Saturday Night

The music in my head I bore, long after it was heard no more- Wordsworth

Missed the Saturday dance
Heard they crowded the floor
It's so different without you
Don't get around much anymore


Always loved this tune, Duke's rendition is wonderful

At the end of a long day

At the end of a long, difficult or stressful day, a little Tom Waits "Nighthawks at the Diner" helps me to relax

The Possibility

"When we consider absolute reality, there is no end, no beginning;emptiness is the same as fullness, just seen from a different perspective. We say that this coffee cup is empty;but empty means filled with space, filled with possiblities, ready for anything:milk, water, tea, wine. Every moment of time, every point in space, is completely open for what wants to come. That is why it can be filled" -- Fa-Tsang

Oh the possibilities of the day!

Gato Barbieri " Earths Cry, Heavens Smile". It is magnificent!

Out of the Rain

Looks like we might actually get those T-storms they have been forecasting. Good day to relax and enjoy Etta James "Out of the Rain"

Blue Monday

Music
Music when soft voices die,
Vibrates in the memory
Odours, when sweet violets sicken
Live within the sense they quicken,
Rose leaves when the rose is dead,
Are heaped for the beloved's bed.
And so the thoughts when thou art gone,
Love itself shall slumber on.
-Percy Bysshe Shelley

Monday, listen to Luther Allison's "Living in the House of Blues". A great tune by a great (and sadly missed) artist

Easy like a Sunday morning

Sunday has always seemed like the perfect day to spend time with some of my favourite jazz artists.
