So the hits just keep coming as I heard another tune of distinction on "radio"
this time and a teaming up of John Lee Hooker and Carlos Santana and his band
with a song called "The Healer". John Lee Hooker's vocals always interest me.
He can make sounds with his voice that aren't words that just sound cool...his
moanin' and groanin' meandering. Carlos playing all guitars I think.

Quite a few artists did this song "I get a kick out of you" and not sure who was
first but Ella Fitzgerald had to be close to first. This is re-mix of sorts. The song describes
about everything I've tried but the results were "different" for me than the singer.

Since there is nothing to watch on TV...you can just listen to it. Comcast ch 945
is really some great jazz 24/7 and what's nice if you do hear a song you like you
can get up and write down cuz its on your TV screem. So anyway I listening away and
I heard a familiar song done by somebody else. It was "Wave Mechanics Union" doing
a Thomas Dolby tune "The ability to swing" and they do a great job with it.

But the original by Thomas Dolby is the music powerful stereos were created for.

The tune "The Honeydripper" has been done by many and its a fun song from
long ago. Well you know I can appreciate some great organ playing... this version by
Jack Mcduff has some great organ playing.

Have to say I'm listening to Comcast MC Ch 945 Jazz channel more and more.
So when KPLU goes to the NPR news nonsense at 3pm I can keep the cool jazz
music going on my TV instead of my FM receiver. Also if you hear a song you like
just have to look at the TV and all you need to know so you can go right to You Tube
and find it and post it on the Current Music section of the BJ. That's what happened for
my next addition to Current Music...a song about "black coffee" that came out in 1949.
We've talked at great length at the BJ about coffee and starbucks and peets and different
brewing techniques...but "black coffee" or "taking it black" means your drinking some
really horrible over-brewed coffee. When I make a fresh ground coffee beans cup of coffee
every morning the liquid in my coffee cup is not "black" but a brownish clear to where if
I dropped a penny in my cup of coffee I could still make-out Abraham Lincoln. Still my brew
is kick-ass. I think its almost a misnomer about drinking a cup of "black coffee".
So anyway the song that I heard that got me going on this written rampage on black coffee.

So here is my latest artist of interest...Atsuko Hashimoto. Atsuko is a woman's name I found out.
When I first listened to "Soul Station" I dint have the image of an Asian woman playing the organ
in my mind. Everything you know is wrong...Atsuko is very very good on the organ and just love
this relaxing cool sound. So there was another tune by her that was even better..."Blues for Naka".
So checkout Atsuka Hashimoto.

So I'm looking through the entertainment section of the Friday Herald and I come across
an article about Billy Bob Thornton and band (Boxmasters) are going to play in Stanwood WA
on Sept 12th at Loco Billy's Saloon as a fundraiser for the Northwest Music Foundation.
I was unaware the that the Boxmasters have 4 CD's to its name and Billy Bob Thornton has
4 solo CD's out. Billy Bob Thornton...who knew.

 Great work, Friend!

You have persevered and prevailed by keeping your chin up in the face of adversity visited upon you by the forum "owner".

For that, you deserve this!

Snippy takes a break from airliner safety films to partake in his other hobby, handing out dubious awards. Good to know that retirement daze are full of varied and interesting activity for the Tin Man.

So another tune heard for the first time worth passing along is by Pete Mills
doing a Horace Silver tune "Diggin on Dexter". Don't know anything about the
band but the organ player is fantastic.
