Listening to Miles Davis on Spotify, Miles Smiles. I am amazed I can listen to the whole album
and compared to the way I searched for music, on YouTube, this is more
efficient. I enjoy listening to jazz
when I write or drive. The words are
bouncing to the rhythm and I can download this album? Are you kidding me? I came upstairs to the bedroom
I had when I was a kid, the same one I have written about so many times. I sleep well in this room. It holds some memories which I don’t dwell
on. Alright, Footprints is playing, one
of my favorites of all time. Wayne Shorter
wrote this song, and both Miles and Wayne play together till Miles takes the
lead. Is that Herbie Hancock on
piano? I drove back from Bethlehem and
was able to hear most of an NPR story about a family of illegals. The mother and her brother have been in the
US for over twenty years and have not learned English. That doesn’t disturb me as much as the
reporter interviewing her uncle. The man works 6 days a week, for less than the minimum age and has not had a vacation
for more than twenty years. This the new
servitude.
Thank you for reading this.
