That guy gives me serious Chidi belly.

Album cover of Bill Evans Interplay showing 6 black, white, blue, and red designs. Under the title and list of musicians it says: For the first time, the great jazz pianist is heard in a new context - as leader of a group larger than his customary trio. Evans' Interplay with his four colleagues here - each of them one of Bill's personal favorites on his instrument - creates a most unusual and remarkable album

Bill mixing it up in 1962 with a quintet instead of his usual trio. Lovely recording #jazz #vinyl #music

Exactly! Or churns their own butter from the cows out back.

I first heard this song as a kid in the 60s while my parents were watching The Girl Can't Help It on tv. I was mesmerized by her. Still am.

I know you can't be everywhere (like Johnny Cash 🤪) but Phoenix loves you.

One of our favorite phrases whilst sitting at a bar, tasting through various cocktails with housemade infusions and bitters is: Just because you can, doesn't mean you should.
There are specialized suppliers for a reason.

We lucked out and got an early morning Abbey Unlocked tour. Just 10 of us had the whole place to ourselves with the staff guide for 90mins before opening. Really a fascinating place, but so were so many places in London!

Westminster Abbey

Post a pic you took, no context, to bring some zen to the feed

And the release of the full Epstein files

Well done!

I was living in a dorm at ULowell for '78. It was madness in all the best ways.

Our AZ Republicans are terrible people.

You know what you like and that's awesome.

Thanks!

Haven't heard of them! It's a long haul from our place. Good stuff?

Indeed!

Indeed. Just complaining to the ether. T Cook's did it right back in the day, maybe they still do. But man.

Nice looking clay! And that honey! Brilliant.

Why is it that many Phoenix metro restaurants serve branzino skin-side down and don't even bother trying to crispy it up? Today's place featured a Josper charcoal grill yet the skin was flabby and placed down on sauced tomatoes.

Our town library does so much more than provide amazing books. It's a safe space for anyone to get out of the AZ heat. They provide free English language learning classes and Talk Time discussion groups. They offer free use of sewing machines, 3D printers, laser cutters, and a music recording lab. ❤️

She sure did hold her own with Jeff Beck on his final tour.

We have a couple of places in AZ that serve these. Some days for lunch I'd just eat the pork outside of the bun and be full!

I used to get these at Salem Willows.

Wtf is right! Holy shit.

Videos for Don Kirschner's Rock Concert. The last night, they opened the hanger doors and let us take a peek.

Just last week, I saw this bootleg for sale documenting that rehearsal. So I'm reliving 1976 right now, thank you very much. /

After a couple of nights, road crew saw us, read us the riot act about not bothering anyone, and let us stay. No sir, we'll be quite sir, want a hit of this? Cool.
Years latter with all the world's data at your fingertips, I learn that they were full dress rehearsals and video shoots. 5/

Next thing you know, a group of us are holding up the chain link and scooting under. Get shot? Arrested? Who tf cared! This was KISS. For the next 3-4 nights, we'd listen outside the quonset hut they were practicing in. We could see the lights flashing, the bursts of flame. It was magical. 4/
