I have been a fan of bassist Endea Williams for a while now; the's the bassist in Louis Cato's band on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert. I've watched her play her heart out and keep up with the best of them.

So today I finally went looking for any mosuc she's relesed on her own, and lo and behold there's one fantastic jazz album out there, called "Feel Good Music". She has of course guested on many albums, but this one is so worth a listen.

I bought Dr. Fauci's book.

It's quite likely the only way I'll ever get to say "Thank you".

This crossed my feed this morning, and so I share.

Anyone who blathers on abot "Critical Race Theory" just doesn't want you to know tthat they and their parents did this. From the mouth of one of the better baseball players of all time.

I have this guitar riff in my head (and at my guitar) that I can't seem to drop. It would be an instrumental piece in 5/8 time.

It's nothing terribly difficult - in fact it's pretty simple and easy to play once you have the rhythm down - and I can't shake it. It's the sort of thing that you just close your eyes, lean back in your chair, and let wash over you.

I had never planned on it being a song; it's just something fun to warm up with.

But my brain says I need to turn it into a full song.

@GlennS Give this one a shot too:

I really didn't appreciate the bass part until I saw it live.

Lake Street Dive from last night's episode of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert...

Really looking forward to this album.

I notice in the Republican Primary in Virginia that 37% of all Republicans voted for someone OTHER than Trump.

That was today.

Holy carp this is impressive. Celebrating #Juneteenth, this is Kings Return, whom I had never heard of before 10 minutes ago. with an astonishing a capella rendition of "After the Love has Gone"

@northernbassist
Given the range there, I gotta say it:

BABY GOT BACK!!!

🤣

Sing along.

#RIP Willie Mays.

Never saw him play. Met him once, at the unveiling of the statue of him at what was then Pac-Bell Park. It was a busy day so I doubt I left any impression at all and that's fine.

The man had so many defining moments in one of the most amazing careers in the history of the game and people who understand the game better than I do can explain it better than I will.

For us, he was the game. A legend by just about every standard.

@BillyBones
Apparently they're all friends, and would trade who was the opening act and who was the headliner. When I saw them The Stuffies were the opening act and were on stage nearly 2 hours, played a lot of new material that would wind up on the Never Loved Elvis album. Very different sounds between the two bands but a great show.

@BillyBones I saw The Mission when they toured the US with The Wonder Stuff. I was there to see the Stuffies but they put on a great show.

I couldn't tell you anything about their lineup. like most who know them I was introduced to them when their song "Don't Forget Me When I'm Gone" came out.

I have a soft spot for certain Canadian bands: Rush (Obviously), Triumph, Glass Tiger and of course, Max Webster.

Ooh, add both Power Windows and Clockwork Angels by Rush to my list.

unsaid: "...and if you want a preview of what that looks like, look at the first few minutes of any Trump rally..."

Gonna bookmark this concept for later:

Compare the number of cases of #COVID that can be traced back to each nominating convention. Both have the potential to be spreader events, but only one will have so many unvaccinated people in the same room.

I'm curious what the comparison would be.

@Christmas_Snow @BillyBones Ooh, someone besides me owns that Glass Tiger album! 😂
