Favoriting JA In The AM with John Allen: Playlist from June 2, 2023 Favoriting

John Allen's avatar View John Allen's profile Favoriting

"I listened yesterday. It's no reflection on you but I could'nt see where you were going or what you were going for. This early seventies thing did'nt get noticed the first time and you talk about friends of like Dealney and Bonnie who had records out like we're supposed to remember who they are. Then you play this long winded free jazz stuff that really grates on my nerves. And that noise without a beat and sounds like someones being pinched. Then you play a reggae song, I think you called it Dub, to what, be cool? You seem to really fetishize the whole folk thing too which is obnoxious to us who don't even care. I liked it when you played that punk song though. I like Joe Belock a lot." (Visit homepage.)

Karl Ward:

Something about the ABBA, every time he hears ABBA it puts Don in a restless half-sleep. The effects last for hours. 2 AM, 3 AM, 4. Finally sleep comes, and a dream. Another bass anxiety dream. In this dream, it's not Mingus--it's Jaco. But Jaco puts the fretless on a stand and gets behind the kit. And he's absolutely tearing it up, playing these incredible fills that somehow always comes back in time. Fills becomes an epic solo. There's a gong. Jaco keeps giving Don cues to go back into the song, but every time Don steps toward the mic stand the lyrics disappear from his mind. Where the lyrics were, there are schools of fish, intertwining, and the sound of three guitars playing an intricate harmony. Wait. One of the guitars is out of tune. The lyrics come back into Don's mind. But Jaco is gone. The mic stand is gone. It's only Don, and fish.

In Jersey City's heart, where the streets hum,
The spirit of jazz dances on its drum.
Beneath the neon lights and smoky air,
I wandered through the beats, feeling aware.

The clinking glasses, the sax's wail,
Abba's echoes riding the breeze's trail.
A fusion of rhythm, a blend of the old,
A tapestry woven, stories yet untold.

The track is taken from her first album recorded when she was 19 or 20. It's brilliant. Her second record is much more of a fusion record, and really good. Thereafter, she entered the R&B-disco-pop arena and kicked ass. She's a multi-instrumental genius.

Hard times, and executor duties linger for a long time. I know how hard this time is. Please remember to take time for you to feel comfort, even if it's just a walk in the park or garden. Struggling here with seemingly daily things going wrong, but Handy has assured me that this happens in his home as well. It's been well over a year since my father died, and my siblings named as executors are still struggling with it. I remind myself that that is what my father wanted. Frankly, inheriting any money feels wrong, like profiting.

Apparently, I am the responsible child, the middle one. Thank you all for your kind words. I have pretty explicit instructions from her about her obituary. I think waiting to write it allows us to focus on the gain from knowing her and being her children instead of writing it quickly which might prompt us to focus on the loss as that is the most immediate effect. Thank you again for your kindness.

I had to write the obit with one of my sisters back in February. I first did the bare bones structuring of dates, places, names. Then she'd take a go, I'd take a stab, and then it was what it was, with a little bit of Yeats to round out. We probably started on it too early, so I think your approach is responsible and well reasoned. Good for you.

My Dad used to have this big stash of fireworks he kept in his bedroom closet. After he passed, my mother put a shoebox containing his ashes in the same closet. Several years later, I was back at Mom's house for 4th of July and thought - "I wonder if that box of fireworks is still in that closet?" - I was going to shoot off whatever was left, in my father's memory - so I go upstairs to check the closet. I opened the shoebox expecting to see a few roman candles or something, but no... just some gray gravely powder... I went back downstairs, Mom asked "Did you find the fireworks?" and I just replied "No, we must have used them up years ago". (I don't think I ever told anyone this story before)
