Both 'covers' naturally. IMO doesn`t get better than Bobby King + Terry Evans + Ry Cooder and their take on James Carr`s immortal "At The Dark End Of The Street" ..... Carr owns the song, but King/Evans/Cooder come very close ..... Quote

Just discovered this a few days ago -- a lied by Johannes Brahms, "Der Tod, das ist die kühle Nacht," performed by Margaret Price and James Lockhart. It's incredibly beautiful and melancholy music, like only Brahms can do it: Brahms set the music to a poem by Heinrich Heine. Der Tod das ist die kühle Nacht, Das Leben ist der schwüle Tag. Es dunkelt schon, mich schläfert, Der Tag hat mich müd gemacht. Über mein Bett erhebt sich ein Baum, Drin singt die junge Nachtigall; Sie singt von lauter Liebe, Ich hör es sogar im Traum. An English translation: Death is the cool night, Life is the humid day, It's getting dark, I'm sleepy, The day has made me tired. A tree rises over my bed, The young nightingale sings in it. It's singing of nothing but love, I hear it even in my dream. Edited September 16, 2016 by HutchFan Quote

JohnS Posted September 26, 2016 Report Posted September 26, 2016 Roswell Rudd. Two cds played in quick succession. Steve Lacy/Roswell Rudd, Monk's Mood and Archie Shepp/Roswell Rudd Live in NewYork. Too many terrific solos by Rudd here to name and individual track. Quote
