Kayak - Merlin (live)

[@marcelv4208]

Ton en andere Kayak leden, bedankt voor zoveel luistergenot. Jammer dat ook deze tijd voorbij is. Kijjk en luister dit geweldige optreden nog vaak.

[@taynuilt1]

Fabulous! A classic rock line-up with the token shaven-headed bloke on bass, eye-candy doing her bit with tambourine, someones dad on drums and aging rocker on keys. But what a sound and what talent - these old campaigners could knock the current generation of Biebers into a cocked hat as writers AND performers. Attention all youngsters!! - Watch and learn

[@ronwijnands]

Someone's dad is Pim Koopman ...top producer ! Listen to The President or Diesel 😊

[@agungwibowo5349]

this is the best progresive rock band from holland, their composition and arrangement so melodius but still ok to hear, kayak its great

[@armandoacosta9529]

one of the Best songs of all times in the history of rock&roll and i have more than 50 years listening all kind of rock

[@progniuprogg9733]

Armando, I totally agree, you're someone who has the same feeling as me, Ton Scherpenzeel is a great musician and composer ...

[@Carrinthe]

This is an absolute masterpiece, second to none.

[@bobross850]

Stop drinking mate.

[@paulebernard9333]

One of my favorites is also "Ruthless Queen"! 👌

[@gregsmith9401]

Merlin was surreal back in the day guys. The prog rock bands in the 70s were everywhere but for some reason Tower Records always had these Kayak albums available. Merlin was a powerful song back then and it still is today.

[@jellereitsma9182]

Bedankt Kayak voor alle fijne muziek die jullie altijd voor ons maakten! Ook dit nummer laat de geweldige muzikale hoogten van Kayak horen/zien! Max, rust in vrede!! RIP.

[@michelhille8107]

Ton on keys great. Love him since Camel.

[@Glenn081977]

Voor mij is de mooiste sound in het hele kayak spectrum… ton op piano, edward op vocals combi. Met deze 2 ingredienten wordt alles al snel steengoed. Verder was dit natuurlijk een super setting zo met zn allen. How time flies…

[@trevizons]

This is what KAYAK is all about, great and perfect performances, full of emotion, feeling, complex and beautiful arrangements, personality in each and every member, professionalism, quality and sincere playing, originality, things that quite seldom you will see in new bands nowadays, I do miss Pim, but the new album follows perfectly well this stream of greatness !

[@mauricelamain1978]

true i agree and was blow in away from this performance

[@GrouRocks]

Been to Kayak two weeks ago and it was awesome! Together with Queen, Genesis, Yes and Pink Floyd one of the best bands ever! And I'm 18. Faith in youth restored?

[@olgazadig4961]

Now you're 28. Never lost faith in your generation❤️

[@GrouRocks]

@@olgazadig4961 Oh wow, someone read my comment after all those years! Yes, I'm 28 now and in the meantime I got into vinyl records - and ofcourse, I've got all the Kayak albums.

I love watching Pim playing the drums, what a technique, precision and arrangement. Wished I could have seen them live together R.I.P. my favourite drummer

[@romcallis]

Sad to hear Max has passed away…what a legend!

[@J450N17]

Pim was my grandfather :) R.I.P big man!

[@loremipsum5730]

Really? Awesome! :0 If he was my grandfather I would have borrowed him all day for drumming lessons xD

[@voscomics]

Pim's grandchilderen were born after his death...

[@vsbvideoproducties]

Ben bijna 50, Kayak was wel in the picture maar mijn hart lag meer in AC-DC en meer van dat soort bands. Ongeveer in 2000 ben ik de muziek van Kayak meer gaan waarderen en heb zelfs mijn Border Collie Kay genoemd. Vanaf dat moment heb ik Kayak niet meer losgelaten en is de muziek van Kayak voor mij meer dan muziek alleen en gelukkig is mijn vriendin ook helemaal Kayak fan geworden. Wij genieten van de muziek de lyrics en natuurlijk de optreden waar we regelmatig te vinden zijn.

