music, thoughts, books, dreams, more

Just my world of dreams, music and thoughts. Author of two books, one a novel of Love stories set in Framingham, Mass, Secrets of the Heart the 2nd book an autobiography of growing up in Framingham, Mass. Small Town America, Framingham My generation was the first teenage generation, that was when the word was coined. Ours was the generation that started cruising through town and to the drive in theater and drive in restaurant. In our area, Ernie Kampersal,from Holliston, drove his bucking car through town, picking up girls. It rose in the air, like a stallion! We went to the soda shops and played the juke boxes. It was a different town, a different time, and it belonged to us!

Frank Sinatra CASTLE ROCK great uptempo Swing Jiver Harry James Orchestra

this gets to me, Harry James and Frank Sinatra, great tempo and combo of sounds.

Reminiscing - by James Tormé

What a difficult song to sing!  Great job.  I was thinking as I listened, that his voice is similar to Vic Damone, and wondering how he would sound reviving some of Vic Damones big hits!

The Operating Room of the Future - InSightec - Dr. Kobi Vortman Technion...

Do we want to send expensive war machines like tanks and planes to Egypt, as we are doing...to a country that is basically lawless right now....or do we want to invest in the future for the people of the world!

Vic Damone - Just Say I Love Her

Another lovely ballad by Vic Damone.

Vic Damone - You're Breaking My Heart

Vic Damone had a great career, and a light refreshing type voice, along with good looks.  It is fun to recall his music, hope you enjoy it too!

David Sanborn & Al Jarreau - Since I Fell For You (live, 1985)

And the instrument wails, and wails calling for a voice to soften the wail...creative , exciting, punctuating, emotive!

"Since I Fell for You" Lenny Welch

a favorite back again....

Duke Ellington: Things ain't what they used to be

I love this arrangement it is rich with full chords at the start, a mix of sounds as it progresses, then soloist...rich sounds...isn't it great!  Talk about a great painting, what a sound painting this is!
