Jazzman

Heard this song on the radio the other day and thought of you, Jim.

Jazzman
Carole King

Left me, won't you lift me above the old routine;
Make it nice, play it clean jazzman.

1. When the jazzman's testifyin' a faithless man believes
he can sing you into paradise or bring you to your knees.
It's a gospel kind of feelin', a touch of Georgia slide,
a song of pure revival and a style that's sanctified.

Jazzman take my blues away; make my pain
the same as yours with every change you play.
Jazzman, oh jazzman.

When the jazzman's signifyin', and the band is windin' low.
It's the late night side of morning in the darkness of his soul.
He can fill a room with sadness as he fills his horn with tears.
He can cry like a fallen angel when risin' time is near.

Jazzman take my blues away; make my pain
the same as yours with every change you play.
Oh lift me, won't you lift me with ev'ry turn around.
Play it sweetly, take me down, oh jazzman.

Another thing....

Healthy Interlude

Singing a few songs may be the perfect accompaniment to a healthy lifestyle.
In one study, participating in a choral group proved to be a big boon to emotional well-being. Singing in the group produced positive feelings and left group members spiritually uplifted. If public forums aren't your gig, reap the health rewards of singing by crooning tunes in the shower or in your car.

Thanks Cass....that was a really sweet thing to post.

And it's true about the whole musical thing. I've been in a ch0orus for about 5 years now and I'm wonderfully stable!

You're so welcome, J.

That Healthy Interlude thing is something that appeared in my email. I get some kind of health tip everyday. I saved this one and wanted to pass it along to someone who would understand.
