A little ‘unseasonal’ travelin’ music to end a beautiful fall day
Asked to name their favorite jazz instrument, I’d guess that most people would say saxophone, piano and trumpet, probably in that order. Mine would be the standup bass — a solo walking bass line always brings a smile to my face — and one of the greatest jazz bass players of all time was the late Ray Brown, featured here.
He’s accompanied by pianist Gene Harris, another favorite, playing probably the most-tortured song in the jazz repertoire. Every hack who ever took more than five music lessons thinks he can play this song, and I bet that right this minute it is being butchered in dozens of karoake bars around the world.
These guys redeem it from musical cliche, and ’round about 5:35, they really kick it to a higher gear.

Son of a gun can “tickle the ivory” with the best. Excellent choice Jay. Jazz is quickly becoming a forgotten art form which I afraid that the generation now and in the future will miss. Too much trash out there. I am a rock and roll man myself but Jazz is Jazz and you gotta love it if you love music. It is all “kinfolk” so to speak.

As you watch Obozo cavort with his Iranian thug buddies, remember this-
Communism’s body count dwarfs that of fascism and Nazism. The latter was uniquely monstrous in its attempt to eradicate an entire people. But communism was unmatched in its endless slaughter. The Black Book of Communism, written by several European intellectuals — attacked for their effrontery in criticizing Joseph Stalin, Mao Zedong, and other well-meaning mass murderers — estimated the death toll at more than 100 million. And the killings continue in such communist hell-holes as North Korea.-AmSpec

I Report
Healthcare allows the government to control every aspect of our lives. They can pas anything, once they tie it to health. And needless to say, it will give the fascist in Congress almost unlimited power. It isn’t about health. It’s about total and complete control.
We saw the reaction when they used the excuse: we put money into GM, now we can control GM. The libs were more than happy that the government took over control of one of our biggest companies. Libs are all for the government taking control of everything.
They are pushing it through with a Saturday Night vote, not because it is healthcare, but because it is complete control of our country.
Healthcare won’t take effect until after Obama runs again for the White House so it’s effects won’t ruin his chances. If that doesn’t say it all, what does?

Today, Ranking Member of the House Ways and Means Committee Dave Camp (R-MI) released a letter from the non-partisan Joint Committee on Taxation (JCT) confirming that the failure to comply with the individual mandate to buy health insurance contained in the Pelosi health care bill (H.R. 3962, as amended) could land people in jail. The JCT letter makes clear that Americans who do not maintain “acceptable health insurance coverage” and who choose not to pay the bill’s new individual mandate tax (generally 2.5% of income), are subject to numerous civil and criminal penalties, including criminal fines of up to $250,000 and imprisonment of up to five years.

“was looking for something else and ran across this…amazing!”
josef–Up on the Atlantic City boardwalk in the 1990s, there used to be a woman who had no arms and no legs. She had a special hospital bed rigged up which she could “drive” using her mouth, and would trek from her home every day to the boardwalk where she would play a mouth harp for donations. I loved that lady–even with the meagerest of abilities, she made the most of her situation and kept her dignity by offering her donors something in return for their efforts.
On one of my yearly jaunts home circa 1997, I saw the lady driving her bed through the streets of AC and was glad to see her still making it. About 1 week after I got home, however, there was an AJC story announcing that this woman had been killed in a traffic accident while driving her bed through the streets. The article went on to explain that she had a daughter as well, and had made legal history in NJ when she successfully sued the state to retain the right to raise her daughter herself.
Anytime I start feeling sorry for myself, I try to remember this woman, someone who made a life for herself despite having almost nothing to work with.

In my mother’s house, there is an old metal desk. The kind that looks like a cabinet, but the front folds down for writing, like an incredibly ugly roll top, except the front lays down flat..
In one of the drawers, there is a cigar box. In that box are a couple of purple hearts and other things that were my Dad’s. When he died in 1973, he died in his sleep of complications from one of the wounds he received during the war. I was at my college’s bowl game that year. I didn’t know he had died until I got back to the hotel. He was not sick and it was a huge shock that he had died. If I could just talk to him now . . .
Whenever I hear When I Die, I always think of that cigar box. My Mom has always tried to give me that box, like she has given so many old pictures and other things from their lives. She’s 82, and while she is still healthy and sharp, we all know that she won’t be here forever. I’m going to call her tomorrow, Kamchak. Because of you. There’s some things that I want to tell her that I would have probably always put off. All good things that she needs to hear.

I’m sort of a purest when it comes to my favorite female voices. Diania Krall is my number three and if it weren’t for her unbelievable raw talent and piano playing ability, she might not be number three.
Number two is Aretha. She was once on one of the “Diva” shows with Whitney and Mariah Carry. Those two younger girls tried so hard but when Aretha opened her mouth, it was all over. She didn’t try at all. She just sang the song. That’s all she needed to do.
I know you will probably laugh at this, but in my book, this is the woman who had the richest, purest voice to ever record. Most of their music was Bubblegum and none of my favorites are on U-Tube, but this one ain’t bad.

Daniel Kaniewski, deputy director of the Homeland Security Policy Institute at George Washington University affirmed to WND in a telephone interview this morning that the Nidal Hasan listed as attending the meetings of the HSPI Presidential Transition Task Force was the same person as the alleged shooter in the Fort Hood massacre.

That’s a great song. Isn’t it amazing how you won’t hear a song for decades, but when it plays, you know every single word. That’s probably the most powerful brain stimulus that there is. I wonder if there has been research into music for brain disorders like Alzheimer’s?

