trip meme

tagged by the dude who quotes laurence olivier.

not much of a music freak. like i'd said. music is trip. unlike books which are staples. music is medication. cures the occasional mental atrophies.

What Music Are You Currently Grooving To?
less time for pop. jazz breakaway is recent trip. John Coltrane's Heavyweight Champion's hors d'oeuvre on the playlist. soundtrack to Antonioni's Blow Up as appropriate aperitif with Hancock on the keys. Brubeck's Time Out on the nightcap.

What, If Push Comes To Shove, Is Your All-Time Favorite Album?
many to mention, they say. but if i were to pluck one out of the bunch, would be Ornette Coleman's Science Fiction Sessions. freestyle jazz is meth for the ears.

What Was The First Record You Bought? And Where Did You Buy It?
Eraserheads' Ultraelectromagnetic Pop, methinks. could be Aladdin soundtrack back in 2nd yr HS? (aw, no think t'was my mom who bought it). yeah. ninety bucks on cassette and relative high soon after. down Music Nook at Gotesco Grand Central, Monumento.

Which Musician Have You Ever Wanted To Be?
Coltrane. Dolphy. Mobley. them with the saxful of air.

What Do You Sing In The Shower?
my wife does the singing. not me.

What Is Your Favourite Saturday Night Record?
Saturday night is coursework. the trip usually extends, but rarely on weekends. normally settle for quiet jazz, Coltrane's Traneing In or smooth, Patti Austin's Love is Gonna Getcha. recliner season and good film, but less music, though. yep. need periodic doses of tranquility, so to speak. at times, with corny ballads and specks of adult contemporaries: Cetera's You're the Inspiration and Loggins' Leap of Faith.

And Your Sunday Morning Record?
pop has an influence on sunday morning music. old school 50s and 60s rock, I'd say. The Cascades' Rhythm of the Rain and Forrest Gump Soundtrack.

ye old people to tag...

Evans
Rommel

...to deviate the sense from visceral to auditory. worth a test. hehe.
