It is visible to the internets ( I check by logging out and seeing what I see). Well good news on the test results and good luck with the continued research Knucks. Now rest....

Speaking of pop, I have been listening to a new artist to me, OSTON. She has been putting out a series of short albums over the last few years. Gives me a good Dodie feel and some Lorde, etc. Just Finished both of these. Am I Talking Too Much? OSTON 2021 https://album.link/i/1577449646 I'm Definitely Talking Too Much OSTON 2021 https://album.link/i/1590055069 Catchy well produced but not over produced (there are only a few writers).

RIP Matt -- condolences Brent...

Congrats and good luck Dusty

Over all I like the vibe of it. New to me. Let us know if there is something else in the catalog to check out, that is on your list. Also new to me. Negative Act of Denial 2021 https://album.link/i/1575238753 Example: Melodic Death Metal. I didn't know I need this in my life, now I do. Kind of a Metal supergroup from a collection of good players.

Love is an Art Vanessa Carlton 2020 https://album.link/i/1491832112 Example: So this song came up the other day - As it does in life: And it is still an awesome bop. So it got me wondering what is up with Vanessa these days. Still making music. She had a 2020 release (above). It was a good listen. I enjoyed the playing and the production a lot. It would be interesting to go see her with just a piano and keyboard setup.

Just a fun one. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/jamesveitch/james-veitchs-comedy-special

Nope that is the first thing I saw when I went looking. I was interested in her solo work first. I will check out her soundtrack work later. - thx

So I came across this EP in my queue (I have a lot of things in my Q) Sola Melissa Parmenter 2021 I liked it - which led me to her last Album: Messapica Melissa Parmenter 2020 https://album.link/i/1526705693 Example: The Albums only problems is that it is short. Delicate pieces with lovely melody and structure. And then I just played the next thing in the queue - just happen to be another short album. Mendelssohn: Symphony No. 4 in A Major, Op. 90, MWV N 16 "Italian" Orpheus Chamber Orchestra 2021 https://album.link/i/1570823392 Example - People like the first movement - I like the last: A very good modern performance. It may not be my go to for this work, but it good.

Happy Birthday Iam - Cheers!

LYS Mari Samuelsen Scoring Berlin Jonathan Stockhammer 2022 https://album.link/i/1614703352 Example: I enjoy listening to this album so much. A diverse set of tracks that I just keep playing (three days in rotation). Need more Mari.

Added Countney to playlist. thx

Twas a bit on the stingy side. Can you tell it is blackberry season in the PNW?

I took a 20,000 step hike. I think it won. I am not so mighty...

Cruel Country Wilco 2022 https://album.link/i/1621315138 Example: Tis a Cruel Country. Overall, a nice album.

Charles Mingus Presents Charles Mingus (Remastered) Charles Mingus 1960 https://album.link/i/1610350703 Example: Good performance. But also made him sound like kind of a dick. Don't applaud, don't make any noise, just sit there and shut up and listen we are busy up here.

in..

I'll allow it. homemade za and a tankard of dew

I turned 20,000 days old today... (yes, really) ...and counting

RIP Hache - been waiting for this one after hearing the extent of her crash. I remember her fondly from the likable, but over the top, Six Days Seven Nights. Sad for family.

Superunknown (20th Anniversary) - I chose not to go with the Super Delux 4h:15m version. Soundgarden 1994 https://album.link/i/1440811129 Example (hard not to just post spoonman): A lot to like about this album...

Speaking of SFJAZZ, new this morning: 😁

Brian Jackson JID008 Brian Jackson, Ali Shaheed Muhammad, Adrian Younge 2021 https://album.link/i/1561881049 Example: Good mix.... But now

A lot of my 80's were ruled by Olivia. I watched Xanadu (thanks for the clip G) countless times. The blend of her and ELO was magic to me. RIP Olivia You are suspended in time.
