The Bryan Ferry Orchestra - The Jazz Age - 2013 This is a pretty cool disk. Ferry has used the 1920's jazz sound to reproduce some of his catalog. There is no singing and the interpretations are unique to anything I have heard before. Good stuff and all music linked to ALL Music. A little about the making of

I put on a set of mainly old stuff from my growing up days... Horses - Dala Goodbye Girl - David Gates That's All - Thee Midniters Dreaming Casually - Thee Midniters All Day Music - War Wild, Wild Life - Wailing Souls Arthur's Theme - Christopher Cross Last Night I Didn't Get to Sleep - 5th Dimension One Less Bell to Answer - 5th Dimension Cherish - The Association Amazing Grace - Blind Boys of Alabama Hi De Ho - Blood, Sweat and Tears And When I Die - Blood, Sweat and Tears My Back Pages - The Byrds That's the Way I Always Heard it Should Be - Carly Simon Saturday In the Park - Chicago This Diamond Ring - Gary Lewis and the Playboys What Becomes of the Brokenhearted - Joan Osborne/Funk Brothers Room Full of Mirrors - Hiroshima Lawless Avenues - Jackson Browne 1-2-3 - Len Barry Just a Song Before I Go - Crosby, Stills and Nash Like To Get to Know You - Spanky and Our Gang It's a Shame - The Spinners There was quite a variation in recording quality, given the age of some of these songs but that didn't matter. It was fun listening to them and "reliving" what those songs reminded me of. And singing "yee-hah!" with David Clayton Thomas during the short horse-trot refrain of And When I Die. So today's set didn't put my speakers or rest of the system to the test but so what.

Their "Red Hands" video is awesome. The music ain't bad either. WOTE's cover of "Someone I Used To Know" with 5 of them playing the same guitar at once was my intro to the group as well.

Kate Bush - 50 Words for Snow - 2011 It is late and I have been working all weekend till about 1:00am trying to get some deliverable's done before my trip to Paris in another week plus I head back to SFO on Monday for the week. I love working from home as it affords me the time to do my thing in the style I like. This is design work so I can listen to headphones while I work away. This is a beautiful album and the latest to date from Kate. Just a marvelous voice that speaks to anyone lucky enough to listen. All of my postings for years now on this thread are hyperlinked to all music. I enjoy this forum to share and there are not many listeners that I have crossed paths with that like my less popular choices. I am finding so many of you too posting nuggets and most I have not heard of before. All the stuff from Metaldude, is pretty much new, Dyohn is always busting my bank account, Jackfish, audiofile, Emovac, monk*, Raven, Creimes, Hemp*, LC*, and so many others keep it coming.
