normally finding music titles on youtube is fairly easy. also usign a google search for lyrics. BUT finding classical stuff is insalely difficult. tracking down some beethoven for tiems when i cannot get out of bed. just to relax. but searching for songs is easy. type a few words, and the word lyrics. and usualyl you get it. but searchign for music without words is not doable this way lol. sorry had to vent lol. pices i was looking for were moonlight sonata movts 1 and 3. and brandenburg concerto number 3 allegro moderato. found them finally. then off to torent land lol

i know its jsut having to listen thru parts of each one to find the one i search for. instead of typing a few words and readin results. of course that does open the door to expanding my portfolio of classical stuff too. so i guess all is good :)
Everyone gives kudos to the decomposing composers while ignoring the modern day geniuses like
Hans Zimmer
John Williams
Max Steiner
Elmer Bernstein
Jerry Goldsmith
and you get the idea.
Williams and Zimmer are quite prolific. just cause they write stuff for a movie doesn't mean they are any less talented.

Anyone who can write the three of the most well known theme songs in history is ok in my book.
Star Wars
Superman
Indiana Jones
Does it get any better?

I got some seriously old and eclectic tapes. I have been writing down what the words are but for the life of me I have heard none of it ever in the past and I cannot find it anywhere either. It is a good recording, very good in fact and probably not a live recording, it also isn't a recording off an LP (no crackling at all) but what was the source and how to find out, I have words of the songs but searching for it dont turn up much.
Going through the mid west last year I picked up a few tapes that were well cataloged (like montana slim or arlo guthrie) but sadly these I got now are out of the blue.
Cool.
