Meanwhile, some vintage Woody Guthrie. Two Sides, really....
Some fine New Year's Resolutions for and by Woody Guthrie.

As described by banjo/guitar performer/teacher Joe Newberry. ("Context & Perspective")

Woody Guthrie's New Year's Resolutions, January 1, 1943.
I especially like 18, 19, 20, 25, and 31.

And a less rousing song about less uplifting thoughts the next year:

Cocaine Blues (1944)

Note: Woody Guthrie was a singer-songwriter known for politics (pro-socialism, anti-fascism) and music;
He wrote "This Land is Your Land" as an alternative to "God Bless America".

A bit early for Christmas time (this was a Christmas Special in 1979)... But so special, any time.

Symphony In Blue (1979 Xmas Special)

Kate Bush is just pure joy and masterful musicianship, as some say, "a legend in her time" - with the voice of an angel, and a presence and music to match. Another to add to the greatest "Blue" songs, along with Joni Mitchell.

Thank you Mary Poppins!

Something from the blues/soul/ballad/vocalist department. 🎶🎤

From a friend who saw her in Nice, FR, stated well:

A phenomenon that evokes as much Tina Turner as Chaka Khan or Billie Holliday. She is considered by many to be the new soul diva. Released in September 2021, her debut album was critically acclaimed. In full European tour, the American singer Lady Blackbird made a remarkable stopover in Nice...

Jim Seals, of soft rock duo Seals and Crofts, dies aged 80

The lead vocalist of the pair known for 1970s hits like Summer Breeze and Diamond Girl has died

JAMES EUGENE "JIM" SEALS ⭐️

(17 October 1941 – 06 June 2022)

FOREVER IN OUR HEARTS ❤️

~ Rest In Eternal Peace ~

“This is a hard one on so many levels as this is a musical era passing for me,” said musician and colleague John Ford Coley on Facebook. “And it will never pass this way again, as his song said. He belonged to a group that was one of a kind. I am very sad over this but I have some of the best memories of all of us together. Rest In Peace Jimmy.”

Together with Dash Crofts, Seals helped define soft rock in the 1970s. Their first major hit was Summer Breeze in 1972, selling over a million copies. The next year saw the release of Diamond Girl which was also a hit, making it to No 4 in the US.

You will always live in our hearts ~ Your beautiful voice and music will be with us eternally ✨
