All Activity

I dumped LinkedIN years ago and it is surprising how much info was spread to other sites. It was beyond useless, like a FB for business.

I have a new phone - haven't even added email or Facebook. But my Facebook circle is small and I never find myself scrolling thru posts the way my wife does (she has a large group of "horse friends") ... I do spend time on youtube but not obsessively and to be honest, mostly during the work day. No "subscribed" feeds but I let the algorithm keep me abreast of similar vids that I do watch (aviation, comedy clips, true crime especially the upcoming Donna Adelson trial (IYKYK). I liked and was a little horrified at the author's way of manipulating youtube to regularly see reminders of the fragility of life and the need to live it away from screens.

Thanks for sharing. I only have LinkedIn but don’t really use it. Sometimes YouTube of course. Thats it. Tend to stay far away from al those other platforms. Part from those awful algorithms and other dubious unethical elements I really don’t feel de need to expose my life to others. Except the jazz part but that’s where I have Organissimo for

Eddie and Joe go head to head here in 1969 with Thad and Mel in Europe. "Tow Away Zone." (Clip says 1970 but it's from a year earlier.) Coda: I heard Daniels give Eddie give a fantastic performance of the Nielsen Clarinet Concerto with the Detroit Symphony Orchestra in 1997 -- not a good-for-a-jazz guy performance but great-for-anyone performance. If memory series, he also played an arrangement of Gershwin's "Three Preludes" preceded by an improvised cadenza and offered a brief "Chelsea Bridge" as an encore. I don't remember who arranged the Gershwing and Strayhorn for clarinet and orchestra.

Buddy Guy, Ain't Done with the Blues

Not familiar, but will check it! Is it all instrumental? I'm really looking for certain types of lyrics with this thread, but thanks for the suggestion, regardless.

What happened was that he decided he wanted to make money. He made a lot of it playing clarinet and pumping out smooth jazz for GRP. Who can blame any of these smooth jazz guys for riding a gravy train? If he had stuck playing "Joe Henderson", I highly doubt he'd be as rich as he is today.

Great article. Awareness of malicious design is the first step to realizing one is consuming the mental equivalent of junk food.

A tad long, but interesting to me and maybe others. Might even stimulate a conversation. https://www.thefp.com/p/social-media-shortens-your-life-heres-how-to-get-time-back?r=px8hr&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=false
