I am in a SLIGHTLY BAD MOOD about something INCONSEQUENTIAL and I have already complained to my wife AS MUCH AS IS REASONABLE and now I am OUT OF SOLUTIONS!!!

@_motherslug Essential jazz *adjacent* reading? (Marsalis, Kirkland, Cinelu, etc)

[jeffrey lee campbell @jeffreyleec]

@Wildaboutmusic Me too. Different prayer I'm guessing.

@greenfield64 I knew a 5-run lead wasn't going to be enough. Yankees had their chances - but couldn't deliver the knockout.

The NY Post endorsed Trump today.

Apparently Rupert Murdoch does not fear retaliation from Kamala Harris.

@barneyhurley1 I'm coming up on my third anniversary playing guitar for Broadway's "MJ." I'm not sure there would've ever been a hit musical about Michael Jackson life without Temperton's timely contributions to Michael's fledgling solo career. A major songwriter/visionary.

@barneyhurley1 GOAT sideman

The dumbest part of the WaPo/LA Times not endorsing at the behest of their billionaire owners is that it turned a non-story into a major one. Their endorsements of Harris would have been a blip. Their silence is a bright light shining on their cowardice.

@brandonousley @rod_forever According to Temperton's bio, he wrote the jazzy intro to "keep his drummer interested." The jazzy harp intro was left off of the original radio edit. The tune languished until radio started playing the full intro. Moral of the story: Ignore the suits, trust the musicians!

@wychstreet Yep. Great singers know that lyrics actually mean something. Words aren't just vehicles for flashy notes.

@in_yacht And he's the drummer on "Let's Get it On." From Marvin Gaye to Lawrence Welk = some serious "range."

@MissMargoPrice Note: Berkeley/Berklee. Carry on.

[jeffrey lee campbell @jeffreyleec]

@headphoneaddict And bonus points for squeezing "Pagliacci" into a pop tune!

@ThatEricAlper Person: How do you perform drunk?

Musician: I practice drunk

[jeffrey lee campbell @jeffreyleec]

@wychstreet So good on so many levels
