42 – The Video

This is a music and video collaboration between me and my friend Robert. I wrote the song and created the music and vocals. Robert Dada (AAP Illusions) did all the video work. This song was originally inspired by the Douglas Adams “Hitchhiker’s Guide” books, but then it took a much different path. I think it came out great but I could be biased.

Imaginary Weather Report

Here’s a new song. It meets at the intersection of yacht rock avenue and hillbilly rap street, Or maybe not. But it was a lot of fun doing it. I used five vocal tracks, two guitar tracks, a bongo track, and a keyboard track. The rest is all thanks to Apple Loops. And I wrote the damn thing too. Check it out, leave a comment if you want or give it a like.

The 2024 Seattle And Bumbershoot Trip

This is our annual trip to Seattle to see the city and also for the Bumbershoot Music and Arts Festival. We’ve gone every year from 2001-2019 and now again in 2023 and 2024. Also going this year was our granddaughter Jasmine, and we also met up with our friend Margaret from Portland.

I’ll post some pictures soon, but first, here’s what we did on our trip.

The Answer Is 42

I wrote and recorded a song that is “very loosely” inspired by the Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy books. (link below, click the orange and white arrow). Mainly it refers to the ultimate answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything. Spoiler alert, the ultimate answer is 42. I took a few liberties. OK, maybe more than a few.

The Book I Read: “Zero Gravity” by Woody Allen

Zero Gravity is a collection of nineteen short humorous pieces, some previously published in the New Yorker and some specific to this book. As with his other collections of writings, there are plenty of funny moments as well as an insight here and there too. He is a gifted writer. Sometimes he can almost seem too clever for his own good. Almost. I very much enjoyed these stories, perhaps some more than others, but none were a waste of time. As with his films, all have something to offer and many are excellent.

From the Amazon review:

“Whether he’s writing about horses that paint, cars that think, the sex lives of celebrities, or how General Tso’s Chicken got its name, he is always totally original, broad yet sophisticated, acutely observant, and most important, relentlessly funny.”

If you liked his earlier books, you will like this one. If you have never read any of his books, get on it! He’s a funny, clever, and witty writer, not like anyone else. And then go see his movies when you take a break from reading!
