This first one has been on the blog earlier, but not everybody reads everything on here, except me, mostly, so it's worth putting on again... it's Yws Gwynedd and the lovely " Neb ar ol " .... mega- yn - byw hefyd !
Most of you will know what these " Simple Stuff" posts are about. You know how you might see someone on the box playing live, performing the song pretty much as it was the day it was written ... and you buy the record, and you find that the same song has been fiddled about with, horn sections added, guitar solos, plus loads of production and knob-twiddling ... and it's wrung all the life and beauty of of it. Well, on here I'm putting on the songs as they were originally, more or less, without all that nonsense, warts and all.... and all the better for it. I'm amazed. by the way, that the last "Simple Stuff" was way way back in May .. you can easily have a look by clicking on May2015 and scrolling along till you find it ... it included the legendary( ?) Flux Rugged ! Having just looked back at it, as usual, some of the captions have wandered around a bit and aren't in the right place .. I don't know why it does that. Maybe it's all to do with the laws of Entropy ! This first one has been on the blog earlier, but not everybody reads everything on here, except me, mostly, so it's worth putting on again... it's Yws Gwynedd and the lovely " Neb ar ol " .... mega- yn - byw hefyd ! Here's a fairly "simple" version of Lliwiau ... I know "electricity" is involved, but it's basically just a keyboard and a guitar and her ... pretty close to how the song got started I would reckon ... it's Lisa Jen/9bach by the way ... Now this one really is ( incredibly) Simple Stuff .. Twm Morys ... " Pethe" ... bendigedig ! The fantastic "Wendon" at Benllech ( Tyn-Y-Gongl) steals the show a little bit, but Maenir Gwilym is in there too with " Siglo dy Sail" ... That's rounded things off nicely.... I'll try to do the next one a bit sooner.
