Time for a cool retro song I think. I’ve always liked this…
“If I’m Right” - Joy Zipper. (2003).

After my #HashtagGames post, I’m whistling it again already.
I loved this feel good song aged 5, and decades later things still haven’t changed!

Some sentimental self indulgence, as I’ve always loved Al Bowlly’s version of “Blue Moon”. We own an original 78, recorded in New York on January 12th, 1935.
Sadly, Al was killed during a German air raid on London in 1941, but left behind a great musical legacy. If you ever see a 78 of “Midnight, The Stars And You” lying around, take good care of it. You may be £700 to £800 richer!

The calming effect of music on animals is amazing. The YouTube algorithm’s working overtime throwing things at me this morning, but I’m not complaining. This is probably the most beautiful thing you’ll see today…

Anyone in the mood to hear a cool lady playing Hysteria by Muse on an electric harp?
Yep, me too…

What better tune for a wet, miserable autumn day. Lana Del Rey’s “Video Games” played on a harp…

In our (allegedly) politically correct world, I’ll probably be slammed for posting this video, but what the heck. It’s a great tune, and may inspire some people to take up office work. Jessica-Jane Clement and Alex Sim-Wise were apparently real life flat mates, which undoubtedly made the filming more fun!

I’ve always had a soft spot for Lana Del Rey, and there are many reasons why.
Here’s one of them...

Posted for no real reason whatsoever, other than the fact it’s an absolute belter. Especially the ending when everything comes together.
Katie White and Jules De Martino with their anthem for the forgotten and disenchanted, knocking it completely out of the park...

Flaco Jimenez (1939-2025), grande grande musicista. Immagini e suoni di festa e bellezza. Una vita "Tex-Mex" dedicata alla musica popolare, passata a suonare insieme ai giganti (Rolling Stones, Ry Cooder, Bob Dylan, la lista è infinita) e tra la gente.
