Happy Belated Birthday Todd - take care - cheers -

I forgot I had a bunch of 1975 (50yo) albums in my queue. so Captain Fantastic And The Brown Dirt Cowboy by Elton John (1975) https://album.link/s73nbgfjm47tw (hey look album link is working again) 🤷‍♂️ Example: I was going to share the title track which I like so much, but this is just prettier. I grew up with this album, my sister had this. I spent a lot of time with looking at the cover.

Happy Birthday - cheers -

Been in the Seattle - Museum of Pop Culture (MOPOP) - many times - always enjoyed the building as much as the collections. Here is an exceedingly boring shot.

Another Tiny Desk this week - lovely.

whatevs...

Just a bit of nerd fun.

Yeah, I was just going to mention, I remember all the stories from Steve Hoffman about having to cook the tapes so they could at least be run through the player. Movies also have all their own issues.

Star Wars: The Phantom Menace by John Williams (1999) https://album.link/h4zfvgpn2qsmk Example: Movie Sucks: John Williams does not suck. I have the soundtracks to the original trilogy, but was not thrilled with the pre-post movies, so I never picked them up. Recently organist, Anna Lapwood, added Example to her shows, inspiring this listen. There are a few lovely themes, and snippets of themes you love sprinkled throughout. I don't know if this means I need to listen to 7 more soundtracks or not, but I enjoyed this one.

^^ Hmmm. Gotta start measuring in Breakfast cups now.. 🤷‍♂️

The President is outraged at multiple Democratic lawmakers for reminding members of the military of their constitutional oaths and responsibilities. Dan points out that individual agency among soldiers is a societal firewall protecting all of us.

Cheers and Happy Birthday -

Dvorák: Symphony No. 9 in E Minor, Op. 95 "From the New World" by Leonard Bernstein (1962) https://open.qobuz.com/album/5099706056324 Example: Poking around at some versions. (no, not a full survey). I really like the lyricism of Lenny's interpretation, I am in favor of the power of the Karajan recording above. Originally a CBS Masterworks recording, Sony turned up the volume and released when acquired.

nice... If not ready for Christmas, there is new years, MLK day, President's day, Juneteenth, Talk Like a Pirate Day, next thanksgiving.... etc. (fuck you matt)

Cheers HC team - happy birthdays -
