I am listening to myself playing Aka Tombo on glockenspiel.

Nice, I always liked the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band version too. 

 

Also like some of their raunchier songs, which I will warn may be NSFW.

NSFW? You mean like "The Loophole" ?

Yeah, me too. I also saw them in concert about five times.

Indeed.  Or Sex with Ducks.

Another time ,another planet.

Apparently, reading YT comments, Satie hated peope stopping what they were doing to listen to this. He intended it as Muzak or wallpaper music. :)  I think it too irregular a pace with some dynamics to be muzak.

Two absolute legends jamming. 

The sadly late and truly great Don Partridge. Definitely the best real busker ever.

Seemed like it was time to listen to one of my country's greatest poets again - Bob Dylan:

Will this song ever not be timely?

I think the first line may have come from the title of  this book (but don't quote me)

I think that Dylan is dead to the new Dylan .

 

Over the last 25 years or so it has been highly amusing to see German heavy rock band Rammstein quietly but consistently appropriating and repurposing right-wing iconography to serve politically progressive purposes. It's a brilliant strategy. Absolutely immune to any accusation of 'wokeness'. But at the cost of being somewhat challenging to those who want nothing to do with that particular kind of iconography.

For those of a nervous disposition, the title means exactly what you think it means so feel free not to view if you think you'll be offended. Though by doing so you'll miss some beautiful wind band intros and outros by members of the Dresdner Staatskapelle Orkester which would be a pity.