[@petervanhilten2992]

Ton, je hebt zoveel mooie muziek gemaakt. Wat een feest!

[@luyyzalvarezborja6694]

Awesome Show. KAYAK, Iconic Band. The best of the best. I love this incredible Album.

[@TyCetto]

This is musicality at its peak!

[@hanswalter3873]

In one word......BRILLIANT

[@oliverroy19]

Prachtige stem van Edward Reekers!!❤️ En wat een geweldige compositie!

[@MrSmutnaMezatka]

This guy could sing back in the 80s, but now his voice got this deep value! :-)

[@hbaalen]

Destijds de voorstelling gezien:Waanzinnig!!! Zo'n concert dat direct vol binnen komt en je nooit meer vergeet.

[@fbookelmaniac]

Paradiso 2008. Nog steeds kippenvel. Mijn favoriet toen. Niniane solo van Ton. Never heard keyboard solo like this before

[@RobinB84]

Exciting music, very good players AND great melodies. The perfect combination that makes great music. Does it ever going to be any better than this??!!

[@GianlucaCagnaniJSBGLORY]

This is amazing! God bless these great musicians.

[@jrborghuis9178]

Finding the treasures that lay hidden in my lonely cave Holding the secrets which were born inside this crystal Grave I'm the seeker my mind's my tool Call me magician or fool There's a place in the hills Where I practice my skills Bard of the unseen, a prophet I'm Merlin My dreams are real I've seen it all in the stars I've heard it all in the wind There's a voice in the dark Making me answer the sign Only the gods choose the time For the voice in the dark Take a look at the falcon make sure that I'll follow Its trail Leading through the wild forest, you know he's in Search of the grail I'm Merlin I know how to cope When visions appear in my globe the sorcerer in the black robe I am Merlin Though my face is a mask yet I know what's my task I'll be guardian of Arthur, the regent, the future king The fire of wisdom reveals me everything The mirror flashed, a vision passed As I heard voices sing I'm always living alone An ancient cave is my home See the look in my eyes They think I'm a mysterious man Cause people do all they can To avoid evil eyes Making signs just to ward off enchantment but don't be Afraid If you're ever in need of me I'll surely come to your Aid I've been given the gift of the sight I'm Merlin the child of the light My power can strike people blind I am Merlin

[@fbookelmaniac]

Hun teksten pure poëzie. Ongekend in de popwereld.

[@harryjakobs]

heerlijk, wat een nummer !!!!! Elke keer (+1000x) weer genieten!!!

Unfaßbar gute Live-Band!! Es war ein einzigartiges Erlebnis..

[@magl6722]

Strangely enough, I heard this song and the whole album back in 1983 and I lived then in the USSR. Great band!

[@lubbertwestra7452]

[@fadhilarief1537]

So nice, good 🤟💫

[@GrouRocks]

the original version with Edward on vocals is from Merlin, 1980, and the whole first side of that album was revisited as Merlin - Bard of the Unseen in 2003 with Bert Heerink on vocals. Now Edward is back in the band but they still perform some songs from 'Bard' as well.

[@rafikyanborisov]

Genesis, KIng Crimson, Marillion...and I can put at the same row Kayak....YESSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow... Sure, they rock, they do that how it's supposed to be done, and they do that very very well! So yes, I was listening with more than pleasure. And then came 4:09... And they blew me away with only vocals. If you can do thát you can call yourself a musician!

kippenvel! Elke keer weer!

[@sansintierra]

@rafikyanborisov may I add, they did what other artists couldn't do successfully, with two incredible conceptual albums... this one is from "Merlin: the bard of the unseen", and what IMHO is their best album, "Nostradamus: the fate of man"

[@DaveEvans256]

Tsjonge wat is deze versie goed zeg!

[@arno-luyendijk4798]

Arghhhh....ik krijg weer kippenvel van de hoogste orde bij de eerste tonen van de zang. Het is sinds mijn spirituele reis in het paganisme een soort lijfnummer van me geworden.
