Magic Moments in listening

More than  thirty years ago, back in about 1980 or so I owned IMF 30's and an Arcam Integrated Amplifier.
During the Blizzard of those years, I listened to Kenny Loggins a bit. No drugs, but a bit of Kentucky Bourbon, I listened to Angiligue, a song on one of Kenny's popular albums. The mix was a cross between magic and studio, showing the best of imagination and audiophile wishes. The result was incredible, enduring and fun for all who listened to this. I listened intently, without agenda, and fell in love during that time, loving both the mix, AND Kenny, who was literally magic to me during that winter. This music was so revealing and wonderful, I've lived in those moments for years. Thanks to Loggins and his magical mixers for this wonderful work... I'll never forget.

The last few days I've been cruising YouTube... one of my favorite things to do... finding old video performances of Miles, Ella, Chet, Thelonius, Paul Desmond.... so many video/audio performances it's amazing. Recently, off jazz, I started watching ABBA. Their melodies were just so startlingly good, and of course the girls are so beautiful it doesn't distract.... well maybe a little, lol. Fernando... so many beautiful songs, with exciting beat/rhythms behind... ballads with a beat, unusual and FUN. Anyway, just another coal on the fire.

"These Days" - Jackson Browne, Tom Rush, Don Henley? I first heard the Tom Rush cover which preceded the Jackson Browne original version by 3 years. Go figure. Anyway, great song & Jackson has defined a large part of my outlook on life...not that I'm depressive or anything.
