Thought I would start a thread devoted to some of our favorite musicians. Feel free to add your favorite cuts from the 'Artist of the Week'. I find that Billy Joel has long been a fav of mine. So I shall start out with this clip...... River of Dreams....... "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster ID: 929532 ·

I've tried and tested it... there's no malware or spyware of any kind. This guy, Jason Stallings, did a swell job with this app, which searches for all kinds of download links using Google without going through the very large number of alternative search terms. It's user friendly and easy to use. http://www.softpedia.com/get/Internet/Other-Internet-Related/Google-Hacks.shtml Enjoy!!! :]] Beets ID: 929684 ·

The idea of the thread is to honor the 'artist of the week' by posting cuts by them........ Not to post cuts by others. If you wish to nominate other artists for future consideration, please do so by PM to me......... Otherwise, please limit your contributions to the current 'artist of the week'........that's the idea of the thread...and Mark Knopfler is my choice for this week. I welcome your thoughts about his best musical contributions. BorderReiver.. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster ID: 930848 ·

If you've never seen the movie, it is worth looking for - funny, touching, and sad (at the very end). Burt Lancaster is a riot as the corporate bigwig.
