So this is the inaugural edition of my new blog. I have been dreaming this one up for awhile. Michael Wilson said it best when he said "what I really love is music." Well, I do. So, here I will mainly reflect on what has been an ongoing passion and hobby for most of my life.
I was raised in a home by parents who loved music. My first concert was a John Denver/Barry Manilow double billing. And thankfully my concert-going experiences have traversed an uphill path since then.
I am not quite sure exactly how I will structure this, but certainly other passions and reflections will be intertwined with my reflections and musings on music.
I am always on the lookout for new music, new inspirations and revelations in the music world. I am hopeful about the state of the music industry, although I also believe it is in a period of great transition right now. I believe that the most original music being made today is most likely not to be found on major labels. It is bands like Arcade Fire and Andrew Bird; Modest Mouse and MuteMath; Karsh Kale and Kraftwerk. I believe the best is yet to come.
I found something on YouTube the other day, at the recommendation of The Lefsetz Letter. It is a video called "Thou Shalt Always Kill. Go to YouTube and check it out, I think you will enjoy it.
