Music for Religion & Spirituality

[Dr. McCoy]

Thanks to all. It's going to take me a while to catch up with all of these. I like the Talking Heads one so far.

Early blues that never gets old.

Wish Youtube hadn't taken down the studio version of "Gotta Serve Sombody" by Dylan.

If there is a better version than this, please put it up.

Hank Williams: "House of Gold"

Pandit Jasraj: "Shivastakam" (This singer is, well, awesome. Although this rather uncharacteristically poppy song certainly isn't him at his best, I don't have time now to dig through everything on Youtube to find something better.)

The Swan Silvertones: "Saviour Pass Me Not"

"I'll Fly Away"

Monteverdi: "Ave Maris Stella" (best "amen" ever)

[Funk500]

from possibly my fave album of all time

[Dr. McCoy]

[Wookiee]

Two for you on a Sunday night:

John Legend "Motherless Child"

Izzy "Somewhere Over the Rainbow"

[Dr. McCoy]

Nice take on Randy Newman's song.

Thomas Tallis, Spem In Alium (1570). I consider this an emotionally dangerous piece of music. I have never attended a live performance, but would very much like to risk it.

Gregorio Allegri, Miserere Mei Deus (1638).

Samuel Barber, Angus Dei, Adagio For Strings (1967).
