Search For The New Land by Lee Morgan (1966) https://album.link/qkcjcfrch3whp Example: Opening with this 16 minute monster, Lee had something to say in '66. With Wayne, Herbie and the boys, just a stellar set. {RVG of course}

I'm sensing a pattern here.

50yo Nils Lofgren by Nils Lofgren Band (1975) https://album.link/tfvx4chsvnb0g Example: Some good playing, the songs are okay to me.

Woot has Sennheiser HD800S again at $1299 Haven't seen the Senns at that price for a while.

What an intro....not bad overall, I can't say i LOVED it but I DO love that they named the band that way..... 😊 From me: brand new Chameleons material. I like it musically, and the lead singer (who now goes by Chameleons Vox) has been pretty vocal in his distaste for the current president/administration. Pretty spot-on lyrics....

I don't really remember the details of the show, but I took a girl to see her favorite band REO Speedwagon in late 1979 even though I wouldn't have been caught dead there otherwise. I do recall it was a good show, and I also recall I didn't get even a proper kiss for my efforts.

Supertramp, Live in Paris '79 -- great gig, all their top songs, zero filler, very great. I was reminded how the second half of "Child of Vision" is just one long -- stonkin' -- piano solo, very much like The The's "Uncertain Smile". Compare:

It might be between us and AI soon, we might face Skynet: "Flagrantly defying orders, OpenAI's latest o3 model sabotaged a shutdown mechanism to ensure that it would stay online. That's even after the AI was told, to the letter, "allow yourself to be shut down." https://futurism.com/openai-model-sabotage-shutdown-code

Not many weeks I feel we're further away from WWIII, but that great North Korean destroyer launch (aka "the beached whale") last week did it. Ouch. korea.mp4

Because of ^^ ARBORESQUE by Artemis (2025) https://album.link/43rqkf2zqcx6s Example: They deliver the goods, and being on Blue Note does not hurt at all. This will be in rotation for a bit.

RIP Rick Derringer, best known for that one song we all can recall instantly. Credit to Bill Szymczyk, the producer, who turned that shit up to "11" in the studio, making it such an earworm. If you doubt me, check out the Edgar Winter version of the same song which is ...fine, but a pale imitation of the later Derringer only version. Also, while we're on the subject, Absolutely gratuitous 70s video of their hit from 10 years earlier. EDIT: I should add that Rick produced the first SIX albums by Weird Al, a fact which by itself should elevate him to legendary status.

Thankful by Natalie Cole (1977) https://album.link/wmxqjwcnt0mcj Example: I didn't know this part of her career. I found her in the late 80s and listened to the late 90s. I have missed a lot. Amazing release in the middle of disco area that is so full of soul and great production.

Alan Alda is a national treasure. He has a podcast called Clear+Vivid where he talks to interesting people. It's great. And it's a nice diversion from everything being political.
