“And so it was, later, as the miller told his tale, that her face, at first just ghostly, turned A Whiter Shade of Pale.” To the memory of Procol Harum’s Gary Brooker 💜 who would have been 79 today. He sadly left his body in February 2022.

IMO this is the most important record of the 1960s folk era…

To the memory of one of the greatest... the mighty Miles Davis 🎺 born on this day in 1926. Miles left his body in Sept. ’91, aged 65. I’ll need a listen to my favorite Miles records ‘In A Silent Way’ and ‘Filles de Kilimanjaro.’

He's five feet two and he's six feet four. He fights with missiles and with spears. He's all of thirty-one and he's only seventeen. He's been a soldier for a thousand years. He's a catholic, a Hindu, an Atheist, a Jane, a Buddhist and a Baptist and Jew. He knows he shouldn't kill

Welcome to Thursday in 'Trump's America'... I believe dictators will always be terrified of comedians, because humor has the power to expose truth and challenge authority. Tonight is the final show for Stephen Colbert. His powerful, meaningful voice will be sorely, deeply missed!
