What Are You Listening to Now 7.0

Majo Aguilar rates up there at the top among singers who I like. Almost everything she sing has the perfect softly romantic tone to it. "Coffee and reflect" music. :)

 
This was from 10 or 12 years ago - ran across it on youtube and it reminded me of when it came out and I loved it.....

 
I found the disk abandoned in an old CD player I haven't used in about three years.

Nice! I've seen that band several times live, and their shows are always memorable. The last time I saw them, at a small venue that also served fancy romantic dinners, I stood in line to buy two CDs that the whole band signed. One band member also got a double eyeful of my lovely wife, who was wearing an extremely flattering dress at the time, so I was not surprised one little bit. I've called it her "rock star" dress ever since. I won't embarrass him by saying what happened next.

One song from this CD, "Reva's House" contributed a name to my Valley Winter Loop novel, which was published last year.

Now, the oddest thing yet ... I just went to open my copy of this CD, and inside was also another CD, homemade, upon which someone wrote:
Hey
How are you.

So now, of course, I'm listening to it. The first three songs were unfamiliar, so I deputized Shazam. A sampling:

1: I Have No Sister - Oh No Oh My
2: Meow - Anamanaguchi
4: Rose Quartz - Toro y Moi
5: Open (Ryan Hemsworth Remix) - Rhye
6: Retrograde - James Blake
...
14: Dead and Lovely - Tom Waits

So, somebody either made me a surprise mix CD, or left it inside one of my jewel cases by mistake. I suspect the former, and I suspect that my son, who has been "borrowing" my music for 10 years, did it on purpose -- I recently found one of his jazz CDs inside the jewel case to my copy of Vince Guaraldi's "Jazz Impressions of Black Orpheus". I put his CD in the pipeline to be returned to him, but God only knows when I'll see my CD again -- or him -- now that he's living his own life in the hinterlands.

Good thing I was somehow able to acquire an original vinyl LP for "Black Orpheus". And that digital copies of Vince Guaraldi's music are easy to find. And, of course, that I love my son.

Considered the best cellist of the 20th century and hearing his rendition of this with the depths and heights of emotion, I’ve heard no other that can compare.

Mstislav Rostropovich - Bach Cello Suite No. 1 in G Major, Prélude


If you like this, his Bach: Suites for Solo Cello album is sublime. Utterly moving, as though he is holding my heart in his hands.
 
An old one:

And she's still about, although not looking quite so slim.

Chloe, I was fortunate in doing a job in a Hotel in Sunderland a decade or three ago. And Guess who was doing 'Sound Checks' and generally rehearsing ? Sweet.
It was bloody good to hear them, even if it was for a very short while.

It was a great time to be a High School delinquent, it was before the music died the draft was still on and the drinking age was still 18... did I ever write about the time down by the crik (Yes, that's how it's properly pronounced!) with a six pack of Genny and an armload of Vikki? If not, I will...
