A new live video of Derek Trucks and Susan Tedeschi.

Watched Derek play with Eric Clapton.  Robert Cray opened.  And Susuan!  What a voice

I realize there won't be much interest but this is perfect for relaxing and reading a book, in my opinion.  It soothes rather than make me have to think about anything.  When I want something more upbeat I probably still don't fit the mold.  (Think Fleetwood Mac's Rumors or ABBA's Gold-Greatest Hits, etc.).  Then there's Ella Fitzgerald's So Rare and Etta Jame's At Last.  Ah, but I digress.  Today it is Joshua Bell on the violin.

This young pianist, Nobuyuki Tsujii, has been blind since birth, yet plays so beautifully.

John Coltrane and Johnny Hartman. This is an absolutely lovely album!

Tonight, let's begin with The Lumineers - Cleopatra

I'm sorry, but that image immediately made me think of this video:

That clip was pretty entertaining! For some reason it reminds me of Flanders and Swann, even though the acts are nothing alike.

I believe the lady on that cover was Theda Bara, a silent film-era actress.

Wife and kids have left for the day, so it's time to enjoy some prog rock. Today it's 'Yessongs' - Yes. It's a live album with subpar sound quality, but certainly superlative performances.
