You Go to My Head By Carole Boston Weatherford I sang my songs so much that they became the soundtrack for my dreams, the melody of my moods, a room I lived in, and a balm for my wounds. I sang my songs enough to know them backward and forward, enough to wonder if they could lift me from hometown haunts to center stage. I’d sung my songs enough to think I could take on Baltimore’s best talent at the Harlem Theatre Amateur Hour and maybe even win. If you sing a song enough, it can go to your head that way. This belongs with the post above

The blue note bent but did not break. It carried sorrow the way a river carries moonlight: moving, shining, still dark. - Miles Gray

(1) Jeffrey Emanuel on X: "Here is "Part of Your World" from Disney's The Little Mermaid, reimagined hypothetically (using GPT-6 with my mtdt music theory tool and custom music theory skill library) by the following composers: Liszt Rachmaninoff Schubert Bach PDF music scores, midi files, and more: https://t.co/PqlqxlJlxL" / X I got a notice that this would not work but it seems to be a valid link. This was not built by me. I've been following someone who is putting a lot of effort into building an AI program that reimagines music. I've asked him to build something based on Thelonious Monk and am waiting for the output.

Tete Montoliu - Live at the Keystone Corner

Here's a few places to look: Ferreira-Mendes Portuguese-American Archives at UMass Dartmouth — the primary repository for Cape Verdean-American materials from the New Bedford area, which is exactly Edmund's community and audience. If a family donated acetates, they'd be here. New Bedford Whaling Museum — has significant Cape Verdean community collections. WNBH New Bedford's history — the local station most likely to have broadcast the band; local historical societies sometimes hold station transcription discs. Descendants of bandmembers — the band included Bob Chestnut, Joe Livramento, Paul Gonsalves, and Vicki Vieira. Gonsalves's estate/family has been approached by researchers before (John Fass Morton interviewed people about Edmund for Backstory in Blue) — Morton himself might know if anything was played for him during research. Wikipedia The Music Museum of New England and the National Jazz Museum in Harlem — the latter handled the Savory Collection of 1930s–40s off-air discs and knows the private-collector world for exactly this kind of material. ARSC (Association for Recorded Sound Collections) mailing list — the single best place to post a "does anyone hold this?" query; it reaches institutional archivists and the serious 78/acetate collector community at once.
