don't think we have a category for other music vids, in general, other than the"Greatest You Tube" one
This caught my eye.. interview with Jack Bruce early 60's I like his views on the various academic music colleges - I don't know about elsewhere in the world but over here the Colleges are very elitist in general, and do not have an atmosphere of encouraging individuality which is a really strange thing imo for an art subject. Maybe I'm wrong - maybe they've changed but I remember my daughter who is a very good pianist going for an audition to the Royal Scottish Academy and nothing asked or mentioned about her composing which she does naturally.
However ouside the auditions there was various parents pouring over their children who were practising the scales on the pianos, tapping their hands if they made a mistake. Maybe that's a harsh comparison and I'm not saying that those children were less talented than my daughter or that they didn't write music either, it just struck me then that the old argument about rigid formal music training "dulling" the natural talent maybe still applies.

Anyone remember this one from the television show Monkey?
Great song.
[deleted by youtube] Lyrics:
A long time ago when men were all babes There was a land of the free Fantasy and dreams Were its untouched wealth And goodness and love were real Each man desires to reach Gandhara His very own utopia In the striving, in the seeking soul Man can see Gandhara
In Gandhara, Gandhara They say it was in India Gandhara, Gandhara The place of light Gandhara
Though long ago and far Beyond the winding road Always beyond every bend A beautiful land still waits for the few Who make it to the very end Each man desires to reach Gandhara His very own utopia In the striving, in the seeking soul Man can see Gandhara
In Gandhara, Gandhara They say it was in India Gandhara, Gandhara The place of light Gandhara
Gandhara, Gandhara They say it was in India Gandhara, Gandhara The place of light Gandhara
