Hawaii. I want to go to Hawaii.

I bought several CDs in Academy today. It is an incredible store. I shouldn’t be buying so many new things. I’m moving soon. But I can’t help it. I figure it’s likely to be some time before I work one block from a store as good as that. So I continue to go in there.

Slightly less miserable weather today! Is this weblog interesting?

A wonderful record. There are only 10 tracks, including standards like 'Am I blue', 'The poor people of Paris' and 'Deed I do'. All have that mix of sounds that I find so intoxicating - spare, lazy, arrangments; nicely recorded and spooky sounding vocals; and good song choices.

I have to buy the Les and Mary box set.
