As part of the album release cycle for my new record “Riverman” I’ve invited several guest authors to contribute short, narrative essays - 2 for each song, as well as one of my own. This is the first post in the series, authored by my dear friend and fellow Pisces Misha Thomas.

Over the holidays I took my Canon AE-1 out with a roll of Kodak Ultramax 400 to shoot in low light conditions. I got some pretty viby shots.

Autumn in New York by Vernon Duke

If a communist were elected … then it would be the will of the people.

The WH has power to take over a state’s elections?

Yes…we are walking into fascism.

And don’t forget, the Trumps are not allowed to run charities out of NY. They know their game.

Opinion | Selfishness Is Not a Virtue Evangelical Christianity has taken a wrong turn.

From @nytopinion.nytimes.com

“Too many Christians are transforming Christianity into a vertical faith, one that focuses on your personal relationship with God at the expense of the horizontal relationship you have with your neighbors,” writes our columnist David French.

Grant Green was born on this day June 6, 1935. The guitarist was the soul of Blue Note thru the 1960s recording more than 20 great hard bop & soul jazz albums from 1961-65 & returning in 1969 with a style that had evolved into jazz-funk.
