Intoxicating music



In the 60's, which is a decade that went by in a blur, I dropped pills that took me to far away places which did not exist. This music I'm listening to is having the same effect.

"Upojenie" is the name of the CD, and "Are You Going With Me" is the name of the cut that took me to "Shangrilasa", which is a place that's existed in many vivid imaginations.

Pat Metheney and Anna Maria Jopek are the artists who rose to new creative heights that brought us "otherworldly" sounds which transported me to "Shangrilasa".

John Abercrombie's "Timeless" took me to the blue frozen mists of "The misty mid region of Weir". I'm still perusing Phillip Glass and Mike Oldfield, of "Tubular Bells" fame.

I had flashbacks of "head shops" when I heard "In-Gadda-Da-Vida". Those were places with black lit psychedelic posters on all the walls and even the ceiling. You were greeted by the fragrance of 1001 different kinds of incense upon entering one of those establishments. As well as intoxicating, music can also be a time machine.
Rok2id, check "Bengal and Beyond" on youtube; Amar Priya, Cafe; and Calcuta Cutie.

Rok2id, The Jazz Universe is forever young and always in order. I recently acquired "Moods" by "The Three Sounds" led by Gene Harris. Although it's all good, "Tammy's Breeze" is my favorite cut, it's also on youtube. Tammy is that beautiful lady on the cover of the LP.

I liked "Listen Here" from the very first note, I'll have to get it. Red Garland was unforgettable on all those things he did with Miles, I have most of them.

How can I stay away with guys like you still hanging around.
Actusreus, it's difficult to decide, which is most intoxicating; her beauty, or her voice, I close my eyes and allow my imagination to be intoxicated by both.
