Week 18: The Blues

This post isn't about fandoms/comics/x-men or anything along those lines. I chose the icon 'cause I love "Beast a.k.a. Dr. Hank McCoy" and well, he's ... blue ;) This is more of a gratitude post.

I want to thank all those people who put music on their sites for download. I get so much out of all that music! Some I like, some not so much. It's all exposure though and I love it because there are times when I fall in love! *sigh*

A while back someone made Peggy Lee's "Black Coffee" available. I listened, and although I enjoy The Blues/Slow Burn type singing it didn't strike me as great. A few weeks later I listened to it again, then again a few months down the road. And love developed. I really loved that song.

The iTunes store beckoned and "The Best of Miss Peggy Lee" is in my "Blues/Vocal" play list keeping company with Nina Simone, Billie Holliday, Ella Fitzgerald, Michael Buble, Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Etta James and Natalie Cole.

I'm grateful for the introduction to a new songstress as well as for reinvigorating my admiration of that genre of music which resulted in moving that play list into heavy rotation on the 'puter and iPod.

So thank you, very much. *smooch*
