Jimmy Page - Jeff Beck - Eric Clapton - Stairway to Heaven


Stairway To Heaven

Led Zeppelin


Stairway To Heaven

There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven
When she gets there she knows if the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for



And she's buying a stairway to heaven



There's a sign on the wall, but she wants to be sure
'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings
In a tree by the brook there's a songbird who sings
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven



Oh, it makes me wonder
Oh, it makes me wonder



There's a feeling I get when I look to the west
And my spirit is crying for leaving
In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees
And the voices of those who stand looking



Oh, it makes me wonder
Oh, really makes me wonder



And it's whispered that soon, if we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason
And a new day will dawn for those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter



If there's a bustle in your hedgerow, don't be alarmed now
It's just a spring clean for the may queen
Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on



And it makes me wonder



Your head is humming and it won't go
In case you don't know, the piper's calling you to join him
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow
And did you know your stairway lies on the whispering wind



And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul, there walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How everything still turns to gold and if you listen very hard



The tune will come to you at last
When all are one and one is all, yeah
To be a rock and not to roll
And she's buying a stairway to heaven

While My Guitar Gently Weeps - Paul McCartney and Eric Clapton


While My Guitar Gently Weeps

I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
I look at the floor and I see it needs sweeping
Still my guitar gently weeps


I don't know why nobody told you
How to unfold your love
I don't know how someone controlled you
They bought and sold you


I look at the world and I notice it's turning
While my guitar gently weeps
With every mistake we must surely be learning
Still my guitar gently weeps


I don't know how you were diverted
You were perverted too
I don't know how you were inverted
No one alerted you


I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
I look at you all
Still my guitar gently weeps


(I look from the wings at the play you are staging
While my guitar gently weeps
As I'm sitting here doing nothing but aging
Still my guitar gently weeps)

Eric Clapton - Beware Of Darkness


Beware Of Darkness

Beware Of Darkness

Watch out now, take careCuidado agora, tome cuidado
Beware of falling swingersCuidado com os swingers caindo
Dropping all around youCaindo ao seu redor
The pain that often minglesA dor que muitas vezes se mistura
In your fingertipsNa ponta dos dedos
Beware of darknessCuidado com as trevas
Watch out now, take careCuidado agora, tome cuidado
Beware of the thoughts that lingerCuidado com os pensamentos que persistem
Winding up inside your headLiquidação dentro da sua cabeça
The hopelessness around youA desesperança em torno de você
In the dead of nightNa calada da noite
Beware of sadnessCuidado com a tristeza
It can hit youEle pode bater em você
It can hurt youEla pode te machucar
Make you sore and what is moreTorná-lo ferido e que é mais
That is not what you are here forQue não é o que você está aqui para
Watch out now, take careCuidado agora, tome cuidado
Beware of soft shoe shufflersCuidado com os shufflers sapato macio
Dancing down the sidewalksDançando pelas calçadas
As each unconscious suffererÀ medida que cada doente inconsciente
Wanders aimlesslyVagueia sem rumo
Beware of MayaCuidado com Maya
Watch out now, take careCuidado agora, tome cuidado
Beware of greedy leadersCuidado com os líderes gananciosos
They take you where you should not goEles levam para onde você não deve ir
While Weeping Atlas CedarsEnquanto Weeping Atlas Cedars
They just want to grow, grow and growEles só querem crescer, crescer e crescer
Beware of darknessCuidado com as trevas

Blues

Fotografia Leonora Fink




















































Nobody can tell you how the BLUES feel unless they have the blues.
We all take it differently.
..........................
​...........Otis Rush 


It was stumbling on to really the bible of the blues, you know, and a very powerful drug to be introduced to us and I absorbed it totally, and it changed my complete outlook on music.
..........................​.............Eric Clapton





Like you and your woman ain't gettin' along and you're in love.
You can't sleep at nights. Your mind is on her - on whatever.
You know, that's the blues.
You can't hug that money at night.
You can't kiss it.
..........................​.................John Lee Hooker





I've said that playing the blues is like having to be black twice.
Stevie Ray Vaughan missed on both counts, but I never noticed.
..........................​................B. B. King





Saturday night is your big night.
Everybody used to fry up fish and have one hell of a time.
Find me playing till sunrise for 50 cents and a sandwich.
And be glad of it.
And they really liked the low-down blues.
..........................​........Muddy Waters





At every crossroads on the path that leads to the future, tradition has placed 10,000 men to guard the past.
..........................​...Maurice Maeterlinck





I been in the blues all my life.
I'm still delivering 'cause I got a long memory.
..........................​...............Muddy Waters





Blues is easy to play, but hard to feel.
..........................​.............Jimi Hendrix





A guy will promise you the world and give you nothin', and that's the blues.
..........................​..............Otis Rush

Across The Universe - Something

Something



Something in the way she moves
Attracts me like no other lover
Something in the way she woos me


I don't want to leave her now
You know I believe and how

Somewhere in her smile she knows
That I don't need no other lover
Something in her style that shows me

I don't want to leave her now
You know I believe and how

You're asking me will my love grow
I don't know, I don't know
You stick around now it may show
I don't know, I don't know

Something in the way she knows
And all I have to do is think of her
Something in the things she shows me

I don't want to leave her now
You know I believe and how

Eric Clapton e John Mayer - Broken Hearted

Broken Hearted

Eric Clapton

When the wind blows down this hard,
Many a bond is broken.
See the water lie on the ground
From where the heavens opened.
Lord, how will you get through this night
With your dreams departed?
And who alone will comfort you?
Only the broken hearted.
So you’ve gone beyond your means,
Every wound is open,
Your best laid plans are out of reach,
And all your fears unspoken.
Chorus
Sweet revenge is spoken then;
In the twilight it is gone.
To living lies with no escape,
Lord, I would rather be alone.
I press my fingers to the wood
To tell you of my dreaming,
To sing you songs from olden times,
To keep the love light gleaming.
’cause there’s a place where we can go,
Where we will not be parted.
And who alone will enter there?
Only the broken hearted.
Only the broken, broken hearted.
Only the broken, broken hearted.
Only the broken, broken hearted.
Only the broken, broken hearted.

The Who with Eric Clapton - Eyesight to the blind

Eyesight To The Blind

The Hawker


You talk about your woman
I wish you could see mine,
You talk about your woman
I wish you could see mine,
Every time she starts to lovin'
She brings eyesight to the blind.


You know her daddy gave her magic
I can tell by the way she walks.
You know her daddy gave her magic
I can tell by the way she walks.
Everytime we start shakin'
The dumb begin to talk.


She's got the power to heal you never fear
She's got the power to heal you never fear
Just a word from her lips
And the deaf begin to hear.
