It's as though every orchid in the world bloomed at once.

I love to hear, not just read about, how music was created.

My burg celebrates Sun Ra's bday every year at a club. The musicians dress "ala ra" - and the audience can too - silly fun with good musicians.

I've been reading Kelley's bio of Monk. Nice work.
