For a band that I don't like, I sure have sen them a lot. Anything past the Moving Pictures tour and they just became a parody of themselves.

Betsy….Betsy ………Betsy I only caught up with your post last night

I love jazz!

Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, Shirley Horn, Miles Davis, Oscar Peterson, Charlie Parker, Chet Baker, Cassandra Wilson. What on earth was playing for you to hate it so much?

I think that sometimes jazz presents a similar problem to classical music in that it is difficult to know what to listen to first. It is easy to be put off for years if you hear poor music.

I put a few of my favourites and some jazz tracks that I thought were more accessible on a cd for my g/f. She really likes playing this in the car and isn’t a big jazz fan. Give these a try – I’m sure you’ll like a few of them. The two Neil Young covers in particular are very good, I think.

Track Listing

Diana Krall – Look of Love
Louis Armstrong – We have all the time in the world
Bobby Womack – California Dreaming
Grover Washington (featuring Bill Withers) – Just the two of us
Jamie Cullum – Singing in the rain
Madeleine Peyroux – A little bit
Claire Teal – What a difference a day makes
Peter Cincotti – Up on the roof
Cassandra Wilson – Strange Fruit
Lizz Wright – Old Man
Stacey Kent – Landslide
Gwyneth Herbert – Only love can break your heart
Michael Buble – Me and Mrs Jones
Dina Washington – Mad about the boy
Nina Simone – My baby just cares for me
Ella Fitzgerald – Everytime we say goodbye


Let me know what you think

Let me know what you think
Will....Will.....Will....Will....Will....

Have you been soaking up too many rays?

Thank you for the jazz download.

It has gotten to the computer....now I need to burn it to a CD, so that I will be a captive audience in the car...and can give it a good listen.

(I hate the radio...too many morons think they are clever disc jockeys.) I spend a lot of time in the car commuting so your CD will be studied and either enjoyed or detested ()

It is late at night and I am trying to unwind...there was no wine in the house, so me, and this here bottle of beer, are doing our best to relax.

Are you still in the Middle East? How goes the job?

In honor of the Presidential Campaigns, here is an old button from 1992.

This thread is so funny. Here is my torture list:

~ Rap and Hip Hop
~ County and Bluegrass
~ Dixieland Jazz
~ Elvis
~ Billy Joel
~ Steely Dan
~ Song from the 70s called "Afternoon Delight" (was popular at the same time as Rumours)...pure torture.

I'm sure there are many more hidden away in the torture chamber of my mind.

Oh, and here's another gem that I have the misfortune of being reminded of continually due to my step-father's (thank God we don't share the same genetics) fondness for this hideous creation:

What a weirdo!!!!!!!
The 70s produced some putrid stuff. Thank God for Fleetwood Mac!!!!!

Well burn it to cd and give it a try. I reckon you'll like some of it - but still let me know even if you hate it. I mislabelled the Gwyneth Herbert track on the file but it is a cover of Neil Young's 'Only Love Can Break Your Heart'.

No I'm not soaking up the rays. I started work on Tuesday in Chicago as a civil engineer on the Skyway. It is quite a contrast to what I was doing. The weather is definitely a shock to my system - but you'll be used to the cold.

Enjoy the music and don't be drinking too much in the house

I have to admit that I have listened to a few of the tracks and they aren't horrible. At the dentists office, there were no vocals....just jazz music that went on and on and on...like Titanic... tin-sounding trumpets with no real drum stick hits, just so many brush-like sounds hitting the drum head, then some squealing instruments.....

Add to it that I wasn't in the best of moods ~ and one has 50% of the dislike.

You might be able to change my mind...I will leave it open.

As for the Windy City (Chicago) being your kind of town (for now)....does this mean, that we won't be seeing any more "Show Yo Mug" shots of you on a beach, and we will be getting some "winter shots"

.... just asking for the "Stew Mathews" calendar I am putting together. I need some winter additions.

One more quick...what was the Bruce Springsteen website you pointed me to, where they had the demos posted? I can't find that thread anymore. Or was it someone other than Springsteen....the mind is a terrible thing to waste....and alcohol kills brain cells....
