Linda Lewis (born Linda Ann Fredericks, 27 September 1950 –. 3 May 2023) Her beautiful 1st and 2nd albums from 1971 and 1972.

Bad Bunny 1/2-time show...my review: Start- Promising. Early on-In Spanish with no subtitles: disappointing. Strutting with a football through Puerto Rico-kind of fun. Explosion of sexual innuendo, crotch-grabbing, dancers bending over shaking their behinds: I turned it off. P.R. deserves better.

YES (to be played at maximum volume)

R.I.P. Ralph Towner and Wilbur Wood

ca. 1975/76 Eberhard Weber "Yellow Fields" Eberhard Weber – double bass Charlie Mariano – soprano saxophone, shehnai, nagaswaram Rainer Brüninghaus – piano, synthesizer Jon Christensen – drums #ECM #Colours #Jazzsky

ca. 1983 Bill Frisell "In Line" Pure #ECM for sure. Solo and duets w/Bass player Arild Andersen In some ways this album pays homage to earlier ECM experimental guitarists, like Terje Rypdal but in its DNA, we hear the genesis of his later #Americana music. Like all ECM, it's there for exploring.

ca. 1986 Bass Desires #Supergroup #Jazzsky

These were some of Matilda’s final moments, spent in joy at a Hanukkah gathering at Bondi Beach, before her life was brutally stolen by terrorists in the Bondi Beach Hanukkah massacre on December 14, 2025. She was only 10 years old. May her memory forever be a blessing.🕯️

"Together successful, defiant Together the parts make a giant The birth of a realisation The rise of a high expectation" #GentleGiant says Hello!

Morning drive music: ca. 1968 The Byrds "Sweetheart of the Rodeo" #GramParsons #ClarenceWhite #ChrisHillman

The Hero of Bondi Beach just received a check for 2.5 million dollars (Aussie), from 43,000 donors worldwide.

So many heroes emerged during the Chanukah massacre at Bondi Beach. Chaya, just 14 years old, threw herself over two young children to protect them after their mother was shot. An incredibly brave young girl!

"Spanish Night" Such a gorgeous album. #Warsaw #Spain #Audiophile #Bestof2025

Happy Heavenly Holidays to Ariel and his beloved dog Tonto

I haven't heard 'Gargantua' music since 'Pantagruel's Nativity'.

Le Chasseur maudit (“The Accursed Huntsman”) is a symphonic poem composed by César Franck in 1882, inspired by Gottfried August Bürger’s ballad Der wilde Jäger. It tells the story of a Count who defies the Sabbath by hunting on Sunday and is cursed to be eternally pursued by demons😨 #Erato ca. 1975

A top 2024 #Classical release from #Chandos. All Nielsen program includes the weird and wonderful Flute Concerto, the mysterious Pan and Syrinx and the grandeur of the Symphony 3, 'Sinfonia Espansiva'.

#NowSpinning Martinů Violin Concerto No.2, with Lorenzo Gatti and Walter Weller. The opening is fabulously gritty and gripping, but soon gives way to something more searching and insinuating. Martinů’s trademark syncopation is there, along with those fantastical cadences.

Heinrich Schiff is a favorite of mine. Although his career was cut short due to health issues, he passed away at age 65, his legacy is enormous. I was lucky enough to see him in recital at The Ravinia Festival. This recording of #Dvorak is wonderful. #Schiff #Previn

Late night meditation with Tim Buckley

Great song from a great album. Joe Walsh on electric guitar and 12-string accompanies Dan, who also plays acoustic guitar and stacks some gorgeous vocals. youtu.be/Bqd3R2ZQ7io?...

Jimi Hendrix "The Cry of Love" Photographed in 1970, tragic figures Devon Wilson aka "Ida Mae", aka "Dolly Dagger" and doomed Swedish super-model Agneta Marianne Frieberg with Jimi. All dead within a year of each other.

"You said you couldn't leave me after all that we'd been through / I believed you when you said we should both try something new.” • “I was drowning inside here with a love that was so true / But you laughed right in my face and there was nothing I could do"

Carla and Steve For those of you who prefer Christmas music with less syrup and more dry wit.

Aaron Copland

A proper debut. It is Harry, after all... ca. 1967 Nilsson "Pandemonium Shadow Show" #TheBeatlesForever
