I'm currently listening to...

Great song and a good cover version of it. Would've preferred the original version, but this is still great fun. Drummer earned her beer for sure.



Found it (cover of the Japanese version). This is even better. Same drummer with different musicians.

 
There was a bio on Ella Fitzgerald recently on PBS, it was interesting, and kind of sad that her personal life was such a mess. Philistine that I am, I most remember her "Is it live, or is it Memorex?" commercials, but if you've ever heard one of her scat recordings, it is just amazing - somehow, she draws you in and charms your socks off. Her scats were very impromptu, so you wouldn't have anyone covering an Ella Fitzgerald scat, but listen to this:



 
Mary's Prayer - as a college student, I heard this all the time, but it doesn't have a easily identifiable title, and I don't know, I just never wrote it down, lol.

Bev must be beside herself, I hope you left a cassette playing on auto turnover ? :p
She doesn't know yet, ive not had the heart to tell her, saying goodbye will be so hard it's probably best i disappear.

I have considered leaving the bath tap on when I leave or maybe some kippers under the floorboards but I think the most appropriate thing I can get away with is a leaving party for the whole street - she wont need an invite as she is always listening :)
 
When 3Dice had its own casino software, they had a feature for music to play by, lol - one of the settings was a channel, Di.fm - I never forgot how great their mixes were, and recently, I signed up as a subscriber. And it's still just as amazing as ever - here are a couple of beautiful melodies from the Lounge channel:





And a couple from their Latin House channel:
