Hi all,
Some of you might remember that I start my day with the <"Italian Breakfast>" and 20 minutes of <"contemplating the latest "good" news"> and also that I'm a massive <"Gil Scott Heron fan">.
Most days I listen to Gil Scott Heron, he has a whole host of them, but the (Ronald Reagan themed) <"B Movie">, <"Home is where the hatred is"> and <"Winter in America"> cover it fairly well.
But this morning I listened to the great man's "I think I'll call it morning" and I actually went to work quite cheerful.



cheers Darrel

Good for you Darrel - we need you cheerful;

"I'm gonna take myself a piece of sunshine
And paint it all over my sky"


It's impossible not to be cheerful after listening to the jazz poetry of Gil Scott-Heron.

Love this song!

Cheers,
Michael

Hi all,
I was very sorry to hear of <"the death of Thom Bell today">. A name that might not mean much to younger readers, but a man <"who wrote">, arranged and produced some of the greatest "Philly Soul" music of the 1970s. It has been a bad year for soul fans, because we also lost another great song-writer in <"Lamont Dozier".

However what really caught my eye, in his obituary, was:
....... Bell remained financially savvy, steering clear of drink and drugs because, he told me, “I never wanted to embarrass my mother. Heck, no. My only hobby was tropical fish.
Unfortunately it is now too late to ask him if that was in a planted tank, but here are The Spinners with "I'll be around".



cheers Darrel
