Last week when I was searching for some new blues I was giving several albums a quick to see if they’d be something I’d like. One of the albums was from a blues artist I was unfamiliar with Tyler Morris. I put on his latest release Living in the Shadows. I only needed to hear a few minutes of the opening track “Movin’On” to know that this album and guitarist would appeal to me!
So once again in accordance with my new blog schedule I am way behind! I was supposed to write a post about the prog album that I had picked on Tuesday. The problem is I didn’t pick a prog album on Tuesday! So what I did yesterday was pick a prog album to be the soundtrack of my run. It’s Nostalgia for Infinity by Hats off Gentlemen, It’s Adequate.
So according to my new blog schedule (we’ll see how long it lasts) on Monday I was to pick a blues album for the week. I would then theoretically listen to it for two days and write about it on Thursday. ( So now I’m already ab few days behind lol) The album I chose was Ordinary Madness the latest album from Blues guitarist Walter Trout. It has been the soundtrack for my last two runs. It is one of the reasons that both of those runs have been outstanding. The other reason is the weather, which actually have more to do with them being good runs, but not by much!

Ok so I am not a dog person, we have always had cats. Having said that, Alex Kava’s Ryder Creed series makes me realize how many cool things dogs can do that cats can’t or won’t do! Hidden creed is book number 41 for the year. It is the sixth book in the series and may be the best yet!
Back in the 60s there was a time when all genres appeared together on the pop charts. You might listen to an instrumental by Hugh Masekela and then a tune from The Beatles. Maybe something from Smokey Robinson and the Miracles followed by a song like “Mercy,Mercy, Mercy” from Cannonball Adderley. I loved to hear all kinds of music from the radio. So I often think fondly on those days. They were days for someone with ADHD.
