If I didn't mention it before, Try Johnny Smith with Stan Getz on "Moonlight in Vermont". Should mellow you.

Hey, Jack, I apologize for not responding to your comment on my earlier newsletter. I appreciate the kind words. Now that you mention it, you did recommend "Moonlight in Vermont" with those guys a while ago and I liked it a lot.

Watched the Lankum video. Outstanding. Will get to the others soon. Thanks, as always, for the recommendations. It's so hard to find new music now.

On the other hand, Sarah has discovered Wilco, and the stuff on their Pandora channel has been excellent. So there's that.

I am a time traveler from the first half of the twentieth century, taking it one day at a time - so something that seems remarkable to me might have happened a quarter of a century ago or more - for example, quite recently I learned about Fiona Apple's music video of "Across the Universe" - it is beautifully done - the video juxtaposes her serenely singing the song as a baseball-bat-wielding gang of crackers demolishes a fifties soda fountain around her

one could say that fine metaphors abound
