"Reconsider Baby" - Elvis Presley The 24 bar sax solo by Boots Randolph is great on this take of a Lowell Fulson song. Considering what Boots used to play on his commercial releases, this was a wake-up call for me.

It's the pre-yellow-snow season

"Three Little Birds" - Bob Marley & The Wailers

Natural Born Bugie - Humble Pie

I Don't Need No Doctor - Ray Charles (original artist - covered by many, written by Nick Ashford, Valerie Simpson, and Jo Armstead)

I don't rake, I let the leaves return to the earth slowly as nature intended. But the Northeast edge of Tropical Storm Eta came through and tomorrow I'll have to collect dozens of fallen palm fronds. Not complaining, the strongest gusts we had were around 60mph. We got a lot of rain, but at 32' above sea level, I'm on top of the Florida Alps. Even better, we didn't lose electric power, so the becan in the fridge isn't spoiled. I think I'll have some tomorrow.

Brazilian Romance - Sarah Vaughan with Milton Nascimento (full album) This is not your typical Sarah Vaughan album. IMO it shows a delightful side of her talent that I really enjoy.

"So Many Stars" - Sarah Vaughan

Money troubles???

Perhaps these gals can help And to follow the Steve's Metal Gods post / Steel = Metal Reggae Fever - Steel Pulse

A tropical storm is headed close to us (we'll probably get a fringe of it for a few days unless current predictions are wrong. So I'll listen closely to see if the wind really does cry Mary. "The Wind Cries Mary" - The Jimi Hendrix Experience

Doesn't matter, it's all just for fun.

Video unavailable - sorry Steve so I'll follow the post by ||:pwal:|| <- repeat signs Mr. Sandman - The Chordettes I loved this song when I was a wee child

"Heat Wave" - Cal Tjader & Carmen McRae I nice take on this jazz classic - IMO the entire album is nice.

Kurski Funk - Paul Winter with the Dmitri Pokrovsky Singers

'tis the season "Vote For Me" - Joe Walsh

Jesus Just Left Chicago - ZZ Top

You might like the entire album. IMO there isn't a bad song on it. He does a reading by Kerouac from in this Charlie Parker classic. I believe the words to the song itself are by King Pleasure, and I think the Kerouac reading is from "On The Road" Parker's Mood - Mark Murphy & The Muse All-Stars with Richie Cole on alto sax (Richie is one of my favorite bop alto players).

Surfers Rule - The Beach Boys

Joy Spring - Clifford Brown (He wrote it for his wife)

A great spoof of the Bond flicks.

Goodbye Porkpie Hat - Mark Murphy A Charles Mingus song dedicated to tenor saxophonist Lester Young with words added by Joni Mitchell and IMO Improved by vocalist Mark Murphy with alto saxophonist Richie Cole and the Muse All-Stars backing him up.
