Kudos, paligap. Once again, you exhibit superb taste. I saw this thread several days ago and didn't have the chance to post on it, but I wanted to recognize. Sylvian is an extraordinary artist and I love his work with Sakamoto. Another Sylvian/Sakamoto gem is 'Taking Islands From Africa' (which I couldn't find a clip for on You Tube) from Sylvian's days in Japan. Nice thread. | |

OMG ~ my dream thread. I LOVE you paligap. Although I'll have to wait until I get to work as I only have dial up, but I've seen some of these before. Just brilliant. Have you heard the new installment piece David Sylvian released a few months ago? I have to look it up but it is very interesting. I also just received a beautiful ledger type book and cd ~ David Sylvian/2007 ~ The World Is Everything Tour ~ but haven't had time to properly delve into it. Thank you!!!! He is at the top of my favourite list and when he works with Ryuchi Sakamoto the magic they create is exquisite. Music is the language of the spirit. It opens the secret of life bringing peace, abolishing strife. --Kahlil Gibran | |
