucas telling stories of their work together, the importance of sound in film, and the power of music. "Episode One" finds George & Mickey "Back to the Big Room" at Lucas' Skywalker Ranch where Hart recorded the Gyuto Monks Tantric Choir and the Dzintars Latvian Choir. These titles were recently re-released as part of the Mickey Hart Collection on Smithsonian Folkways in October, 2011. Both the Folkways and Mickey Hart sites, social media and YouTube pages have featured healthy doses of bonus content including: Mickey and Carlos Santana discussing Babatunde Olatunji, Zakir Hussain on the Stone House Sessions, Prof. Robert Thurman discussing the chants of the Gyuto Monks, timeless images from the "Apocalypse Now Sessions" with Francis Ford Coppola, Airto and Bill Kreutzmann, excerpts and previously unreleased interviews from Mickey's books, "Drumming at the Edge of Magic" and "The Songcatchers."

  • It's funny, my first thought was pretty much what everyone on here is saying. Why Keep the music organic, but not the film fx? 

  • Wow. Really looking forward to Episode Two!

  • Lucas is a man of action.

  • This is nice but what the world needs is George Lucas meets Lars Ulrich ;)

  • Both men are pioneers of their crafts. They are both willing to explore all the possibilities of expressing their visions. For those people who wish to be critics will never catch up with them as they are continuing their exploration. This is how it always was, and shall always be.(~); >

  • @Kefka0630 RIGHT ARM MAN RIGHT ARM!!!

  • Is this the same George Lucas who junked up the Star Wars universe with CGI?

  • "Mickey Hart fans can tune in to the first in a series of videos featuring Mickey with George Lucas"

    Tune in where? Is this something that's being televised? Only on the web? This is an interesting teaser, but I can't tell if what we're watching is all there is. If it's an actual program it would be nice to find out where and when to view the whole thing. It seems like it wants to say PBS.

  • Amazing how much understanding George Lucas has for the need for instruments to be voiced authentically and not digitally replicated in music. Considering his "REPLACE EVERYTHING WITH POORLY RENDERED CG" approach to film making, you'd think it'd be the opposite.

  • to awsome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
