  1. Sultan -> Sheik So let's shake our booty to The Sheik Yerbouti Tango - Frank Zappa
  2. Botticelli Triptych - Ottorino Respighi
  3. More classic (at least older) ? Light Calvary Overture - Franz von Suppé
  4. Putumayo presents Latin Jazz This one should be good with Machito, Tito Puente, Poncho Sanchez, Ray Barreto and others
  5. Instead of bifocals, try progressive lenses. The prescription goes gradually from near at the bottom to distant at the middle, so you can adjust your head to see the monitor. There is one drawback, the field of prescription is relatively narrow so your nose has to point pretty close to what you want in perfect focus. Notes
  6. "Llorando" - Rebekah del Rio Roy Orbison's "Crying" in Spanish with nothing but the singer washed in reverb. It's delightful. I saw the movie "Mullholand Drive" long ago and IMO this was a great segment a mediocre movie. Her expression, nuances and control are extraordinary.
  7. Putumayo Presents - Brasileiro Putumayo usually has well produced recordings of music I've never heard before from artists I don't know and most of them are from foreign (to me) countries. I'm exploring this as I type. So far, not bad at all.
  8. Thank you for that Wibbles ? It's a Long Way to the Top (If You Wanna Rock 'N' Roll) - AC/DC
  9. Inner City Blues (Make Me Wanna Holler) - Etta James Etta did a nice job on this Marvin Gaye classic
  10. I like Parmesan-Reggiano but I prefer Pecorino Romano for most foods. Scamorza is nice too. And with either Parmesan or Romano, if it isn't made in Italy it isn't the real thing. When visiting my cousins in Italy, we went right to the cheese makers to get cheese, both fresh and dried varieties. Notes
  11. And it's not the first time he's done that. :D
  12. "Muddy Mississippi River Water" - Wild Bill Emerson
  13. Instead of Feta cheese - Fetish cheese? OK so now how do they make "Head Cheese"??? (perhaps I'd rather not see that)
  14. Turn! Turn! Turn! - The Byrds (triple word score???)
  15. One good Herbie Hancock interpretation deserves another Cantaloupe Island - Mark Murphy
  16. March Slave - Tchaikovsky - Zubin Metha conducor Note: Slave means Slavic People (from Serbia), not humans owned as livestock and is pronounced Slav. I think it is something ELP could have turned into a rock song.
