  1. Voodoo Child - Kenny Wayne Shepherd Riffing on a Hendrix song - (Kenny can play guitar much better than I can - but sax is my main axe)
  2. Funeral March of a Marionette (Marche funèbre d'une marionnette) - Charles Gounod The theme song for the TV show, "Alfred Hitchcock Presents"
  3. We just lost Bonnie Pointer so here is a fun little tune by the sisters written by Allen Toussaint. Yes We Can Can - Pointer Sisters
  4. Walking On Sunshine - Katrina & The Waves
  5. "Electric Boogie" - Marcia Griffiths You know how it goes, no need to post a video. It's the song that just won't die. Bunny Wailer who wrote this song said that it's about a woman's erotic vibrator.
  6. "Highway 61 Revisited" - Johnny Winter IMHO much better than the original
  7. "Five Minutes More" - Frank Sinatra My father's favorite singer.
  8. "Speak Low" - Cal Tjader & Carmen McRae ... doing a song composed by Kurt Weill, with lyrics by Ogden Nash
  9. For a few years, when saxophones were not in great demand, I predominantly played bass, and doubled on sax if necessary. So I listen to a lot of bass lines. I admire the bass playing of John Paul Jones and feel he needs more recognition. He probably doesn't get enough because he rarely stands out, always supports the song, and never gets in the way of the melody. Here is one of his most melodic, it's busy, it soars, but it still supports and never gets in the way of the melody. Listen to the bass playing and see if you agree or not. What Is And What Should Never Be - Led Zeppelin
  10. Symphony #2 in Bm - Alexander Borodin / Valery Gergiev / Mariinsky Theatre Orchestra Borodin was a chemist by profession who also wrote some nice music.
  11. Fire - The Crazy World Of Arthur Brown
  12. IMO The best version of this Screamin' Jay Hawkins classic that I've heard. I Put A Spell On You - The Animals
  13. I like the both, but the straight one better than the circular. Nice work either way.
  14. The Tempest - Piotr Tchaikovsky - Claudio Abbado & the Chicago Symphony Orchestra (I'm actually listening at home on a CD - better fidelity than UTube)
  15. Heart Attack - Demo Lovato (don't listen if you don't like auto-tune vocals)
  16. It's been raining for days. Not typical Florida rain where it's sunny all day interrupted by an afternoon thunderstorm but rain, rain rain. Looking at the 10 day forecast, it seems there will be no letup in sight. I don't really mind the rain, it's keeping the temperatures down and the plants in the yard are going through a nice growing spurt. "Behind The Rain" - Gato Barbieri