@@,
Why don’t you try being honest. Try this on for size to start with, weirdo:
•Corsi on Islam: “a worthless, dangerous Satanic religion”
•Corsi on Catholicism: “Boy buggering in both Islam and Catholicism is okay with the Pope as long as it isn’t reported by the liberal press”
•Corsi on Muslims: “RAGHEADS are Boy-Bumpers as clearly as they are Women-Haters — it all goes together”

You are the one mis-leading regarding that story about Corsi. You even try to mis-lead regarding what I post. Weirdo.

NIF, My Mother has Alzheimer’s and I’m making a DVD of pictures of her past…growing up, school, the Depression, the war, meeting Dad, etc. and I’m putting in period music. It’s going to be our Christmas present to her. So I guess we agree on a couple of things…music can be a great healer, and Nat King Cole’s “Smile” is a great song. It’s in the DVD, too.
Thanks again…

People who use the name GOP=LOSERS are the real losers
I wonder where we got our ideas before FOX? I guess the Reagan Republicans just didn’t have any thoughts at all.
Here’s a clue: People who follow the party that controls every major media outlet but one, should be a little careful about claiming that they know where the opposition gets their ideas.
K? Did you follow that? If not, I’ll be glad to explain it further.

Thanks for the heartwarming story…gives you pause to think about our own petty little “problems,” doesn’t it?
Glad you appreciated the Rosenberg Trio. Here’s Jimmy when he was just a whipper-snapper…that whole family is amazing…first “got into” Romany music when I was a little boy listening to my Uncle Ralph play and pass the jug with Mister Doug, a Rom who had settled down in our hometown…my first “boyfriend” was my “Gypsy Prince,” who introduced me to Django Reinhardt’s music, Romany themes in classical compositions, and an appreciation for a little known and much misunderstood culture…

Corsi is an equal opportunity conspiracy theorist. He’s even written books supporting some of your own. I’m not into conspiracies.

WND’s Jerome Corsi Claims Fort Hood Shooter Advised Obama.
UPDATE{From above link}: I contacted Frank Cilluffo, the director of the HSPI at George Washington University, who tells me that Nidal Hasan has no affiliation with the HSPI or with George Washington University, at all. “[Hasan] has no role on the task force, other than the fact that he attended these meetings as an audience member, as did hundreds of others.” Hasan’s name appears on the list of participants only because he provided the HSPI with an RSVP, indicating his attendance. Cilluffo told me, “We always record RSVPs and publish them as a matter of transparency, and will continue to do so.”
Practice you reading comprehension, @@. It is lacking.

G’morning all,
First Finn, that is one helluva line – All hat, no cattle! I am surprised I never heard it before. Especially considering where I grew up. But I am damn shore Joe Bidening it!
And it is THE very definition of that colossal canard/Connecticut cowboy of recent yore…
Musical kudos to @@ for that wonderful Gabriel piece. A hidden gem if ever there was one.
And kam for The Living Years.
Nothing too heavy here, just a nice little Saturday morning ditty with a fabulous ending…

No problem. I’m making up a DVD to give my Mom’s remaining brothers and sisters this Christmas. I found a bunch of old 8mm films from the 50’s (I am seen doing my Elvis imitation when I was about 5) that my uncle shot at all the Christmas Parties and family gatherings. Really cool stuff. There’s a shot of a TV set with Elvis on the Ed Sullivan show. Dad was in some of the shots. Damn, I wish I had gotten my looks from his side of the family. Tall, slender, blond hair, blue eyes. I take after my Mom’s side.
Sorry to hear about your Mom. That’s a fear that everyone has. Mom is terrified of it. She always complains that she can’t remember like she used to. I just don’t have the heart to tell her that I can’t remember anything from the 60s and very little from the 70s, but that has nothing to do with age.

G’morning everybody,
Can’t stay long, gotta flight pulling in. Didn’t get to listen to any of the music last night. In-laws here for the weekend. I’ll try to get a listen in when I can.
Jay,
Thanks for the info upstairs. I really appreciate it.
See y’all later. Time to see if I can move someone’s round trip up to an exit this afternoon.

How much do you recall before the age of 5?
My first memories? The layout of my kindergarten classroom, a green plaid shirt on a boy named Mike.

I remember that song, but I do not remember that woman singing that low. She’s a baritone. And isn’t it weird that they left the drummer out?
Each and everyone of those guitars are now worth a fortune. The guy on the left has a Gibson ES-335. What I wouldn’t give. ( I don’t even play guitar)

I remember my Mom having to take mr out of a church service for misbehaving hen I was about 4 or 5. I think she would have been arrested nowadays for the beating I got.
I deserved it. and it never happened again.
Summertime has been redone about a million times. But depending on your age, probably not much in the last 20-30 years.

I saw the last part of the Iranian thing. I hope they run it again. I felt sorry for Carter. They really made him look like a fool. (The Iranians, not FOX) In fact, I thought it was amazingly centrist. And I didn’t know that Bob Beckle was a Carter advisor.

Mamas and “correction…”
When we were about to get our b*tts spanked, Mama would first hug us and say, “this is because I love you and you’re mine…” Then it was tear into the bottom end, “…this is because you weren’t acting right…,” then another hug and, “…this is because I still love you and you’re still mine…”
Been thinking a lot about her these days. The anniversary of her death is on the horizon. No sadness, just fond memories of a strong Southern woman, a gentle breeze or the force of a hurricane, as the need arose…

You are complaining about what someone wrote and you keep listing the Huffington Post as your source. DUH?
How would you accept anything a Conservative posted and used the Limbaugh Letter as a source?
