Sometimes..........just sometimes.

Doing some chores around the flat earlier today and, as per usual, I put on some music to keep me company. What was maybe not quite so usual was that I dug up an old Miles Davis compilation CD. And then THIS came on.

I'd completely forgotten that I had this track.

Sometimes life gives you a gem of a boost. Happy days😎

Nice! 👍 A classic.

One of musical gems in this same genre of music that gets me bopping along while doing chores is Chameleon (Herbie Hancock). The first five minutes of that song gets me everytime.

@Scribbles OMG!!!!! Can I give you a thousand hearts for mentioning Chameleon by Herbie Hancock 🤩😍🥰

A few years ago, the Three Musketeers (me and my two best mates that I've told you about numerous times) had convened at at the home of one of the trio. After a really, really heavy night of imbibing various beverages, I crashed out on the sofa. The next morning there I was, still languishing in my alcohol induced stupor when this track came on the stereo. I lay there letting the opening few seconds wash over me. My toes were twitching to the base line......that was about all that I could manage. I then uttered the words that went down in Musketeers history as the daftest thing that I'd ever said.

"This is really cool. What is it?"

I think that, had my mates been in a better condition themselves, they would have picked me up and thrown me out of the house🤣🤣🤣

PS I'm actually playing it as I type😎

@room101 🤣 Glad you know this one. I'm not surprised you do.

Very very cool. We should talk jazz funk sometime.
It is cool and smooth. Question is how can you clean with such soft, soulful music? I need something loud and active and energetic. Gotta take those spiders outside carefully if it is warm enough. Gotta vacuum dust webs. Move furniture. What is your secret? Or do you clean with GLOVES on? Egads. Tell me you are not a weirdo?

@PoetryNEmotion Can I suggest that you listen to it again. Solid funk beat and rhythm. Fast enough to dance to and slow enough to clean to🤷‍♂️

"CD"??? That's those little round shiny things, right?? 😚
@sarabee1995 It was amazing when we discovered cassette tapes ! Music was suddenly portable with our Walkman ! 😄😉

@sarabee1995 Ah, the world of instant gratification. Never been my thing and not likely to ever be my thing. I like the ritual, the building of expectation.................and then.................boom. There it is!

@bijouxbroussard I had one of those yellow ones that were water proof (maybe splash proof is a better term idk). Still miss that bloody thing. Don't miss the hours spent untangling cassette tapes 😂😂😂
