WHO AM I TO ARGUE?

Just look at that would you? Does it get better? The one-two punch package/product combo. Fucking amazing. That's the kind of mood I'm in right now. I got on a Miles tack tonight, that started with listening to eden ahbez's stuff on YouTube. Trippy dude there. That lead to Miles Davis's version of "Nature Boy" (which is, as one would expect, awesome). Then I remembered that Rubber City Review recently had a post with the host's favorite ten Miles Davis songs with the reasons why and the stories behind them.


That's not even the best part. The guy is a fiend, and he describes his path to fiendom and really lets you know exactly where he's coming from. Way more studied than me, or you for that matter. He's the record shop guy, 2016. He just posted snippets of the songs, but they're all roughly three minutes long, where some of the songs are over ten minutes long in their entirety. But there's ten of them and a lot of info, laid out by someone who knows more about Miles Davis than you or I. Maybe not you. Let me know when you post your top ten.

Thanks much Tom G. Name's Tim Quine... cousin of Robert, uncle of Dan Auerbach. Which only means I have some strange genetic tendency to endlessly obsess about my music heroes. Much like you, in fact, which is why I really dig your blog (you can find a link to it on my site). Keep doing what you do.
