What are you listening to right now?

[JEK]

Ever since the Kennedy Center event this has been stuck in my mind.

[Rosemary]

Thank you for this. I passed it on to our daughter, a brand new resident at New York Hospital. She has nightime Emergency Room duty for the next few nights. We pray for everyone. Her co-workers loved it as well. Thank you, again.

 

[Peter NJ]

Congrats to your Daughter!

 

[JEK]

Congrats to Mom who made it all possible.

 

[Voosh]

Congrats. It's always cool to get them along.


Back to music. I'm in a "Kinky" mood. Always liked this tune:

That's marvelous Rosemary. Wishing her well on her ER assignment.

driving home today I had a JT mix on and was struck by how true this song's lyrics are....

[Rosemary]

"...nobody knows how we got to the top of the hill, but since we're on the way down , we might as well enjoy the ride...isn't it a lovely ride? ...try not to try to try too hard-it's just a lovely ride."

 

[MIke R]

I never tire of JT...did you catch the incredible version of "You Can Close Your Eyes" at the 9/11 ceremony???>....a song I sing to Lena many nights when she cant sleep....he was on top of his game when he sang that song yesterday

 

[JEK]

JT was good as was PS. They needed the Boss -- he wrote and sang about the event.

[MIke R]

yes - Paul Simon did a haunting version of Sounds of Silence

I dont think The Rising would have been a good song for the somberness of the event

 

[MIke R]

but I suppose if he did a more mellow accoustic version - that would have been cool

 

[JEK]

Waiting on a Sunny Day would have worked

 

[MIke R]

accoustic version

 

[JEK]

I've settled into Into The Fire.

This one may send even Voosh to the Google. The Wronglers, with Jimmy Dale Gilmore, live at Club Passim tonight. Roots Music, or as they referred to it, Heirloom Music.

 

[Voosh]

Jimmie Dale is a classic. Favorite line from him "Voosh? What kinda name is that?" "I don't hanker to being called Billy Bob or something like that since I come from the midwest." "Bro, we're on the same side - music." Yep.

Voosh,

JDG is indeed a classic, and the easy name. Cool that you met him.

The Wronglers are not so easy, led by a major VenCap dude, who was a former President and Chairman of Lehman Brothers, and a former head of NASDAQ - but you would never visually take him as anything other than an aged musician.

In the band, the bass player may be of more interest to you. Bassist Coleen Browne did a decent job, as did the rest of the band. Eight people on a postage stamp stage.

 

[Voosh]

Kevin,

I've had the privilege of meeting some "big names." Played music with a couple. No questions asked (by me.) We just played. Of course, I was sh*tting in my pants. Of course, some just said "good job" and some just ran off to whatever place they wanted to be. No complaints. Just great memories. Yep.
