 I can't easily explain why I came to be listening to a Dixieland band in Belgrade,  Serbia....

They're pretty good.   I like the piano break.

John Lennon was born today. 35 years later, his son Sean was born.

The artist's job is not to succumb to despair but to find an antidote for the emptiness of existence.

He sure looks like dad,  too.   Calendar coincidences are fun - Darwin and Lincoln born the same day and year.   

The Asia/America thing,  funny.  Boston and Kansas both averaged about six people,  so they were much less populated than I had thought.

I recall someone here had a birthday around now, possibly Josh?   If so,  congrats on another lap around the sun. 

If not,  then happy birthday Wendy Carlos,  Aaron Copland,  Johann Hummel,  Leopold Mozart and Buckwheat Zydeco.   And that lady in todays Google Doodle.  Fanny Mendelssohn.   I have heard plenty of her brothers compositions, but not sure I have heard any of hers.   Same goes for Leopold Mozart,  who was also somewhat eclipsed by a famous relative.
