Of elephants and jumpin' West Coast jazz
Lots of Japanese cooking smells today. There is something quite different about those particular aromas. Decided to kick things in gear with the wild sounds of esoteric, rather airy West Coast jazz. Listening to Hampton Hawes on piano and two mighty fine horn men, Wardell Gray on tenor saxophone and the really so cool, Art Pepper on alto. The rendition of Gray's interpretation of 'Pennies from Heaven" is a virtual knockout of buoyant jazz craft. The psychic many brand levels of jazz assist the brain in forging new modes of thought breakthroughs. It is so brutally hot today. Humidity is way up. Feels like south Florida. Bought gas today and many pumps had no petrol. Like many brains pumps at stations need a real pick me up. too. I kept staring at a favorite print of mind today. A nice one of a huge classic elephant just crashing passionately through the moist, so madly thick underbrushes. Kind of like the cunning brilliant brush work of old S. Manne on drums. Hope Saturday is so oh lord yeah, great for all.
