Sunday 

Good morning! It's 8:27 and 47 degrees at the moment. Another nice day We had a little bit of everything yesterday in the way of weather. Curious to see if today follows suit. Life in the Central Plains- gotta love it!  Just glad I don't live in the Northern Plains, where you'd see an even wider swath.

This is normally too early for me by at least an hour... Good old Daylight Savings Time. We "give back" that hour come the Spring, but for now I'll take it.

Seems like it's been forever since I posted anything. To those who check in and actually read this stuff, sorry about that. Actually, I started to write on a couple occasions, but they never made it out of draft status. So here goes something or other. 

Music news. I have an album put together of all straight-ahead jazz, which I'm hoping to release sometime soon. It even has a couple of guest artists. Mostly vintage, but with a few newer things in there as well.

Gotta get all the tracks equalized as far as levels first though. There's a little too much variance as it is. Kinda like the weather in the Plains States.. The only thing I have on my computer is something called a Levelator, which is more designed for spoken presentations. So I'll have to go see someone who has the capabilities to even out the cuts. Coming soon!

I also have some plans to make a solo guitar album, which will also be done at someone else's studio. This, like the straight-ahead album, will be available as a CD. I've had this in mind for years, so I have plenty of material. So I'll get going on that in this coming year. We'll just have to see what we get for Winter as far as when I get started.

The YouTube page is alive and well, and now up to a whopping 193 subscribers. One of my newest subscribers is a young guy in maybe his 20s who's working on jazz guitar. He posts stuff like Sunny and Blue Bossa. He had one subscriber, so I was able to double that for him. We help each other..

Well that's all the news I've got for you for now. Everything else is old guy news. And the news in general, which is pretty crazy with MIdterm Mania going on, and the clowncar of candidates. So thanks for stopping in and reading. Happy Sunday to you! For now, ich bin outa here. Wordle and Lumosity await. Later for now.
