Album cover features a color photograph of a hill on the coast of Monterey, California. The sea is a deep cobalt blue, and the waves crashing on the shore are frothy white. A small island is seen just off the shore in the distance.

Album cover features photo of Chico Hamilton, wearing a sort of woven-straw pork pie hat. He's squinting a bit, with a serious expression, and looking very demanding.

Black and white album cover features five white spheres with lines through them, sort of like repeated reflections of a full moon on water.

Back in New Mexico. Driving home, I heard this on the radio and assumed that Björk had taken to singing in fluent Spanish. In fact, it's a Chilean singer named Mon Laferte: youtu.be/WT-VE9OyAJk

Been watching old movies while visiting family for Xmas. Tonight we saw "Random Harvest" (1942). It's a great story that sort of resembles a war-time Severance if you squint. Greer Garson is radiant and Ronald Colman is likeable enough. It's on Tubi: tubitv.com/movies/10003...

I'm visiting family for Xmas. My 12 year old niece sang this song for us with my 17 year old nephew accompanying on piano. They are really good musicians!

Tim Hardin - "Suite for Susan Moore and Damion - We Are - One, One, All In One" (1969)

The high lonesome sounds combined with all the family photos scream,"She's left me". What a way to end the 60s.

Neil Young - "After The Gold Rush" (1970)

Somehow I went all these years without acquiring this record, until today. Apparently this lp was inspired by a Dean Stockwell script for a movie that never got produced.

#NowPlaying #NeilYoung #vinyl #VinylRecords

youtube.com/playlist?lis...
Album cover features a black and white photo of Neil Young wearing a back pack that's in the shape of a little old lady. Neil's handwritten lyrics to After The Gold Rush: Well, I dreamed I saw the knights in armor coming Sayin' something about a queen There were peasants singin' and drummers drumming And the archer split the tree There was a fanfare blowin' to the sun That was floating on the breeze Look at mother nature on the run in the nineteen seventies Look at mother nature on the run in the nineteen seventies I was lyin' in a burned-out basement With a full moon in my eyes I was hopin' for replacement When the sun burst through the sky There was a band playin' in my head And I felt like getting high I was thinkin' about what a friend had said I was hopin' it was a lie Thinkin' about what a friend had said I was hopin' it was a lie
