Graham Parker and the Rumour
They've just announced a reunion tour, coming to The Birchmere, in Alexandria. A friend is ordering tickets for a bunch of us. Great band, which never got their due...

My nephew! Jeff Hayashi, super talented, and is currently working on an album with his oldest friend out in Watsonville, CA/Santa Cruz. This new album will feature Ernest "Boom" Carter (played with Bruce Springsteen, for one) on drums. Jeff has played since he was 6 or 7 years old, and brought along his guitar to our recent family reunion--played every night for us and others at the camp!

He writes his own lyrics, music, and arrangements. He's producing, orchestrating and playing guitar on the new album--should be out by the end of the year. Really excited for him!

Here's a song on ReverbNation from over a year ago, Blue Sky Blues. The other two are good, too, but this one is my favorite. You have to click on that song to hear it played:

Nice, Katva! Creative, musical, and enterprising. Earlier I listened to a beautiful Dominican choir at St. Rose of Lima church on 165th St. In NYC. Lovely.

Any Pink fans out there? I've never been a huge fan but I just watched a rerun of her performance at the 2010 Grammy's of "Glitter In The Air". It was outstanding and made me want to hear more.

OK I admit it...I'm ALL over the place when it comes to music. The only stuff I can't stand to listen to is rap and most heavy metal. I may be "of a certain age" but I ain't dead yet I can dance like no one is watching!

 

[Grey]

NHDiane, I have P!nk on my iPod for working out--she has some fun songs for getting the heart rate going.

I liked your comment about dancing like no one is watching. My toddler daughter and I regularly begin our mornings with a little dance party. It gets the day started out right.

 

[NHDiane]

Grey - At this stage of the game, I consider myself lucky that I can still do a few of the "moves" And, if anyone IS watching, they must get a good laugh out of it Probably the same people that pull up next to me in the car while I'm belting out Adele!

Sam Cooke. Night Beat is one of the greatest albums of all time.

I like that one , Mike; thanks!

 

[Eddie]

That was really nice, Mike. I always thought The Cure wrote some great tunes, with great pop sensibilities. She nailed it.
