Lady Onogaro (July 3rd, 2020)
From 1978, a superb 2-record collection of Big Band classics by the Syd Lawrence Orchestra. (Gotta get warmed up for 4th of July observances.)
Background for today's drawing session, these Beethoven cello sonatas.
Not that the musicians will ever know, but do you think they'd be insulted at just being "background" for another endeavor?
Other recent "backgrounds for drawing":
And just for variety,

It's not exactly what I'm "into" in general, but this is a happy little video that I thought I'd share.

A Record Store Day 2020 release on the Resonance label - 2 LP set by Bill Evans, Eddie Gomez and Jack DeJohnette titled *Some Other Time: The Lost Session from the Black Forest*- recorded 6/20/68. Quite nice.

Tonight I am listening to some Nina Smone and some Leonard Cohen.
Cheers,

An odd mix today: Smells like teen spirit, the original, a cover by Patti Smith, and a version in Latin (I kid you not), and a few other covers.
And a new CD from Duo Macke Bornauw of baroque and traditional music played on musette de cour, bagpipes, and accordéon. Including 'The arrival of the Queen of Samba' :-)
Today I think I'm going to follow up VerticalTwin's idea of Nina Simone and Leonard Cohen. A nice mix!
Rammstein (german metal band). I love their last album! Metal music helps me concentrate in my job as freelance custom annotated bibliography writer

Led Zeppelin II
I have this on LP but thought I would see what it sounds like remastered, streamed, through my jabra headphones because then I can lay down on the sofa after a long work week that just ended. Sounds damn good is how it sounds.
Coming of age in the 80s I was more about new wave and Zep wasn't on my radar in any kind of flattering way (I was young and dumb). I came around to appreciate this legendary cadre of musical badasses, eventually, by way of explorations into electric blues. So while I am late to the party, better late than never to appreciate this fantastic album that is only slightly younger than me.

Really enjoyable, catchy stuff.
Online arguments are a lot like the Rocky Horror Picture Show.
As soon as the audience begins to participate, any actual content is lost in the resulting chaos and cacophony.
At that point, all you can do is laugh and enjoy the descent into debasement.
