Sad News about one of the great modern Jazz men.

This track shows his brilliance and that of the Trio's I can't embed this link but check out a fantastic track from their last studio album

Wonderous

May Daze

Here is a Muxtape for May. Created in the dying days of April and due to be posted earlier this month but the damn fine weather has kept me outdoors (raining today). Read 'Things the Grandchildren Should Know' in the early days of this month and can highly recommend even without being a fan of the music. But if you are your in for a treat. The pic above is from the visually stunning movie 'Sunshine' that's the best review I can give it...

Music, Music, Music at last....

With a advent of a new PC and the loss of the serial numbers for my mp3 making app, I've been at a loss to upload a set of songs. Then I came across muxtape thanks to Graham Linehan's blog. So were back on track. The link below leads to some of the songs that have been on heavy rotation... Martan's Muxtape

Been a while….

So much for a New Year's resolution! But two months since my last entry, I just gotta blog.
I'm hoping to have a new set up in the next week, just need to configure some bits and bobs on my new PC. So dear reader I just want to draw your attention to the following that has brightened my nights and days over the past 60 or so days.

Really like the sounds of Los Campesinos

One part Zooey Deschanel and one part M. Ward makes She and Him

What is the joy of cinema? 7:35 in the morning
