Happy Rhodes - Ra Is A Busy God (New Haven house concert)

Happy Rhodes performing her song "Ra Is A Busy God" from her album Many Worlds Are Born Tonight. Bob Muller is on percussion.

This was a house concert in New Haven, CT at the home of Meth and Woj.

Shot with a Sony DV camera with a breathtakingly stupid design that requires removal from the tripod to change the tape.

She's so talented!

One of my dreams would be to see her singing live...but thanks to these video I can dream I'm in the audience...so thank you, this is so precious!

(And I totally love the lyrics on the video, so I don't have to open another page, it's great!!!)

@marckarlock Glad to make them available. Hopefully she'll tour again. The last time she did was before YouTube was rolling and she has acquired a lot of fans. The lyrics are not that difficult to do and make the video available for listeners in dozens of languages as well.

3:22 to 4:04 is a secret magical realm. wherein you will smile laugh dance or cry. or simply stare in amazement. since mere adjectives will not be able to properly describe what you feel. (just remember to breathe). though whatever you do it will be done with a feeling of true love. for some of you it may be the first time you have ever this way. it's o.k. everything is just fine. how about another listen?

@TheAgentOfTruth Vickie here (not k8fan, who's my husband). Even a year later, this is one of my all-time favorite Comments. I love reading all the comments on Happy's music, but this just gives me chills. Thank you.

I am just so thankful to see this somewhat live... I love her, always have. Although this version is definitely back to her early 90s days, it is as beautiful in this version as it is on her album.... *shivers*
