Ojo a esto. Han restaurado esta actuación de Queen en Munich del 11 febrero del 79 que emitió en su día Musikbox, un programa de la televisión alemana.

"Let me entertain you", del disco llamado Jazz puede ser una de las mejores canciones de esa etapa menos conocida del grupo.

Simple Man is one of the most beloved ballads in Southern rock, featured on Lynyrd Skynyrd’s 1973 debut album.

It was written by Gary Rossington (guitar) and Ronnie Van Zant (lyrics and vocals). It’s an emotional song with a memorable acoustic guitar riff that builds up to the full band.
The inspiration comes directly from the mothers of both musicians. They gave them simple advice about life: be honest, work hard, don’t chase fame or money at any cost, and stay true to yourself.

Musically, it’s masterful, starting softly and building with Rossington’s emotional solo and Van Zant’s deep voice. It speaks of not forgetting one’s roots, avoiding vices, and finding peace in the essentials. It was recorded at Studio One (Georgia) with Al Kooper as producer.

Although it wasn’t a hit single at the time, it became an anthem of Southern rock. Lynyrd Skynyrd almost always played it live, and after Ronnie Van Zant’s death in the 1977 plane crash, it gained even more emotional weight as a legacy of wisdom.

The story of Stevie Ray Vaughan’s tragic accident is one of rock music’s most heartbreaking losses.

It happened in the early hours of August 27, 1990, near East Troy, Wisconsin. Stevie Ray Vaughan was at the peak of his career. After years of battling addiction, he had achieved sobriety and had just released his fourth solo album, Family Style, recorded with his brother Jimmie.

That night on August 26, Stevie performed at the Alpine Valley Music Theatre as the opening act for Eric Clapton, alongside Robert Cray. It was a historic night: three guitar giants on the same stage. SRV stole the show with his Stratocaster and his boundless energy, performing classics like “Texas Flood,” “Pride and Joy,” and an unforgettable guitar duel with Clapton.

After the concert, around 1 a.m. Vaughan and several members of Clapton’s crew decided to take a helicopter back to Chicago instead of riding the bus. There was thick fog and very low visibility.

Four Bell 206 Jet Ranger helicopters were available. Three took off without incident; the fourth, carrying SRV, took off at a higher speed and lower altitude.

The pilot, Jeff Brown, veered sharply to the left, and just minutes after takeoff, the helicopter crashed into the side of a ski slope about 300 feet high, less than a mile from the departure point.

All occupants were killed instantly: Stevie Ray Vaughan (35), pilot Jeff Brown, and the three crew members. There was no explosion or major fire; the impact was devastating. No one knew about the accident until the helicopter arrived in Chicago and the search began at dawn.

The official cause was pilot error due to poor visibility and the decision to fly in unsuitable weather conditions. SRV had overcome his personal demons and was in an excellent creative and personal place.

His death shocked the rock and blues world. Eric Clapton, who was a close friend, was devastated. Thousands of fans attended his funeral in Texas, where Buddy Guy, Jimmie Vaughan, and others performed.

Stevie Ray Vaughan left an immense legacy: he revived the blues for an entire generation, influenced thousands of guitarists, and proved that it was possible to play with soul, feeling, and brutal technique all at the same time. His posthumous album *The Sky Is Crying* (1991) became a hit and won a Grammy.

“Seven Nation Army” is one of the most iconic rock songs of the 21st century, created by The White Stripes.

It all began in January 2002 during a tour of Australia. During the soundcheck at the Corner Hotel in Melbourne, Jack White played a powerful, simple riff on his semi-acoustic guitar. He memorized it but didn’t think much of it at first. In fact, he played it for an executive at his record label, who told him he could do better. Jack considered saving it for a potential James Bond theme song, but realizing that was unlikely, he decided to use it for The White Stripes.

The title “Seven Nation Army” comes from Jack’s childhood: as a kid in Detroit, he misheard the name “The Salvation Army” and called it “Seven Nation Army.” At first, it was just a working title to remember the riff, but it ended up sticking.

The lyrics deal with gossip, rumors, and the pressure of fame. Jack said the song came from his frustration at seeing his friends in Detroit badmouthing each other. It tells the story of someone who arrives in a town and hears everyone gossiping about him behind his back. He feels so bad that he leaves, but loneliness brings him back. It is, in part, a reflection on the band’s life at that time: their growing success, media attention, and rumors about their relationship (Jack and Meg White were already divorced, but they continued to pretend to be siblings).

