Sarah Vaughan - Brazilian Romance

I'm neither wild about much of her offerings, nor bummed by them either. But IMO this album is so good I bought it and enjoy it.

"Smoke! Smoke! Smoke! (That Cigarette)" - Tex Williams

From 1947 - could it be the Western Swing bands invented Rap way before our generation?

 

 

Sprechstimme was way before rap.

Teen Town - Jaco Pastorius

Jaco and I both played in that Boca Raton Teen Town in an old WWII Army barracks building.

I also played with on of Jaco's first bass teachers. He said that Jaco learned so fast that pretty soon he had nothing else to show him.

Hundreds, perhaps thousands of Robins are on their way back up north and are darting all around the area, chirping and squawking as they forage for insects, berries and anything else edible. So I have the windows open to enjoy the chorus. It only lasts a couple of days before they move on. They are early this year, they usually arrive in early February.
