Skip’s Polka Music Variety Show
Currently listening to the Mahavishnu Orchestra ~ The Inner Mounting Flame.
Since I'm in a Mancini mood, here's another favorite:
Can't forget this one. What a mood this marvelous man painted with music...
Here's one I had not heard until today:
One more, if you please. Mr. Mancini wrote this for the original (1963) Pink Panther soundtrack, and it's catchy (as is Fran Jeffries)...
The music of Brownie McGhee and Sonny Terry always makes me smile:
Of course Come Sail Away steals the show, but a great album as a whole also.
Give us twenty minutes and we'll give you the world
We bring good things to life
The news you need from people you can count on
Doing what we do best
The heartbeat of America
Your true voice
You're in good hands
Now more than ever before
And in the flickering light and the comforting glow
You get the world every night as a TV show
The latest spin on the shit we're in, blow by blow
And the more you watch, the less you know
Beyond the hundred million darkened living rooms
Out where the human ocean roars
Into the failing light, the generations go
Heading for the information wars
We bring good things to life
The news you need from people you can count on
Doing what we do best
The heartbeat of America
Your true voice
You're in good hands
Now more than ever before
And in the flickering light and the comforting glow
You get the world every night as a TV show
The latest spin on the shit we're in, blow by blow
And the more you watch, the less you know
Beyond the hundred million darkened living rooms
Out where the human ocean roars
Into the failing light, the generations go
Heading for the information wars
I have that same radio. Great little unit that really pulls in the stations.
I wasn't going mention it, but I had this theme song on my mind today while at work and was planning to practice it on my cheap First Act guitar when I got home. And here you are posting it (cue the Twilight Zone music)
I like the album cover art on that one.
Currently listening to Gentle Giant ~ Octopus.
And all Mancini albums had Conrad Gozzo on lead trumpet!! Mancini insisted.
