Stanley Jordan. Yep.
We watched him play at a local venue last night. If you haven’t heard him play (Imeem playlist), or just have a moment, give yourself the gift of sound today. He’s traveling in support of his new album – State of Nature. They played improv jazz, Bethoven and even a little Mozart. If you have a chance, don’t miss this show. After all the polite people applauded, and left, he played this song – The Lady in my Life.
Who won last weeks Unconscious Mutterings?? I laughed out loud when I saw todays winner because, like Stanley Jordan, the winner is the Walking Mark – a force of nature in his own right.
What’s in the prize bag? A signed copy of the Fey, a signed copy of Denver Cereal and a jar of honey.
How do you play? Play unconscious mutterings, of course! Just leave your answers to the word prompts (created by Luna Nina) in the comments. This is positively my favorite game. I love it when we all play. Stop back midweek. You’ll see what I mean.
