Music: Bill Evans

I really do love piano.  I love the way it sounds.  I can imagine how it feels when I hear others play.  All this because I spent a multitude of hours playing from age 5-19.  I gave it up at that point.  Always wish I had stuck with it.  I just couldn't imagine not getting a degree that would give me a career.  But as it turns out I ended up a stay at home mom and never used my degree.  Music would have kept my heart happy.  Enough of the regret.  I still am having a wonderful life.  It's always the what if???...

Here is an amazing jazz pianist.  I hope you like this half as much as I do.

Music: Oceans

I LOVE this song.  The words are so good.  Enjoy and I hope it speaks to you.  Oceans

Music: Etta Jones

This lady knows how to sing jazz/blues.  She is often confused with Etta James but there is a clear difference in their voices.  I love her voice and can tolerate Etta James' voice at best.  I woke up with this song in my head.

So, I couldn't find the song that was in my head so I chose this one.  I love this one too!  Enjoy!

Music: Congregational Singing

Congregational singing. This is what I call this music.  It's very popular music, we all know ALL the words and it sounds great when people come together and sing.  Enjoy, sing along I am!

Music: Psalms 42

As a deer panteth for the water so my soul longer after Thee, You alone are my heat's desire and I long to worship Thee.  I've heard this song, even read Psalms 42, but it meant so much more today.   We have been going to Colorado Community Church and enjoying it so much.   It is a church that really understands worship.  Enjoy!

Music: From 1981

1981 was a good year.  I married the love of my life.  I also really liked Steely Dan, still do.  This was in the top 100 of 1981.  Enjoy!

Music: Reminiscing

Isn't reminiscing what music helps us do?  Then it's only appropriate that this song from the 70s would be a good one.  It was during college, I had lived through a sad break-up and I was so grateful to have my sister close.  She was there for me.  That being said a lot of these 70s songs remind me of time spent with my Jetta.  Still miss her so much.

Enjoy this flash back.

Music: Bill Charlap

This time of year I love this old tune.  It's beginning to look like autumn here in Colorado.  Cool nights and the turning leaves have already begun.  Enjoy a beautiful rendition of Autumn in New York.

Music: Peaceful

Bill Evans, one of the best jazz pianists.  I have a wonderful Pandora station that is my go to station.  It happens to be Bill Mays Trio which is the basic jazz trio.  But I love them.  Bill Evans my be considered more famous and I love both.  This is a jazz standard and is well known. My Foolish Heart.  Enjoy.

Music: You Don't Know

Yes, two posts in one day.  This one was for yesterday.  Sorry, out of order!  You won't recognize this artist.  It's a young Marvin Gaye singing jazz.  Enjoy!  It is a rarity.

Music: Feel Good Music

This music always makes me feel good.  Of course it's "my" kind of music.  So if you love r&b especially from the 70s you will love this tune.  Isley Brothers, great musicians!  They are very soulful, have some funk when needed, and one of the best guitarists rating right up there with Jimi Hendrix.  They actually were instrumental in discovering Jimi Hendrix.  Enjoy!
