Jazz for aficionados
Today's Listen: McCoy Tyner -- SAHARA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TJz5J-k04CQ&list=PLphrIV29xxqtHaJHsSAJuTZL5uILcJOdw I still hear Coltrane. Or was it Tyner all the time. :) This is one serious guy. Cheers |
Ok Frogman, and Rok; we're going to move on, that's fine with me, I have no problem avoiding reality. I bought that LP Sahara when it came out. It took Tyner and Trane to make the Coltrane sound; consequently, when you hear Tyner, you also hear Trane in your mind. I like "Inner Voices" also. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hDMnSIedk-c&list=PL4T6xBFLnigsWD2gl9UPfjUx1zOWosIWZ Enjoy the music. |
Heroin Video: I am not sure I get the point you are trying to make, unless, it's that drugs and addicts are found everywhere. if so, you have no argument here. It's all tragic. A few observations: The two women stated that the deaths of family members triggered their use of Heroin. They were so distraught. I think she mentioned an Aunt. We have all suffered those losses. A lot closer than Aunts. I never thought heroin was any sort of answer, and only a very weak minded person would. I think it was all BS. Where were the parents when they begin to hang with the wrong crowd? Where were the parents when they dropped out of school? Stress? How much stress can a upper middle class teenager have? Not being able to provide food for your children, That's Stress!! Deaths: 185 in a little less than a year. I think Chicago averages about 500+ per year. Murders that is. Drugs have been around as long as Man has. In the rural areas it's Meth. That's worst than heroin. They get no help or publicity at all. BTW, we now know that the German Army was on Meth during the war. No wonder they could go non-stop. There is nothing new under the sun. Cheers |
This is stress. I cannot even listen to it anymore. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1tSV6nNTGO8 Cheers |
