We have lots of coffee table books on art, design, and architecture. So many that I sometimes get depressed because I don't look at them often enough. 😿

Any motorcycle riders here?
Teasing the Korean replied to Dmitry's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
I would love a Vespa or Lamborghini, but until then, I'll have to be content with using clothespins for attaching baseball cards to my bike's front fork. -
Each show is archived for one magical week, before disappearing forever into the ether, unless an alien civilization picks up the broadcasts in thousands of years. (Radio waves theoretically travel indefinitely.) The show is called Surface Noise on www.wmnf.org, and she just won programmer of the year. Surface Noise primarily focuses on late-70s/early-80s punk and new wave, along with genres that led to this, such as 60s garage and glam, and stuff inspired by this. It also includes a segments titled "Your Weekly Todd" and "The Bowie Votive." Finally there is "The Cocktail Mix" in the last 15 minutes of the show, during which she may spin anything including jazz, standards, Latin, Brazilian, exotica, space age, spy, crime, French Pop, Moog, sitar, outer space. She sometimes does birthday tributes in these segments, hence my question for @GA Russell. But this week's cocktail mix will continue Earth Day recognition with a Brazilian aquatic theme, with Brazilian songs about frogs, ducks, fishermen, little boats, surfboards, and March waters. https://www.wmnf.org/events/surface-noise/ You can listen live on Saturdays 4pm - 6pm EST.

Wide range of musical interests, as with me. Good thing I found her. I would have stayed single otherwise!

Any notable birthdays falling between April 26th and 30th? Ms. TTK is seeking suggestions for her radio show. Thanks in advance.

How is this? I never heard of it. NP: Lee Morgan - Search for a New Land - Blue Note, stereo, played back in MONO to improve the mix! -

Not true with this primate. The stuff that made an impression on me occurred between ages 30-50.

Maiden Voyage was my second Herbie Hancock album, Empyrean Isles being the first. I got both circa my junior/senior years of high school. This would have been very early 1980s. I also had The Real Book by this time, and while I was no expert then - nor now, for that matter - my sense was that "Dolphin Dance" was one of Herbie's most well-known tunes, next to "Chameleon" and, a year or two later, "Rockit." -
That's what's selling. Even downloads don't sell much anymore. Listeners in the aggregate either want vinyl, or they want to stream.

Some, not much, overlap. I am counting three common tracks. https://www.discogs.com/release/7578982-Herbie-Hancock-Herbie-Hancock Interesting that neither included "Dolphin Dance," unless that tune's stock rose in value after the mid-1970s. -

Herbie Hancock - 70s BN 2-LP comp from the series with pixilated colorful graphics. Because sometimes a nice 2-LP set is what you need. Playing it in mono to bring up the piano and bass, as I frequently do with BN records from this period.
