Song of the Day – ‘One For My Baby’

  At this point, I’ve been around the block enough times, that I don’t do as many of the ‘For Your Consideration’ screenings as I used to. This one intrigued me just because I’m a fan of the brother and his show. Then (after the fact) I heard he performed my theme song after the […]

Song of the Day – ‘Crazy Love’

  Plenty of feelings about what happened over the weekend as you can imagine. But I’ve been channeling that passion into something else, which you’ll see and hear about in due time… Today, music.  Always liked this song; forgot McKnight covered it. Enjoy!  

Song of the Day – ‘Overjoyed’

  Finished compiling my latest writing soundtrack.  Found a place for one of my all time favorites. Not the only songwriter whose songs you can just read the lyrics as a great poem, but Stevie might outrank them all. Enjoy!

Song of the Day – ‘Slow Dancing in a Burning Room’

  Despite having ample time to plan, won’t make it down to Inglewood tonight to see John perform. I felt a little better about this when I remembered I checked off seeing Mayer perform live years ago.  Playing my all time favorite song in fact, at Mike’s funeral.  Also the last time I recall having […]

RIP Jim Vance

  The weekend got off to a sad start when I saw Jim Vance died. Reading all the tributes from both DC area friends and journalists, it’s easy to see this was a man who was beloved.  As Bomani said, we should all hope that when we’ve passed on, people come out of the woodworks […]

Song of the Day – ‘Lately’

  I have no idea why this one jumped in my mind this morning, but it did. I could say I’m ashamed I didn’t know for years that this was a (fantastic) cover of a Stevie song, but guys, I’m not that old. Enjoy!
