Appreciation

Just got back from chillin with the family in lake Travis. What a glorious place. Awesome people. Makes me want to move. 

We’re traveling this week in Montana and it’s a lovely break from the people, noise, and traffic of home. As nice as is, I’m looking forward to returning home, pouring a martini, sitting back and listening to some great jazz on my system.

@edgyhassle Nice listening choices.  I was on a trip to Ghana with around ten musicians in 2011.  We recorded an album with local musicians, studied dance and learned West African drumming with a master.  I had never met Bonnie Paine (singer/percussionist) or even heard Elephant Revival prior to our sojourn, but have tremendous respect for her musicianship.  Sadly, I think Elephant Revival has ceased being a band for a few years now.  While I really like their studio albums, seeing them perform added another dimension to their art.  All lovely people, too. 

....that the aids in my ears not only bring my gear back into 'proper focus', but they also allow me to re-hear birdsong....*S*

...and Today I become 70.

That, it itself, amazes me. *L*
(Oh, thanks...;)...)

You're right OP!

Some people put $$$$$ killer systems in their car, but they just sound boomy and voiced by Phil Spector - wall of sound is the glass six inches from your left ear (over here in England).

I mainly listen to car radio, then we have the wonderful BBC here, that broadens the mind rather than the sound stage.
