Here is a little story about my day:

I had to get up in the middle of the night to drive 3 1/2 hours to a business meeting. I threw the Bernadette (Vargas Cover) CD in my briefcase since I hadn't listened to it for over a year. Well the rental car did not have a CD player so I had to listen to radio prattle for the whole time.

Get to meeting in a bad mood. Go to lunch, and rental car battery is dead So I have to hassle with getting another one to come home. Eventually, I get another car and now I am in a really bad mood

However, this car does have a CD player. Finally I remember the Bernadette CD. Well I don't have to tell you guys....I am sure you all know what it is like to listen once again to some of your most beloved music which you have set aside for a while.

I was in heaven for the whole trip home listening to every nuiance in that work

I keep thinking about something Jonathan Schwartz had said in the liner notes to the R&H CD. SHE JUST HASN'T RECORDED ENOUGH.

Oh that there were more recorded work from such a extraordinary talent.

Since he said it so well, here are the words from Mr. Schwartz's the liner notes:

"And the songs in this woman! The G flats and the D minors, tiny little notes of music; internal tinsel that she has organized into feelings in her shows and concerts, and on her FEW RECORDINGS. Her both wicked and wrenching singing, honest and therefore penetrating; tough and therefore vulnerable; wry and therefore hilarious, is brutal, sexy, disorienting, nurturing, heartbreaking and kind."

Very well said, Jonathan.

It turned out to be a pretty good day after all

Jim.
