Can we change the date of our next music club?

Gina Turner is going to be in town March 20-27, can we move MC from March 10 to March 25? Pat and I would be happy to host. Theme is Mind the Gap, so a chance to fill in your perceived musical gaps on our play list.

Live show music club anyone?

Idiot Post

I was reminded (THANKS TWITTER!) that Blood on the Tracks was released 41 years ago yesterday. Does Music Club have any idea how much this album means to me? Do I discuss it? Probably not cuz I'm Non-stop (hee hee) about Hamilton. If I was to talk about music and the talk wasn't blah blah blah Hamilton and blah blah blah Drake, well then maybe Blood on the Tracks would come up. My all-time favorite Dylan track is on this album and it's not Tangled Up in Blue. No, it's the sweet little thing that finishes side 1 - You're Going to Make Me Lonesome When You Go. I LOVE a sad song disguised as a happy song. I do skip Lily, Rosemary and the Jack of Hearts from time to time cuz it's long and a story song and I'm too excited about diving into the sorrow and beauty of If You See Her, Say Hello. I do have a memory that maybe I sang Tangled Up in Blue once at karaoke. I'm sorry. Thanks Robert Zimmerman for gifting me with Blood on the Tracks. You are the man. Jim, you will know this when you finish Chronicles Vol. 1.

2015 - It was a year

Year End Music Club

Are we ready to reminisce about 2015? Want to meet in blustery cold January? Perhaps the 14th or 21st? Have a happy new year everyone!

Spotify Year in Music

Spotify has this pretty dope "year in music" feature. https://yearinmusic.spotify.com/ My results were a bit of a yawn (my most played album was the Hamilton cast recording and my most played artist was Kendrick Lamar) except that I kicked off 2015 with "Still Feeling Blue" by Gram Parsons. I did not realize my January started off so January-ish! Happy Holiday music club!

I'm going to be in the room where it happens

The Results are in! (Version 2)

"High School Reunion (ours, not yours)"

See below.

HAMILTON

Can I sell this concept? A music club devoted to the musical "Hamilton"? Listen to the soundtrack a few times (or on repeat if you are me). You don't have to get back to me right away, just mull it over. Plus Pat, you know a lot about presidents!

Ahem...Jamiroquai hat, BABY!

So.......my recollection is that Greg & J are coming up with the next Music Club theme.  I have not seen any such theme as of yet.

Without a theme to guide me I will tend to wander into the avant garde, and let's face it, nobody wants that.
