Stan Getz brings the rain

July 31, 2017 — 0 Comments

WELCOME

Rooted in pop, but cultivated into a garden of wide-ranging musical interests, feeding mind and soul. The Verdant Spiral, courtesy of an XTC lyric, is a good way of describing our planet going through the seasons, with varying levels of green. Or, maybe a rolling stone that does gather green moss along the way to make things interesting. Your interpretation is likely the right one. Also Twitter, Instagram, FB! ~ Tom Conmy
