Put aside a couple hours - or an entire weekend - to meet Julia. Bassists the world over are stunned. She’s 23. Youtu.be |

Cool! I guess we hung on to 40 or 50 movie score and Broadway records (among other stuff kite Best of Gershwin, etc.) from my wife’s house. 😀

So - mrs monochrome and I were discussing our fathers and remembered the kind of cocktail parties they hosted and attended when we were young. Highballs and cigs and Henry Mancini were the order of the day. We went to the old vinyl record racks in the cellar and pulled out a 2-platter Mancini compilation and listened to all 4 sides. These two classics were a real nostalgic* treat. :) Youtu.be |

Fifty years ago,
MGB with the top down, slender blonde in the passenger seat, warm summer eve on the way back from a party, KSHE FM and speakers in the doors . . . . . The blonde was and is mrs monochrome’s good friend.
Tonight we listened to the entire album, on her original (worn out) vinyl, drinking wine on the screen porch. If we had any idea then we would be such old dudes with a multi-zone sound system in our house we would have puked. Youtu.be |

The Long Riders was released the year I was married - 1980. It is alarming to think most of these actors were in their early twenties when it was made. We decided it is worth watching tonight just for the Ry Cooder soundtrack. Youtu.be |

My daughter drove up from Jefferson City for Mother’s Day. We’re just relaxing doing rotating DJ (its a thing) pining for some semblance of normal. Not Joan freaking Baez Youtu.be |

Uhmmmm - the Scotch-Irish descended of Ulster Protestants who - seeking religious freedom from Charles l - brought their stringed instruments and music with them when they settled in Virgina, Tennessee, Kentucky and the Carolinas.
They brought what is now Bluegrass / Country music.

I guess by political I meant no long, commentary acceptance speeches.
“Country” is so broad it’s nearly all-encompassing. We have pretty eclectic taste in music, but we do spend a weekend in Nashville every couple years. As fans I suppose we concentrate on bluegrass and traditional folk / spiritual artists (the Scotch-Irish mountain music found on Will the Circle Be Unbroken ~ Nitty Gritty Dirt Band) .A good friend frequently plays for/with Del McCoury and Emmy Lou Harris.

The CMA Awards, hoisted by Reba McEntire, Carrie Underwood and Dolly Parton. Nothing but music on this award show - brief award presentations and thanks you, no politics and really not too many commercials.

R&B Shuffle. It’s a lot of Motown 1962 - 1972. Sam Cooke, Sam & Dave, Aretha etc. mrs monochrome hates the stuff. Air Buds are awesome.
