(Volume best with headphones)

I used to love this song, and I haven't heard it for years. I don't remember with what I associate it, but I danced to it all the time, and wore grooves in the vinyl. I gasped to hear it again this morning. It's a very hopeful song.

Nice piece.

Another song whose vinyl I wore down to the bare bones. Or fibers.

That hot-jazz type of style has never been my thing, although the guitarist was very good.
I accept it could be fun for the musos, much like a gym workout.

Nonetheless, I found myself enjoying it.

I listened with headphones, as aways.
Well, that track is so much more cultivated and professional, compared to my Roxy, rock'n roll, hit parade, with a Piano and all.
