So much going on, and yet I find myself constantly pressed for time. So here is a quick and dirty, non-complete run down of some things which have crossed my mind, my desk or my social media filters....
1. RIP Patty Andrews - the last surviving member of the Andrews Sisters.
2. The Great American Novel have released a new single...
3. Couch by Couchwest is about a month and a half away. Bands: Submit your videos to Couch by Couchwest - "Where the beer is cheaper and the only hipster is you."
Okay - Blah... the weekend went too fast, but here we go into the week:
A mixed bag of treats this morning. A little something for almost everyone? Maybe...
First up with have the first solo hit single by A Tribe Called Quest rapper Q-Tip.. Vivrant Thing was released in 1999 on the first Violator compilation.
We jump ahead to April of 2012, and we have a track off a Mexican Summer sampler. Do What I Came To Do is by San Francisco Indie band The Fresh and Onlys. You can grab Stash Rituals: Mexican Summer/Software Spring 2012 sampler for free from Amazon:
Shawn Mullins is up next with California - a track off his 2010 album Light You Up. It's a fresh take on the cool, classic California sound.
And finally, a song for those lonely nights that turn into lonelier mornings. The song was introduced on Frank Sinatra's classic 1955 album, In the Wee Small Hours. The song was written by David Mann and Bob Hilliard and is called, In the Wee Small Hours of the Morning.
