A golden oldie by the legendary Roy Orbison takes me back on a sentimental journey to my youth.

Its only recently that I discovered Emmylou Harris. Some of her latest songs are sung with such passion.

Rush — La Villa Strangiato
"La Villa Strangiato" was released on the 1978 album Hemispheres, and is subtitled "An Exercise in Self-Indulgence". The 9:37 song, the fourth and final track of the album, was Rush's first entirely instrumental piece. The multi-part piece was inspired by a dream guitarist Alex Lifeson had, and the music in these sections correspond to the occurrences in his dream. The opening segment was played on a nylon-string classical guitar. The next segment introduces the main theme of La Villa, the Strangiato theme. The song progresses to include an increasingly complex guitar solo backed by string synthesizer, followed closely by bass and drum fills. The Strangiato theme is then revisited before the song ends abruptly with phased bass and drums. The piece is divided as follows:
I: "Buenas Noches, Mein Froinds!" (0:00–0:26)
II: "To sleep, perchance To dream..." (0:27–1:59)
III: "Strangiato theme" (2:00–3:15)
IV: "A Lerxst in Wonderland" (3:16–5:48)
V: "Monsters!" (5:49–6:09)
VI: "The Ghost of the Aragon" (6:10–6:44)
VII: "Danforth and Pape" (6:45–7:25)
VIII: "The Waltz of the Shreves" (7:26–7:51)
IX: "Never turn your back on a Monster!" (7:52–8:02)
X: "Monsters! (Reprise)" (8:03–8:16)
XI: "Strangiato theme (Reprise)" (8:17–9:20)
XII: "A Farewell to Things" (9:20–9:37)
