music of the moment, November 12, 2004

These songs have been on my mind lately, in no particular order. Selections will open with Windows Media Player.

Gato Barbieri -- Poinciana (Song Of The Tree)
No doubt of what kind of tree it is: polyester! But it is one awesome song. You need the sample from Amazon to do it justice. There is but one Gato Barbieri. Listen

Marilyn Scott -- Here's That Rainy Day
Who? I didn’t know her before this song either. Now for something a little more modern. Marilyn Scott’s style harkens back to that ‘70s sound, but she’s not at all dated on this track. Sublime. Listen

Slum Village -- Count The Ways - (with Dwele)
A little silly, but it rocks. Listen

Carly Simon -- Tranquillo (Melt My Heart)
Who knew she had an ass-shaking song? Very 1978. Listen

Mark Farina -- De La Bass - (Vocal, with Raw Instinct)
To the bass, y’all! I like the Mushroom Jazz series this album is from. Listen
