A BOULDER OF MUSIC

George Jones died.  He did not pass away.  Anyone who has ever been emotionally moved by carefully-crafted modern country pop music, should listen to his old-fashioned truthful albums.  His songs are shot from his heart into your ears, without dilution by producers, managers, marketeers, or public image ego.

George Jones lived a tortured self-destructive life, but instead of physically killing others or himself, he turned his love and pain into intimate art that he shared courageously with anyone who would listen.  His singing style was not manufactured to win screaming concert fans, or to sell 100 albums he recorded.....Everything in George Jones' songs - his traumatic voice, unequaled precise phrasing, brilliant succinct poetry lyrics - was straight from his soul.  It was not entertainment.  A life was at stake.

LITTLE SAIGON

PARIS BY NIGHT" has produced very professional live shows and 109 DVDs with almost every great Vietnamese singer and composer, for 30 years. They represent the history of Vietnamese music, some of the greatest, most moving in the world. Now they have been driven out, because fans steal the music free on YouTube......QUESTION: If you love a singer, should you steal their creativity, steal their spirit? Even great singers need to eat. They deserve to have their artistry, hard work, and vulnerable passion treated with respect by their fans.....Or else there will be no music, no films, no art. Fans lose, student artists lose, creativity and inspiration is killed, and culture becomes even more diluted, hopeless, meaningless....Nothing good is free in life.

Language isn't important. Listen with your heart to these great Vietnamese singers and composers:

Trinh Cong Son ~ Khanh Ly ~ Le Thu ~ Thai Chau ~ Elvis Phuong ~ Che Linh ~ Thai Thanh ~ Tuan Ngoc ~ Hoang Nam ~ Thanh Lan ~ Ngoc Son ~ Cam Van ~ Giao Linh ~ Jimmy Joseph ~ Dalena ~ Thanh Tuyen ~ Pham Duy ~ Hoang Lam ~ Ky Anh ~ Manh Dinh ~ Bao Yen ~ Tuan Vu ~ Don Ho ~ My Linh ~ Khanh Ha ~ Ngoc Lan ~ The Son ~ Duy Quang ~ Vu Khanh ~ Y Lan ~ Tran Tu Tien ~ and many others

MUSIC THAT TOUCHES THE HEART

Not all magnificent music is from America, Taiwan, or the Idol TV shows.... This is one of the songs that move my heart and spirit the most. Written by the master composer NGO THUY MIEN, and sung by the great Viet Nam singer, Tuấn Ngọc. Title: "Rieng Mot Troi" (Private Corner of Heaven)....Please give yourself a gift - experience it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XyUJuNek-rc
