Rita Coolidge  -  "Safe In The Arms Of Time"  (2018)  first listen to new release from a legend in my musical life.  First heard Rita with Joe Cocker and Leon Russell way back when.

Classy singer, integral in the Delaney and Bonnie & Friends sound.

Saw Mac McAnally gig in Anchorage summer solstice event 

Great singer songwriter from Mississipi that I'd never heard of. 

Back home got CDs from the river. Great listening and chilling on this hot afternoon.

Not listening to anything,  since we've got serious thunder and lightning at the mo' in tropical storm North Yorks. ............ so

everything's powered down and unplugged ........................ Harrumph!!!! 

Please, no AC / DC "Thunderstruck" witticisms.

Dire Straits - Love Over Gold on vinyl. Just arrived in the mail. Sounds superb on this overcast day. The sky looks like that out the window without the lightening.

Nils Petter Molvær - Hamada

A reminder (in a good way) of an incredibly loud gig one night, here in my city.

   Iggy Pop - Lust For Life.

   Essential Iggy ...................... I'd guess this album holds so many different memories for so many different folks. 

That cover always reminds me of a young Kenny Dalglish.

Astonishing maturity. I have two or three of hers but this is the best.
