  1. "Sugar" - Stanley Turrentine Sextet (A nice tune by one of my all-time favorite sax players) Stanley Turrentine - Tenor Saxophone Freddie Hubbard - Trumpet George Benson - Guitar Lonnie Smith - Electric Piano Ron Carter - Bass Billy Kaye - Drums
  2. +1 ^ (you are a lucky guy) --- My wife plays guitar and synth so if I bring home a new guitar or synth we both get a new toy. I just got her a used but never used Parker USA DF guitar like mine but with a different pickup configuration. We both get to play it. Notes
  3. Guatemala Connection - Hubert Laws
  4. Should have married a musician, then he could have brought home two synths and no flowers.
  5. Down in Hollywood - Ry Cooder lyrics: You better hope that you don't run out of gas
  6. It's just "living in sin" and there is something to be said for that :D
  7. I'd like to be buried at sea. Let the crabs have something to eat instead of burning me in a fire or enclosing me in a box. I figure I'll have no more use for this body, it may as well be food for something. And while we are on the subject. This is my favorite Rachmaninoff piece of music. It's in 5/4 time but the odd time signature isn't obvious. It's dark and moody and I like dark and moody Isle of the Dead - Sergei Rachmaninoff / Mikhail Pletnev / Russian National Orchestra
  8. Time Is On My Side - Kai WInding (original) and Irma Thomas (first vocal)
  9. Harold's House Of Jazz - Richie Cole (alto sax) Eddie Jefferson (vocals)
  10. They're not skinny, they're long (at least it's what I tell the girls).
  11. Abbey Road Medley - The Beatles In my personal opinion it's the best piece of work they did. I don't know what the "restored" version is all about, I'm about to find out.
  12. Agreed. I find it a turn-off myself. But then they aren't doing it to attract my attention. When I was a kid I wanted a tattoo. My mother refused to let me. It's one of the things she didn't let me do that I appreciate the most. I read that a doc that does autopsies said that he can always tell the people who have tats, their lymph nodes are black from trying to get the toxic ink out of their system. I wonder if that impairs the immune system that the lymph system is a major part of. Notes
  13. Honky Tonk - Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown
  14. "No Pain For Cakes" - The Lounge Lizards
  15. My ex-wife decided to get fit and walk 5 miles a day. I haven't seen her since. Last I heard she was in Oregon.
  16. And a song that still gets a rise out of the audience we have target. I like playing it because I left room in our sequence for a distorted, compressed guitar solo. As a sax player, getting to do things on the guitar that I can't do on the sax is just good, clean, fun. Play That Funky Music White Boy - Wild Cherry