They recorded it in 2002 at Toe Rag Studios in London for the album Elephant (2003). It’s a minimalist track: almost everything is based on that legendary riff, with no bass (Jack used an octave pedal to make it sound like one), no traditional chorus (it was an experiment by Jack: “I’m going to make a song without a chorus to see if it works”), and Meg’s raw drumming. It was released as a single in February 2003 and became their biggest hit. It won a Grammy for Best Rock Song.

The most surprising thing is its cultural legacy. That riff became a universal anthem: it’s sung in soccer stadiums (it started in Belgium with Club Brugge and spread around the world), at protests, sporting events, and even at weddings. It’s one of those songs that everyone instantly recognizes from just the first few notes.

One of the funniest and most endearing stories involving Lemmy Kilmister (Motörhead) and Metallica took place backstage at the Sommet Center in Nashville, Tennessee, on September 14, 2009, during Metallica’s World Magnetic Tour.

Metallica was in the middle of a relaxed jam session in the dressing room. James Hetfield, Kirk Hammett, Robert Trujillo, Lars Ulrich, and a few other friends (including Matt Sorum of Guns N’ Roses) were playing some casual jams. Suddenly, Lemmy walked into the room. Robert Trujillo began clapping excitedly, and Lemmy, in his characteristic raspy voice,

James Hetfield greeted him with a respectful smile: “Hello, sir.” Lemmy sat down, tuned his bass, and, without further ado, the entire group launched into two Motörhead classics from 1979: first “Damage Case” and then “Too Late Too Late.” Lemmy and Hetfield took turns on vocals, with Lemmy on bass and singing with all his raw energy, while Metallica backed him up with groove and enthusiasm.

At the end of the second song, James Hetfield joked, “Are we hired?” Lemmy replied with a laugh, “Yeah, I guess so… but you’ve got to get rid of that drummer.” Lars Ulrich, keeping his sense of humor, answered instantly, “I’ve been trying to get out of here for 25 years!” Everyone burst out laughing.

That casual backstage moment was captured on video and shows the genuine chemistry between them: Metallica always viewed Lemmy as an idol and mentor. Lars Ulrich has often recounted that as a teenager he was president of the Motörhead fan club on the West Coast (along with Cliff Burton) and that he tried to keep up with Lemmy’s drinking pace… only to end up throwing up. That mutual admiration led to several on-stage collaborations, but the 2009 backstage jam is particularly warm and spontaneous.

It was a meeting of legends that epitomized the respect and friendship between Motörhead’s wildest rock and Metallica’s thrash. A slice of pure, unfiltered heavy metal history.

Usted vive en un planeta donde los árboles se avisan del peligro
a través de raíces que se tocan bajo la tierra.

Donde los pulpos sueñan en colores.

Donde los elefantes vuelven a los huesos de sus muertos y se quedan allí en silencio, como recordando.

Donde las abejas bailan para decirse adónde volar.

Donde las flores florecen después del fuego, como si el renacer fuera su manera de hablar.

Donde los cuervos recuerdan los rostros crueles y enseñan a sus hijos a reconocerlos.

Donde las hormigas hacen ciudades con túneles y puentes invisibles al ojo apurado.

Donde los gatos ronronean con una frecuencia que puede ayudar a sanar huesos.

Donde las ballenas cantan canciones que cruzan los océanos y cambian un poco en cada encuentro.

Donde las ardillas adoptan crías huérfanas y las cuidan como propias.

Donde los delfines se llaman entre sí por su nombre, y los caballos reconocen el sonido de una voz amiga.

Donde las mariposas recuerdan rutas de migración que sus antepasados siguieron muchos veranos atrás.

Donde los hongos crean redes infinitas bajo la tierra, ayudando a los bosques a respirar unidos.

Donde los lobos cuidan a sus mayores y cantan juntos a la luna.

Donde las luciérnagas vuelven a encender la noche para que los grillos tengan algo que cantar.

Donde los peces se agrupan para protegerse, moviéndose como si fueran un solo cuerpo.

Donde las tortugas regresan año tras año al mismo lugar donde nacieron.

Donde los árboles viejos guardan en sus anillos la historia del clima, del tiempo y del hombre.

Donde la vida, incluso en silencio, se acuerda del beso de la luz.

Usted vive ahí.
En un mundo que siente,
que cuida,
que recuerda.

Feliz día :)
