Tuesday, February 21, 2012Spenser SoundtrackI've been listening to a lot of Carmen McRae lately after a high recommendation by Spenser and Hawk in "Potshot." McRae recorded with some my favorites: Dave Brubeck, Louis Armstrong, and Count Basie to only name a few. Pour yourself a tall Scotch over ice, kick off your shoes, and listen to one of her memorable performances of "Round Midnight."

And as an author with a lot scrutiny these days, I greatly appreciated what Rick had to say on the subject. Also check out this great clip of one of RBP's favorite singers, Anita O'Day. Like everything RBP appreciated -- from baseball to jazz to great beer -- the song resonates with class. Wednesday, February 1, 2012Pistol AnniesI've been playing the hell out of this album from Nashville super group -- Pistol Annies. Miranda Lambert, Ashley Monroe, and Angaleena Presley. Like most people, I've been pretty disenchanted with the sorry state of country music these days. This is a throwback to Loretta Lynn and Tammy Wynette. Highly recommended.
