Oh man, these threads are monumental. Like, there is such a rich tapestry with the music you folks share, it’s overwhelming. It is rich, like a heavy chocolate cake.

It’s a Norman Blake afternoon. He is my favorite country songwriter, singer, and instrumentalist. Here’s old Norman playing one of his recent originals on an old guitar.

@keith929, thank you for the reminder of Leon Thomas. You inspired me to put this one on.

I’m old and out of it with technology so I haven’t a clue re posting these “samples” of everyone’s favorite stuff. Any advice?
Lately I’ve been listening to lots of big band stuff from all eras, including Mike Vax and the Stan Kenton Legacy Orchestra. BTW, Mike is now my trumpet teacher. He’s a Monster!

Now playing Rush - Hemispheres
​

The people were delighted
Coming forth to claim their prize
They ran to build their cities
And converse among the wise
But one day the streets fell silent
Yet they knew not what was wrong
The urge to build these fine things
Seemed not to be so strong
