Have I got a thread in here? Can't recall, and the depths are so far down...
Anyway, I'll try to add some of the tracks that move me.
let me start with this one:
Tomorrow is my turn

Does she mean tomorrow I die, or tomorrow I live?
She sings this so beautifully - hard to believe such beauty can be placed so simply in song...

Live - I vote for live.

Two months before he was murdered by the CIA-Mafia for involvement with the Black Panthers, this full concert was in Atlanta with an audience of 300,000.
It has now been released as a CD called Freedom.

Foxy lady is a ripper...
There has never been any performer so fully ensconced in the music as this man, before or after - except in the non-popular area. Hendrix is the uncontested master of rock performance.

I had never heard that before.
-
Not so long ago, some (heavily redacted) documents were released from CIA, which when pieced together with, also not so long ago, released details by the doctor who treated Hendrix in hospital, built up the real picture of what happened. The woman who was with him that night, after many years, finally decided to tell the real story, after she had been fibbing for so long - she died just before she talked.

This piece just really gets to me - I love the tortured anguish and release, the rawness and reality of his playing.
This is what I think music should be about...

How cool to hear the composer playing his own work. Very bright and passionate he.
That's a really good recording. So often, the older ones have a low volume.

This is such an iconic melody - hard to imagine another quite so powerful in the mind. And Paul's rendition is also iconic. To think what the politicians did to this man - makes your blood boil.

The sound quality suffers in this old recording, but when you compare it to more recent renditions, where the sound quality is better, you realise Hoffmann had something special going on for such an abrupt-structured music.

I have to confess that most of Lizst's compositions make me a "little bit jumpy".
Vladimir Horowitz is the man for Lizst ...

Not often do I like a recent popular song, but this one caught my eye at the gym recently.

This is a stunningly beautiful piece by Nitin Sawney, which I have probably posted before.
Two versions:
From the album - much better sound quality
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YhBYykbZWN4
From the film it was applied to - Nitin wrote the soundtrack to this old restored silent film, and this song was the feature:

Beautiful, Michael!

This brings back so many memories for me, and I've never forgotten the opening lyrics.
MIKE BLOOMFIELD & AL KOOPER
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3wwXkQUfVs
In a world filled with so much sorrow
Everyone is thinking of himself
So little time is spent on planning for tomorrow
& no one really seems to care
Now it's so easy to be lost in a land
Where no one wants to help you, no one tries to understand
But we'll hold hands forever
& we'll make our plans together
Till the end of time, darling
Till the end of time, my sweet darlin'
By your side I'll always be, though things be good or bad
From now until eternity, I'll do anything I can
To make you happy when you're feeling blue
Should you ever have to leave me, I'll wait for you
& we'll hold hands forever
& we'll make our plans together
Till the end of time, darling
Till the end of time, my sweet darlin'
(instrumental)
Now don't you worry
I'll make you happy when you're feeling blue
Should you ever have to leave me, I'll wait for you
& we'll hold hands forever
& we'll make our plans forever
Till the end of time, darling
Till the end of time, my sweet darlin'
(Till the end of time) we'll be side by side
(Till the end of time)
