Are Ye Sleepin’, Maggie? - A classic, most likely originating in Scotland.

Think: What was that song about waking up Maggie ? ;-)

Variations on a trad tune in which I interspersed original two voice melodies. A bit of a no-no in traditional circles.

Channeling my Jaguar energy to deal with the current chaos.

Un jaguar "mata de un solo golpe." She kills with a single bite.

Close your eyes... this guy plays with a timbre that looks like Paul Desmond. Enjoy the groove:

The prompt is Void

Romeo Void, “Never Say Never” from Benefactor, 1982

I’m highlighting this one song - perhaps #RomeoVoid’s most well-known, so least likely to need highlighting - because everything about it is so emblematic of the #PostPunk/ #NewWave of the early #80s: The scratching guitar adding texture more than melody, the pounding drums propelling the song without commenting or elaborating on it, the driving bass, as closest thing to a lead instrument, the disaffected, double-tracked spoken vocals, and for good measure, dollops of #sax punctuating the spiky proceedings with some full, shiny musicality.

When this hit my ears - crisp, snarky, and female-empowering - it was so refreshing, in a more spare, lean way than the wire-scrubbing-brush-to-the-ear of all-out #punk, as a caustic tool for dislodging the pablum of dentist-office muzak and commercial radio sludge that shrouded so much of life at the time.

Step on up, come one, come All! All are welcome (and required) at All's Fair - a Fair where every tit has its tat. All's Fair, in love and war, serves the needs of All, whether pliantly or peremptorily.

A carnival of topsy-turvy exchange, All's Fair provides the circus - though you may pay dearly for the bread.

Featuring alto sax.

This is The Oak of Boerne, a very cool private cigar bar.

I've done a couple of gigs there. Cool spot, cool owner, cool guests.
