    Enjoying this one very much! Quick turnaround at Amazon. Thanks for the recommendation. Might comment again upon further listenings.

    Had the great pleasure of hearing Joe Henderson perform music from this album at the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival quite a few years ago. Great album!

    Yes, I love BOTH of those releases of Afro-Sambas, 66 and 90! Love Tristeza on Guitar too! It's got more "toughness" to it than some of the other albums. I am going to try to find "le Couer de Baden Powell" now. Thanks for the post.

    Thanks! I am in the minority, at least where DC baseball is discussed in this area. I vehemently dislike the curly W that the team adopted for today. Now that I know how little time it was in use with the woeful expansion Senators who split town and became the Texas Rangers, it makes even less sense that it was adopted for today's team, to me! I wish it were an interlocking DC, actually. For our beloved Columbian District! YMMV.

    tartine78, is this the version you recommend? I would have PMd you but I think others in the discussion might be interested too. Where would I find this version of Canto de Ossanha I would love to hear? https://www.amazon.com/Quarteto-Em-Cy/dp/B000RY42V2

    Is this a Washington Senators cap from the 1950s? Blue cap, red W with white border.

    Agree with tartine78 about Baden Powell. I am no expert but along with his recommendations I am partial to this album Samba Triste on French label Accord. https://www.music-bazaar.com/spanish-music/album/727281/Samba-Triste/ See how you like THIS album's version of Canto de Ossanha. My favorite!

    After the election I listened to Mac Wiseman doing the Albert E. Brumley song By the Side of the Road. Needed a positive message. Chorus: I'd rather live by the side of the road And try to point souls to the blessed abode Than to be a king or a millionaire And live in mansions in bright array I'd rather do a neighborly deed For a traveler here or a friend in need I'd rather live by the side of the road And help some pilgrim along life's way

    He wrote excellent liner notes for John Fahey's lp on Reprise, Of Rivers and Religion! Don't know if he wrote liner notes on albums from other genres very much. Well, there's a little bit of a Dixieland band on a few of the songs on this album, but that wasn't his focus.

    This is a fantastic album. Rusty Kershaw, Now and Then. Can't believe I didn't hear it til this week! Costly on Amazon but not at all on iTunes. Neil Young, Ben Keith, Art Neville, et al.

    Hope it was a good one!

    My area used to have a rockabilly/swing band named Grandsons of the Pioneers til they were sued for trademark infringement. They changed their name to The Grandsons.

    Andrew Keen, The Internet is Not the Answer (Saw him interviewed recently on C-Span by Brian Lamb. Looks interesting).

    DC could use Alex Gordon. I hope we make a good offer.

    Works fine (music playback) now that I updated to Windows 10. Crossing my fingers.

    Good point. MOY didn't help Matt Williams in Washington much.

    It would be one thing if ISIL pulled a Pearl Harbor type attack on the French Navy, wiping them out in port. Instead the first thing they did in France was kill people attending a soccer match, a concert, eating at a restaurant. I do see a difference there between an act of war and out and out terror on the civilian population. That doesn't make it any easier to respond, I know. It must be met with counter-violence of some kind, unfortunately with terrible consequences for the civilian population in Syria where ISIL hides among and dares to call itself the state. IMO.

    Is the MLB cap for qualifying offers (15.8 mil?) too low or something? Seems like somebody would have accepted it by now. Wieters of Baltimore just did the same thing. Good luck to Simmons in LA! Glad he's out of the NL east. He's been a real menace. The best defensive shortstop maybe since Vizquel.
