Любимая музыка
Сегодня день рождения Элисон Краус, одной из моих любимых исполнительниц Bluegrass. Поздравляю от всей души и желаю замечательному коллективу Alison Krauss and Union Station (AKUS) долгих лет успешной творческой жизни!
Фотографии взяты с сайта AKUS Fan Community.
Желающим получить представление о такой музыке рекомендую посмотреть отличный фильм «O Brother, Where Art Thou? / О, где же ты, брат?», где среди прочих Bluegrass-песен есть и «Down To The River To Pray» в исполнении Элисон (эпизод с крещением в реке)
As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who shall wear the starry crown
Good Lord, show me the way !O sisters let's go down,
Let's go down, come on down,
O sisters let's go down,
Down in the river to pray.As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who shall wear the robe and crown
Good Lord, show me the way !O brothers let's go down,
Let's go down, come on down,
Come on brothers let's go down,
Down in the river to pray.As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who shall wear the starry crown
Good Lord, show me the way !O fathers let's go down,
Let's go down, come on down,
O fathers let's go down,
Down in the river to pray.As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who shall wear the robe and crown
Good Lord, show me the way !O mothers let's go down,
Let's go down, don't you want to go down,
Come on mothers let's go down,
Down in the river to pray.As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who shall wear the starry crown
Good Lord, show me the way !O sinners let's go down,
Let's go down, come on down,
O sinners let's go down,
Down in the river to pray.As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who shall wear the robe and crown
Good Lord, show me the way !
Ну и в дополнение — очень приятная песня Who Can Blame You.
Who can blame you, though your heart's untrue
When you say it's my fault anyway
You turn your head from the tears I've shed
Though your heart is untrue, who can blame youYou justify yourself in your love for someone else
When you say, I never loved you anyway
Your vows were made in vain, although my love still remains
Though you broke my heart in two, who can blame youWho can blame you, though your heart's untrue
When you say it's my fault anyway
You turn your head from the tears I've shed
Though your heart is untrue, who can blame youIn a heart of rusty steel you kept your love affair concealed
'Til the day she was asking you to stay
You turned your head from the tears I've shed
Though you broke a heart in two, who can blame youWho can blame you, though your heart's untrue
When you say it's my fault anyway
You turn your head from the tears I've shed
Though your heart is untrue, who can blame youWho can blame you, though your heart's untrue
When you say it's my fault anyway
You turn your head from the tears I've shed
Though your heart is untrue, who can blame youYou turn your head from the tears I've shed
Though your heart is untrue, who can blame you
