Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach  

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

This is so nifty, I needed to share:

My bro and SiL are closing on a house today. Also, they probably won't be coming home for Christmas. My bro is a HUGE Thelonious Monk fan.

I figured I'd send them something for the house for Christmas, and I found this: [link] , which I'll frame (black, I think) and send them.

There's this Mingus one: [link] , and he really is Mingus' Bitch, but he's also Monk's Bitch, and I just like how stylized the Monk poster is.

Oh yeah - There's a definite Art Deco feel.

I agree: go for the Monk.

"P.S. My invisible internet friends approve of this poster. You may hang it on your wall with pride."

Music Query:

What do you call the metal bars you hit on a glockenspiel or a vibraphone or a xylophone? Are they called keys, or what?

I think they're just called "bars"? [link] or [link]
