8.0Echoes - Barefoot To The Moon - An Acoustic Tribute To Pink Floyd(en)
Can you walk barefoot to the dark side of the moon? Echoes prove it with their acoustic show “Barefoot To The Moon”. The band, led by exceptional guitarist and singer Oliver Hartmann (Rock Meets Classic, Avantasia), is supported by a string quartet from the Bohemian Symphony Orchestra in Prague. The complex songs of the British rock giants are carefully stripped down and reduced to their essential structures with spartan, sometimes unusual instrumentation. The unique magic of this music is by no means lost, on the contrary. Familiar sounds change color and previously hidden nuances emerge. In its quasi “naked” state, a fascinating fragile beauty is revealed that has never been heard before. In short: Echoes expose the essence of Pink Floyd. Recorded at Stadttheater Aschaffenburg/Germany in December 2014

With their successful live DVD/CD "Barefoot To The Moon" (No. #20 at the Media Control Charts Germany 2015), recorded and arranged with pure acoustic instruments and supported by a four-piece string ensemble from Prague, the band has impressively shown that the original's great heritage can be interpreted in an interesting, inspiring and absolutely creative way. Now in early 2019, the group will release their successor and electrical continuation entitled 'Live From The Dark Side (A Tribute To Pink Floyd)", recorded live at 'Rock Of Ages Festival 2018' in Rottenburg-Seebronn, Germany.

10.0Séfar, A City of Mysteries(fr)
Séfar (in Arabic: سيفار) is an ancient city in the heart of the Tassili n'Ajjer mountain range in Algeria, more than 2,400 km south of Algiers and very close to the Libyan border. Séfar is the largest troglodyte city in the world, with several thousand fossilized houses. Very few travelers go there given its geographical remoteness and especially because of the difficulties of access to the site. The site is full of several paintings, some of which date back more than 12,000 years, mostly depicting animals and scenes of hunting or daily life which testify that this hostile place has not always been an inhabited desert. Local superstition suggests that the site is inhabited by djins, no doubt in connection with the strange paintings found on the site.
Guys Like Us(en)
Jim Plunkett never backed down from adversity. Despite being a major high school recruit, Plunkett’s freshman year at Stanford was a letdown, and his coach tried to replace him at quarterback. He refused to be taken out and eventually became a standout at Stanford, winning the Rose Bowl and Heisman his senior year. The start to his pro career was not very different from his turn in college, starting off slow, being traded to several teams, and eventually landing a backup position with the Raiders. It was only when the starting quarterback got injured that Plunkett was thrust into the role, and ended up leading the Raiders to two Super Bowl victories.
