He decided he'd rather play tennis with my dad so I got to go. Please give my love to your mother. May his memory be for a blessing.

You have my deepest sympathies. Coincidentally, my father passed recently (on the 9th). We are, none of us, alone.; 3:08 AM EDT
Joy Krauss said...: I'm so sorry about Jerry. I have been trying to reach your mother, but her phone seems to be out of order. If you get to her before I do, please tell her I tried.

Love to your whole family.

Heavy Rotation (Shuffle Mode Suggested)

This is the Weisnick Family's everyday playlist. It changes (somewhat) on a weekly basis as new albums are released (or when my mood shifts). It is fairly eclectic and is reminsiscent of a time when radio was unsegregated.

The first 47 songs on this playlist were originally assembled by musician Ryuichi Sakamoto for his favorite Japanese restaurant in New York City. He loved the food but he hated the music so he created a playlist that complemented the dining experience rather than distracted from it. The rest of the playlist was created by a Spotify algorithm that picks songs similar to what has been previously played when a playlist runs out of tracks. Beyond dinner, this playlist is highly recommended for chilling, relaxing, and releasing cobwebs from your brain. (More Information)

The "best" new music of 2019, updated every Friday.

#Ones That Never Were: Pretty much what the title implies, if you had my taste in so-called "pop" music. Kind of a Desert Island Playlist, for the Weisnicks.

Music for driving through the fog on Mulholland Drive or smoking a cigarette in the rain outside a jazz club in NYC.

Cover Tunes. Lots of Cover Tunes.

Just in case you forget to breathe. A perfect antidote for the daily news cycle.

The complete Beastie Boys masterpiece and most of the songs they sampled.

Some of the best music of the last decade was created or fronted by women. It's true. Have a listen...

Late '70s, Early '80s goodness.

May We Suggest a Decanter of Manhattan, Martini, or Daiquiri?

All things Eno-related (his bands, his solo recordings, his collaborations, his productions, his Enosification). Pretty much the history of modern music.

Currently the best soundtrack composer in the business (IMHO)
