Seal (a.k.a. Henry Olusegun Olumide Adeola Samuel) came onto the music scene in the 1980's. His first breakout album was released in 1991 and simply titled "Seal." Since then he's sold over 28 million records world wide. Tonight we offer many of his lesser known acoustic, live and soulful tracks. Some are rare versions of his most beloved songs. Others are artful covers of standard soul songs. Feel free to download copies of this podcast from WCRS or my personal website (www.BigBarkingDog.com). SEAL - RARE, LIVE AND SOULFUL “Crazy” BREAK ONE “Prayer for the Dying” “Deep Water” “Show Me” “It’s a Man’s World” “Fast Changes” BREAK TWO “Life on Mars” “I’m Still in Love with You” “Back Stabbers” “Let’s Stay Together” “Kiss from a Rose”

Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Cannonball Adderly, Bill Evans and friends explore modal jazz in "Kind of Blue." This sublime composition from 1959 is widely recognized as one of the best selling, most respected Jazz albums of all time.

Arguably the best selling world music album of all time, "Buena Vista Social Club" reunites Cuba's most venerable musicians, many of whom were active in the 1930's, 40's and early 50's. This album was produced in 1996 in Cuba by Ry Cooder and inspired a film of the same name by Wim Wenders. I strongly encourage you to search Youtube for "Buena Vista Social Club." You'll discover a trove of excellent music videos. Download. Share. Repeat as needed.

This week we offer the soundtrack from the 1938 film entitled "Alexander Nevsky" directed by Sergei Eisenstein and scored by Sergei Prokofiev. This brilliant composition marries soaring choral with a deeply emotive orchestration. The film tells the story of a 13th Century invasion of Russia by the Teutonic Knights and their subsequent defeat by Prince Alexander Nevsky. In actual fact . . . coming immediately before WWII . . . it presages the Nazi Invasion of the Soviet Union and their subsequent rout.
