9 Years Ago

Before And After - The Musical ;o)

Now for something completely different... performance ART

Friend sent me a video of 2 cellists playing their version of an AC/DC song... So the challenge is to post a before and after video.. the before being the original version of a song the after being a very creative interpretation of that song....

I'll start..

AC/DC - Thunderstruck
Before - AC/DC ( you can just listen to some parts to get an idea of the original ;O)



After - 2 cellists

What a great idea, Bob.

While I liked both versions I liked the cellists a bit more. :-)))

This song, known by many as the “Fiddle Player's National Anthem” is very close to my heart in that my great uncle---Ervin T Rouse wrote it.

This first version is a traditional rendition of the song. The second? Well---like the cellists did above----this group changed the instrumentation a bit drastically.

Here's the before version.



Here is the after version.

Here is another. Everyone recognizes the theme from The Good The Bad and The Ugly. Right?



Here are my favorite ukelele players covering the song.
