Il buono, il brutto, il cattivo

I forgot how much I enjoyed The Good the Bad and the Ugly until I came across Bandini's Remix of Ennio Morricone's - L'Estesi Dell'Oro (The Ectasy of Gold) on hypem.com courtesy of popgoestheradio.
Originally released in Italy, it is a classic Clint Eastwood western directed by Sergio Leone and is the 3rd and final film in The Dollars Trilogy. If you haven't seen the movie don't watch the clip above because it is one of the final scenes. You might also recognize the song from a Nike commercial.

Malcolm Gladwell: Beatles...Prodigies or Not?

I came across this video when i was checking out a blog i like Fresh Creation. I have read Malcolm Gladwell's Book "Outliers: The Story of Sucess". He gives a fresh perspective on the way our culture works. In this video the best-selling author uses The Beatles as an example to question the existence of genuine musical prodigies. He attributes a large measure of the band's success to the experience they gained while playing as the house band for a strip club in Hamburg, Germany. Weather you think they are prodigies or not, they are no doubt one of the greatest bands of all time.
