Raindrops keep falling on my head

B.J. Thomas sung the Billboard No. 1 theme music in movie Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid,

這次要介紹的是1969年由比傑湯瑪斯(B. J. Thomas)演唱的Billboard冠軍金曲兼電影「虎豹小霸王」（）主題曲"Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head"

Raindrops keep falling on my head雨點不斷打在我頭上
And just like the guy whose feet are too big for his bed就像腳太長而床太短的男人
Nothing seems to fit什麼都不對勁
Those raindrops are falling on my head雨點不斷打在我頭上
They keep falling不斷下著

So I just did me some talking to the sun於是，我開始對太陽說話
And I said I didn't like the way he got things done我說，我不喜歡它所安排的事
Sleeping on the job在工作時間睡覺
Those raindrops are falling on my head雨點不斷打在我頭上
They keep falling不斷下著

But there's one thing I know但我知道一件事
The blues they send to meet me won't defeat me它們捎來的憂鬱並未將我打敗
It won't be long till happiness steps up to greet me很快的，快樂前來向我問候

Raindrops keep falling on my head雨點不斷打在我頭上
But that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turning red但那不代表說我的雙眼很快就會變紅
Crying's not for me哭泣與我無關
Cause I'm never gonna stop the rain by complaining我不會以抱怨來讓雨停止
Because I'm free因為我自由自在
Nothing's worrying me沒有什麼事困擾著我

CBS Sony record printed in 1974.

My favourite music is Moon River, Live of Life, Charade, Windmill of your mind...

The Glory of Cremona

 

This is a chance for you to listen to those most 15 pieces of value bale and rare Italian artistically masterpiece... from Gasparo da Salo C.1570-80 to nearer Joseph Guarneri Del Gesu C 1744. Played by Ruggiero Ricci.

I do not think that there will be another LP like this again on Earth as the estimated value of this violin is like in the range of US$60,000,000.00!

Who can afford to arrange another gathering of these Violins and make a record again!?

And Who dare to play these pieces of instrument and who will be the one to insure the loss or damages if any!??

I bought this LP ten years ago with HKD$450. Now it is just about HKD$1,600. Still too cheap to own such a ticket to listen to these masterpieces made b the best master smith of the entire human civilization…

Music of the greatest composers ever, Vivaldi, Paganni, Hendel, Mozart, Tchaikovsky, Schumann, Brahms, Mendelssohn, Nardini…etc   Printed in UK my MCA, quality is unquestionable…

But your system should be going in par with the standard they requires to re-produce the music…

Mine is far beyond… as I am always a poor snob!

Anita Mui, My dream lover

This is one of the CD with Anita Mui's Autograph, I am her listener, and I told myself she would be the greatest star when she started her very first singing back in 1989.
She passed us away partly because of the paparazzi who tracked her for news of her cancers. Sad!
Now the star is gone, but I still keep her music album including LP and CD.
This CD belongs to Fei Fei (Shum Din Har) who was given by Anita Mui…

A Relaxing Music Course in a lazy Afternoon

After a tiresome trip, the best is lying down on a sofa, switch on the WB300B amplifier, pick up some of my music!, this is an additional bonus as my daughter prepared some home made green tea blended with honey as fascial mask and put it on my face, cozy and comfortable, and she massaged my foot... oh man! what else!?

This is a superb recording for Chie Ayado's Jazz album, do not miss it as it has a balanced muscial perfomence from bass to high. if your power amplifer is stingy in delivering current into the loudspeaker, there you can not have the realistic jazz effect! Try to find it, it may be still on sales in HK.
