Tune of the day…Keith Jarrett & Charlie Haden - My Ship. While not Charlie Haden’s final recording, it was the last time Jarrett and Haden recorded together and came out right around the time Haden passed away. A truly beautiful tune intimately played by two masters. #jazzsky youtu.be/eUuqUG6qpGk

I like to think that we pick up some wisdom when we exit this life: it’s a heartbreaking thought that the departed might be as dumb as the living. Not that I’m in any hurry to find out… 😂

Tune of the day…John Coltrane - Blue Train. You have 30 choruses of amazing blues that never gets old. The arrangement is sometimes overlooked, melody & harmonized melody with hits. Solos go from swing to doubletime feel in the drums only. Background line sparsely used. #jazzsky youtu.be/HT_Zs5FKDZE

Most of our school day is not screen time. I just wanted to put that out there.

A student gave me this as we both end our time at Hampshire College: Soviet medal, Veteran of Labor, "for long diligent work" I'd like to think I worked hard--and this award originated in 1974 during the Era of Stagnation, so that fits too 😉 How cool is that?
