So last Sat night as I’m walking to 900 Wall for dinner this old guy jazz duo (one alto sax and one guitar) were playing Girl from Impanema and I yelled out Stan Getz ! Mrs Snow was embarrassed.
Recommend Stalin some dirty, rainy night in Lynnwood jazz

I listen to that album at least a couple times per month
@DerekJohnson
a horror show
Joe Pass's take on Django is essential @DerekJohnson
Ohhh that's good
Yella only knows good music.
This is one of the guiding principles of my life
#MeToo
50% of may grandparents were alcoholics - albeit functional ones.
I trust myself to never go full blown alcoholic. I don't trust myself to not throw back 3 - 4 cold ones on the porch every sunny summer day (there are a lot of them).
It's hard; it's a process.

My dad was a highly functioning alcoholic like a lot of WW2 vets. I didn't even realize it until I was a teenager. Drinking and dinner parties and playing bridge were staples of the 60s in our house
He wasn't mean he was withdrawn
In my 20s I was a problem drinker. And mean. I moderated.
For some people, moderation is a better course of action vs total abstention.
Well @DerekJohnson if this isn't some dirty rainy night in you Lynnwood studio apartment jazz, I don't know what is.
You can almost see the smog
