    I see Blue + Album art, I immediately visualize Weezer’s debut

    …followed quickly (after clicking send of course!) by Joni Mitchell

      Both albums are liberally endowed with blueness, to be sure. Could be another theme emerging… favourite blue albums!

    And you’ve got the color-coordinated header to go with it! Classy! 🙂

    B ugger me the old-timer said.
    L ittle pinpoints of light were spinning in the sky
    U ntil then, he’d not drunk Brasso.
    E njoying a drink was one thing but…
    M ight never have to drink again;
    O r not.
    O h.
    N ight-sky, moon-split, spinning apart.
    A deadly night.
    H ollowed head; hallowed?
    M ight just keep spinning.
    A ll ’round the sky.
    D elicate, like.
    J ust going gently.
    A round, around.
    M y head split in four.
    A round, around.
    L aughing.

    Delicious! Do like an acrostic verse.

    Enjoyed the Ahmad Jamal too. He doesn’t figure in the VC collection, which is a bit odd given the preponderance of pianists.

    And if Billy Cobham is responsible for an outburst of creativity, bring it on! I say.

      Oh no! I have truly let you down by allowing nearly four years to pass before seeing this comment and grasping your unrealized pain. I can help! Get you some Ahmad Jamal Trio Cross Country Tour 1958-1961 into you pronto if you have not yet. The album may be purple but it will definitely wash out the blue.

        Four years and I still have no Ahmad J in the collection. But thanks to your comment, I now have a quest. Into the purple valley…

              Trying to think what I have in the way of Sth American music/bands. Can’t come up with much, I’m afraid to say. Banda Elastica from Mexico, but that’s the wrong side of the Panama Canal, isn’t it?

              Yes, of course. Deodato, Jobim, Gilberto. But I’m sure there’s some more prog too…
