The Music Thread

we should have a death threat dart match :cool:
Darts, pool and carpentry went to hell about eight years ago when a developed a ( minor) essential tremor. That was what actually led to my retirement. Shaky hands are not an attribute useful to a trim carpenter. It doesn't bother me much in general but repetitive motions degenerate in a hurry.
 
Anybody else get irrationally annoyed at the lyric "You're so vain, you probably think this song is about you"...because, whoever she's referring to, the song *is* about them?

Always heard it was about James Taylor. Having been negatively conditioned against him, I lost any interest in following up.

How'd you get negatively conditioned against him? I like some of his songs, knew he was addicted to heroin for a while, but other than that that's about all I know. Dude has a voice like fine silk, though.

That damned song my freshman year where you were likely to hear it at any time or place. I still have a mental block about even the name. I know it sounds put on but, it's real to me.

More familiar with people like the Iguanas.




  • Oye Isabel is my jam! Love this album. I've seen the Iguanas a couple of times. Great band!
  • Love Los Lobos too!
  • Mike Cross is also way cooool!
  • And JT? Not sure how anyone doesn't like James Taylor... but whatever.
Now to my buddy Pavel Wlosok - Jazz professor at WCU. From Czechia. I've been fortunate enough to have played a couple of gigs with him. Talk about a monster player. Here he is on summer vacay back in Czechia at a jazz club. Recorded just the other night.
This is not for the faint of heart:
 
I think this is probably my favorite of theirs. They're a little more experimental on this I think. The title cut is most excellent as well.
