An em pee three of the original You Know, You Know FROM this album An em pee three of the string quartet version FROM this cd On Halloween when I was fourteen I TP'ed Roger's yard. I lived on a short road in the country. A handful of boys lived on the road; I was the oldest. We didn't have a lot of options for adding tricks to the treats because most of the houses on [...]

Carter has new glasses! Jake was surprised! There is more Zawinul music that I have not heard! There was a Midnight Jam cd that may not have been released in this country - at least I can't find it. It has this version of the D Flat Waltz, one of my favorite tunes - lots of builds, releases, surprises, and funk. The original recording from the Weather Report Domino Theory album had brilliant playing (especially [...]

I just helped my mom close up her house and move to Memphis. We had a farewell lunch with her posse a couple of days before the movers came. A Remark You Made em pee three A Zawinul classic last done on this cd Hard to believe there will be no more new music from him. But everything changes. Technorati Tags:

I like this record a lot; here is a cut - Banana Ba Rustenburg mp3 . Swing music recycled back through Africa in the 50's and 60's. A Joe Zawinul sort of stew of influences. I hate it that he is gone. Technorati Tags:

name that tune mp3 I have been taking a little heat about not posting. But. I am still perplexed about how to post music here that does not wind up cataloged in various mp3 aggregator sites that use files from mp3 blogs to create what appears to be free music host sites. Sites that generate ad money. So this post is another experiment. And if you guess the tune you'll win a prize. Probably not much of a prize. I'll tell you what I am looking forward to. [...]
Aug 11 - Art and Invention Gallery I first became aware of Horace Silver years ago when I looked to see who wrote Song for My Father on a Sugarcane Harris album - I loved the song, loved it played on violin - but that wasn't representative of his work. He has written a lot of great tunes. Cookin at the Continental mp3 Technorati Tags:

A great Sonny Rollins tune Played by Keith Jarrett Oleo mp3 From CNN: White House spokesman Tony Snow said Friday that Gonzales "has testified truthfully and tried to be very accurate" when discussing a controversial surveillance program. No he hasn't. He is lying when necessary, sliding around the truth without leaving evidence of perjury when possible, but he is always [...]

Probably why I haven't been posting - hot, sleepy, lazy Al Green singing Take Me to the River mp3 Technorati Tags:

Skip James Washington DC Hospital Center Blues mp3 The Patient has great health insurance, a bunch competent doctors, and a pleasant suburban hospital with private rooms just down the street. The Patient's identified ailments are treatable, although there are several of them. The patient's veins became harder and harder to tap as the major treatments required bloodwork multiple times a day. Then, inexplicably, one of the Patient's doctors ordered a battery of blood tests that seemed to be typical for [...]

Clifton Chenier from I'm Here : I'm Here mp3 This is the season for driving with the windows down, and Zydeco is one of the 3 types of music optimal for driving with the windows down - along with (2) 40's and 50's C&W (like maybe Hanks Williams or Snow) and (3) Led Zeppelin. The photo is the second large overturned truck I have seen on Nashville Pike near the new construction of Vietnam Veterans [...]
From Guitar on the Go , Wes Montgomery: Fried Pies mp3 I love fried pies. My grandmother would make them from pie crust dough with plums from her yard or apples in the middle and fry them in a skillet. That was the only way I would eat plums. She would serve them hot with butter and Bob White Fancy Table Syrup on top. Years later, in the days that I travelled the [...]

Jackie-Ing MP3 from the monk tribute album - 3 sides down, one to go cut lead by Mark Bingham Technorati Tags:

more monk music this is shockabilly Criss Cross mp3 Our soldiers did not choose to start this war. Funding it is not following their wishes. If a madman president chooses to continue to escalate his war without available funding, is that a surprise? He has put thousands of people in harms way without proper consideration and preparation. There are pretty good reasons to choose not to impeach him - [...]

Should I ever have need of a theme song, this would be it. Thelonious Monk song named for Bud Powell . Performed by Terry Adams ( NRBQ ) and Friends In Walked Bud mp3 Technorati Tags:
