So many of today's greats aren't on major platforms so they take to the street to serenade the public and make a few dollars.
As i'm sure you all know I have great respect and love for music. I spend most of my days and nights listening to music. It is more than therapeutic for me. It not only helps me sleep, but also helps me relive memories that have faded in the time that has gone by.
Music has the ability to take you back to special moments or moments that have caused some significant damage depending on your relation to it.
But...
This video not only captured a man who has such an amazing voice, but his way of playing his guitar is quite captivating. He is joined by a stranger who also admires this young man's smooth and nonchalant manner. Then the two are joined by another stranger whose love for music prevented him from going on about his way.
It was full of harmony and soul. It was a beautiful session caught on camera between strangers. A great song recorded in a matter of minutes with no rehearsal or practice. Just life as rolling stone musician. What was even more precious to me was the fact that the time they spent making a beautiful piece together, everyone was united. Nothing mattered but the sound being orchestrated.
If only for a few minutes, people were united and enjoying the company of one another. A beautiful precious moment.
I hope you all enjoy. There are two links. The first is the original freestyle jam session that got them all a spot on Jimmy Kimmel's show not long after. One thing that caught my eye was Kimmel taking out a single dollar. I am not sure if he was going to give it to the guitar player. Unfortunately the clip cuts out, but I very much hope he opted out of what he may have thought would have been a kind gesture.
