Pulled out some old LPs today if only just to remember what I've got stashed  in my collection that's on vinyl.  I have to admit that it just sheer laziness on my part and a lack of organizational skills (I have no idea where a lt of this stuff is stored in my house) that stops me from listening to music on vinyl more often.

I came across Matador and Idle Moments by 1960s jazz guitarist Grant Green.  God he was good and I totally had forgotten about his work.

Wow, that Matador album is great!   Just downloaded it from iTunes.

Hammer inspired me to look through my older music; now listening to Tragic Magic, one of my favorite Traffic Tunes...

I hadn't heard Beck's Bolero in a while; thanks!

A friend told me about it too, Friday night at dinner, and I asked how Geddy did covering Chris' parts, and he said great.  He was right.  Very nice Roundabout.  I wouldn't mind seeing this lineup do a whole show.

Hah!  From the same show, but this time with Steve Howe on bass.  Owner of a Lonely Heart.

Well, it has been a few days since I had time to catch up on my listening, and I must say, very nice stuff, folks!
And how well you know me, Greg!  I was already looking forward to my August drive to Denver to see the grandkids there, but now I know I'm eating at Cracker Barrel on the way - just to buy Alison's new album!

In the mid-80's, the guitar player I was playing with invited me over to watch the movie Dune.  He pointed out that his favorite part of the movie was the song that played during the credits at the end, and I had to agree.  That song has remained a favorite.  Toto - Take My Hand.

Another from Alison's "Windy City" album... 

"Dream Of Me"
I miss the road some days. Or rather, I miss the life I had back then.

I spent some time on this tune from Vince Gill's "High Lonesome Sound" album. Lee Sklar on bass.
I was trying to play the entire album on fretless bass for practice last night, but got trapped by this one, and had to reach for my Distillate.  (and a pick!)  ;D
