#Music R.I.P. #JackDeJohnette Such a fantastic drummer, whose timing in hooking up with Miles Davis for 'Bitches Brew' couldn't have been better. Playing it now. #Respect, my brother.
Hear, hear!

In the House & On the Deck: 'For the Raven' (Infinite Fog Productions, 2025), the new release from Metgumbnerbone. Moody and druidic, this is one that @peterhuestis.bsky.social would like. Very Halloween-appropriate. #Music

#Music RIP #MarkVolman (1947 - 2025), co-founder of The Turtles and The Phlorescent Leech (or, Flo) and Eddie, and Mothers of Invention vocalist. 'First time I saw the Mothers, in the mid-70s, Mark and his co-conspirator Howard Kaylan were at the mike. Sing while you may!

#Books Finished 'Oblivion' (@littlebrown, 2004), the short (altho some are decidedly long) story collection by #DavidFosterWallace. Given the author, not a light read, but a compelling one. "Good Old Neon" and its abrupt ending ("Not another word."), particularly so. #Reading
