Thank you Jon, and tina! I've been wanting that fixed for a long time.
bon, check out the jazz vocals I put up for Fay. I think there are things there you'd enjoy.

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.

Ideas of CDs to give to my mother as a present? She's 56, a suburban matron, and loved past gifts of the Buena Vista Social Club and the soundtrack to Get Shorty. I think she was less wild about Portishead. (I was not the giver of any of these gifts). Not hip in the slightest, but likes interesting funky things.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
The new Paul Anka album with all the rock covers?

and the soundtrack to Get Shorty.
Hmmm. We could work with this. I have a lot of jazzy rhythm driven instrumental score stuff.
You know, she might like some of Vince Guaraldi's non-Peanuts work. He did a lot of latin and brazilian themed albums. Also, Cal Tjader did some very fun/snappy latin jazz albums, having a big hit with "Soul Sauce." Cal's a vibes player, so she'd have to be amenable to vibes, but it's very lively, catchy and playful music.
Vince's Jazz Impressions of Jazz Orpheus with "Cast Your Fate To The Wind" is a classic.
Vince Guaraldi and Bola Sete is also very good.
Cal's Soul Sauce is fun.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Hey, do any of you people have an mp3 of the original Schoolhouse Rock "Three is a Magic Number"?

That would be me. I have the box set.
Do you want me to email it directly to you? Or just post it on Buffistarawk?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Okay, just posted to Buffistarawk.
1. "Three Is a Magic Number" - Bob Dorough. Written and sung by the School House Rock music director. Bob was an old jazzbo who had been the pianist for Blossom Dearie and Annie Ross in Paris in the 50s. He won some fame in the 50s for his "Yardbird Suite" vocalese where he sang the bio of Charlie Parker over Parker's own "Yardbird Suite" riff. Cool guy.
2. "The Tale of Mr. Morton" - Skee-Lo. One of JZ's favorite songs. Guaranteed to make her dance and sing along at the same time. This is a great cover. Charming and an excellent groove.
