Happy New Year 2024

A Nostalgic Journey with Elad David "Old and Wise" Cover Every now and again, a classic song cover defies expectations and gives an old favorite a fresh new look. Elad David's rendition of "Old and Wise," originally by Alan Parsons, is a perfect example of this rare phenomenon. With its emotional ukulele arrangement and nostalgic aura, this unique two-track release has a little something for everyone, and it's guaranteed to leave you feeling relaxed and introspective.

Elad David's intricate instrumentation creates a lush sonic landscape, with gentle ukulele strums melding seamlessly with the subtle yet emotive backing tracks. The result is a soothing, easy listening experience that transports you back to a different era. However, it's the second track that truly shines. This "naked" version, featuring only a ukulele, showcases Elad David's undeniable talent and passion for the music. The stripped-down arrangement highlights the purity of the ukulele, its distinctive plucks and strums eliciting a sense of nostalgia that feels both intimate and raw. Elad David's masterful recording, production, mixing, and mastering are evident in every aspect of this release. The balance between the instrumentation and the overall ambiance is impeccable, creating a harmony that envelops the listener in a warm, comforting embrace. https://youtu.be/jLXC_6sctZI Listening to these tracks, it's impossible not to be reminded of other great artists and their unique takes on classic songs. Elad David's cover of "Old and Wise" evokes memories of José González's delicate acoustic guitar work, while the emotional resonance of the ukulele brings to mind the heartfelt performances of Jake Shimabukuro or Israel Kamakawiwoʻole. In a world filled with loud, fast-paced music, it's refreshing to find an artist like Elad David who can create such a captivating and tranquil atmosphere. This cover of "Old and Wise" is the perfect soundtrack for a quiet evening spent reminiscing about the past or simply unwinding after a long day. Elad David's cover of "Old and Wise" is an enchanting and nostalgic journey through the power of music. The emotional ukulele arrangement and the artful balance between the two versions make this release a must-listen for fans of relaxing, easy listening music. Elad David's "Old and Wise" will unquestionably enchant you, whether you're a fan of the original Alan Parsons song or a beginner to the world of ukulele covers. So, sit back, unwind, and allow this calming and evocative cover carry you to a world of reflection and peace. Follow Elad David on Website, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and Instagram.

[Pyramid] [The Alan Parsons Project] [1978] [LP] This is the third masterpiece of The Alan Parsons Project. Nothing more needs to be said. Besides the phantastic instrumentals, once again some great tearjerkers on this Album. . . . . . “What goes up must come down What must rise must fall And what goes on in your life Is writing on the wall If all things must fall Why build a miracle at all? If all things must pass Even a miracle won't last What goes up must come down What must stand alone And what goes on in your mind Is turning into stone If all things must fall Why build a miracle at all? If all things must pass Even a pyramid won't last How can you be so sure? How do you know what the earth will endure? How can you be so sure? That the wonders you've made in your life Will be seen by the millions who Follow to visit the site of your dream What goes up must come down What goes around must come 'round What's been lost must be found” . . . . .

SONG OF THE WEEK! “Born Lover” by Kris Ryder a.k.a. Chris Andrews  https://timchrisandrews.bandcamp.com/track/born-lover …This late 70s New Wave “blue-eyed soul” song urges the natural-born instinct to love, with a groove that feels like a prequel to “Beat It” (Michael Jackson) and “Easy Lover” (Philip Bailey & Phil Collins). “Born Lover” features sizzling guitar by Phil Palmer (Dire Straits) “dueling” with synthesizer by Billy Lyall (Alan Parsons, Pilot). On a cosmic jukebox it would place near Level 42 and Boz Scaggs. https://timchrisandrews.bandcamp.com/track/born-lover

If this is your introduction to Chris Andrews, he’s a British singer-songwriter and recording artist whose songs have been covered by Roger Daltrey, David Essex, and Davy Jones (Monkees). Under the name Tim Andrews he was a champion of late 60s psychedelic pop and (later), as Kris Ryder, he released New Wave synthpop sides in the 80s. Chris was also part of the seminal freakbeat band Fleur de Lys.
