You Heard Me!

I'm finding that I need fewer and fewer words.... Seniya Simonova is a Ukrainian artist who creates all that needs to be said with her hands.

Here's a "mono" sound recording of the Lovin' Spoonful's 45 RPM hit record, "Summer In The City ". This is exactly how I remember hearing this smokin' hot tune! Warm Summer nights... riding around in a turquoise blue, 60's convertible Mustang with my girlfriends!

The world lost a great musician and innovator today. Sadly, Les Paul has passed away at the age of 94. A self-taught guitar player and electronics wizard, he developed and revolutionized the world of music. His invention of the solid body guitar, and the development of multi-track recording has influenced musicians the world over.  In fact, many young guitar players today,  may have no idea that their guitar has got Les Paul written all over it.  This wonderful man will be missed.

Doesn't this just make you smile?  Yesterday I took a little trip out to Point Reye's Station, a small community in Marin County, CA.  This is a photo of Toby's, a store filled with all sorts of goodies; local jam, honey, candies, fruits and vegetables.  Hay is sold in back.
