Provocative Fashion, super Piano people

Interesting how so many cultural bits are kind of wrapped together. Rather like a delicious somewhat sophisticated recipe. Fashions of design great ones like Jacobs and Lui sort of remind one of sparkling, mystery-laden good piano or perhaps I should say the mod term, keyboard artists whose works sort of engulf one. What I'm coming around to is the fact many sets of grand vibes were going in the old cranium today. Kickin' good styles from mainstream jazz, tickle the ivories guys like Teddy Wilson, Duke Ellington, Billy Taylor and Earl Hines. I was giving a listen to these fellas and well it was such a happy, exuberant sounds trip. It rained like crazy late today but it didn't bug me cause I was chillin' and diggin' the pianos. Yeah, the big jazz piano folks can put a lot of great get up and go in your system. Hey, folks and imaginative fashions are all ingredients of a big, vibrant life. True stuff... this thing we call life is a grand musical gift.

Atlanta fashion's groovin' SWING

Cavorting around all over Atlanta neighborhoods can be a whole lot of fun. In this beautiful time of the year one of the real good times is watching the very fetching sophisticated new fashions showing up. There is nothing quite like having some grand fun experiences enjoying the spots in Atlanta's Buckhead and Midtown places especially. Good seafood, really creatively offered steaks and listening to some elegant jazz sounds from singers like Mr. Frank Sinatra and Mr. Tony Bennett are so appetizing during this shiny, so sparkling season of the year. The so heady and fantastic delightfulness of invigorating Atlanta fashion good time scenes can be so packed full of fun. This vivacious urban big wonderland called Atlanta is still swinging, just like the scat singing of the immortal, Ella F.

Atlanta, UGA, Sinatra, Fashion, Good Life

Today, the one known as me got back into the jazz life's somewhat mainstream. I got really happy listening to the beautiful chords of the great tenor saxophone men, the immortal John Coltrane and Stan Getz, the ballad master musical painter. The sexy, sleek magnifico tenor sounds were so wrapped up in a pulsing, pleasing passionate package that it was a walk on the great side, a monumental trip into the delicious world of musical art. Also, I got into listening to the timeless fascinating totality of sound that is the elegant artist Mr. Sinatra of the famed whoop it so high NYC area and of course a conveyor of good times just about all over this big land. Also, it hit me how cool and at times scalding hot music can so heavily influence the fashion world. It is amazing how many times, the power folks in the design world came up with joltin' just right clothing looks because of the highly influential conundrum that is the sparkling set of musical libations coming from the total tonic musical magic that is blues, jazz, gospel and the like. When I was a young guy I got a kick watching the wistful quickly changing bright colors of good fashion over at the University of Georgia, but then later when I came to the wowee land of metro Atlanta I was also knocked out by the great total look fashions of this so cool, boppin' and invigorating place. Let's all have super good times today. To paraphrase old Rabelais, enjoy man, enjoy.

Nice Writing

THE GOOD terse writing of Ernest Hemingway is a real joy.  He does not use too many adjectives.  His 'Torrents' is a fine tome.
