ARTFUL, BALANCED, TIMELESS, ETHERIAL & CONTEMPLATIVE. JUST THINK ABOUT IT.
Thanks for your interest . . . I'll see if I can come up with something. She was a wonderful person with a great spirit, a tremendous sense of humor, and a passion for life. Her she is with some of her colleagues . . . third from the left. She was the "life of the party"!

Great photo that wonderfully captures the setting, but I really don't like that "space". Too bad it couldn't have remained as Dr. David Hosack's "Elgin Botanic Garden", pictured here circa 1810 . . . a resource later squandered by Columbia University.

Yep . . . that's Bob James! No doubt about it. He's got a way of gently grabbing your ear and touching your soul. Nice post.

The Maharaja of the Keyboard . . . I heard Oscar Peterson perform a couple of times in person during the 1960s, and indeed, he was that good!

Just a few moment ago, I discovered that my late-wife's great aunt (Elizabeth Mulliner Luboff, one-time spouse of the legendary Norman Luboff) helped to "give birth" to a jazz classic . . . "Someday My Prince Will Come" . . . with this recording in 1944. COOL!

Thanks, I'll check it out! Just like the very early recordings of Billie Holliday . . . one-of-kind and truly unbelievable.

RICH SOUND & LUCIOUS PHRASING . . . Wouldn't you love to be able to stand in front of a bold & brassy Big Band and effortlessly (seemingly) belt out an intimate, enticing love song? Nice work if you can get it . . . and she did! Wonderful post!

Let me know when it becomes an insurrection . . . you gotta watch out for those kind of things.

Life imitating Art imitating Crap . . . politically speaking. The guy is a bit of a mess.
