But hey, my female readers are loving these Fifty+, Fit and Fabulous posts (which I keep saying, I didn’t see that coming) …..so, I gotta keep cranking them out.

The great thing about when you are addicted to what I call “HGTV Porn” 🙂 , is the house doesn’t have to be exactly your style to like it… I mean, sometimes, I just appreciate someone’s own unique expression of their own style in their home architecture and interior decor.

This could be the stupidest analogy ever, as pertains to Jazz Music, but I can always change it later if it starts to sound absurd to me over time…. ….but, the best analogy of the impact of “Mister Magic”, is the likened to the what was called the “Christmas Truce” that took place very early […]

Not really complaining, but it’s taking a while for summer to break up here in Seattle. It’s a week from Fourth of July and we still got that 58 degree, raining all the time thing going on……but other than that, life is good…… [next 5 food photos below] Grilled Chili Honey Lime Chicken and Sweet […]

Stopping back by the “Urban Hang Suite”, Twenty-Sumthin’-Sumthin’ Years Later….. The joke was on me when I played Maxwell’s “Ascension” to start my Eleven Song Playlist of all-Maxwell cuts, for a Forty year old Sista’ out on my terrace while barbecuing after dark… See, so much of my music is outdated, “Pre-Histroic” as my nephew […]

"I guess I should have known, by the way you parked your car sideways….." "….it wouldn't last". "See, you're the kind of person, that believes in making out once, " "….Love em' and Leave em' fast".

The door to the gymnasium opened, and a man in his early 50s walked in. He [Kazuyoshi Miura] was dapperly dressed in a cream-coloured three-piece suit, pale pink shirt, burned orange tie and gleaming dark brogues. His black hair was styled in a rakish quiff, and his goatee was neatly trimmed. A red rose was […]

I knew even as a kid that someday I would be doing a "Purple Haze" cover…… Rewind "forty-something" years, me and my crew are on our way to the school yard to play some baseball….. …we hear a garage band blaring some Roll & Roll a couple of blocks away, so we take a quick […]

To go to the original post with the new song, click any of the 4 photos or CLICK HERE I was never happy with how my original version of this song sounded (they say that ALWAYS happens to a musician’s first song). So, now that I got my “ears right” and my “studio software right”, […]

Unfortunately, the internet won't help you much researching this issue for yourself. Why? Because profit driven Corporations often […]
