Now that^ was a nice trio. 

"Tomorrow Forever" the latest from Matthew Sweet; anyone who's heard the stuff I do would be surprised, but I actually like good power pop...and Neil Young's latest vault find, "Hitchhiker"...

My brother recently turned me on to The BAD PLUS.
Incredible jazz trio!
The drummer, Dave King in particular is absolutely incredible.

Check them out.

Yes Indeed !!!!

The BAD PLUS are an outstanding outfit!!!

Here they are teamed up with with Kurt Rosenwinkel !!!

Tiny Town...Save it for a Rainy Day

Music is such a wonderful thing.

   

Thanks!

Music is truly a wonderful thing !!!!!!

My Dad was an orchestral musician at one point, and army band. He's a Beethoven fan so I grew up with more classical music around than anything else, but a lot less music than you'd think as he wasn't playing anymore ( no money in music, how things stay the same...) Ode To Joy has to be one of the most perfectly realized expressions in music; it truly is an ode to joy, and can prompt tears...

It is very sad that "there is no money in music"  !!!

Talent put on the shelf, many visions never realized !!

I remember the late Greg Lake's recollections of forming King Crimson,

He said, Ian McDonald came from a military brass band- until that time, Ian had never played in a rock band !!

Ian's immense talent & contribution to "In the Court of the Crimson King"   ,

well, realistically ,

what more could I say about that album that hasn't been said already !!!!!

Heading out to coach my high school cross country ski team...and it's -7 F at the moment.  Needed a 4 shot espresso coffee and Railroad Earth (Last of the Outlaws and Live at Red Roads) to get me going this morning.

Muriel Anderson, harp guitar; .

More Muriel, playing Mark Knopfler's .
