All about Nature, about the outdoors<>I love it, photograph it and protect it.
Note from Ben: I haven’t had a lot to say about music here on da bulldog blog in my first two years, but being a musician and a big-time music lover, it’s a huge thing in my life. So I’m going to have more to say about it moving forward. It’s all about enjoying yourself on your passage through life. And music can be a big part of that!
I love to dash off a quick posting when a song I’ve loved for a while crawls through the speakers in my laptop and into my ear and really moves me.
It happened again tonight. It was a Joni Mitchell song; what can I say?
I’ve loved singer/songwriter Joni Mitchell since Court and Spark came out. Yeah, a long time.
To me the J.M. song that’s the most distinctive is “A Case of You”. If you’re not familiar with it, there’s no way to describe it, really.
Here’s the funny thing: even though I practically worship the ground upon which Joni walks, it’s the Jane Monheit cover of this amazing song that moves me the most.
Well, Joni and Jane tag-teamed me tonight; my heart and brain both feel as though they’ve gone a few rounds in the ring with these two hard-hitting queens of jazz.
Last call! If you want to hear a song that captures perfectly the insane passion in a woman’s love for a man, click on this.
Blusician “Bulldog Ben” Basile
PS: I hasten to add that, though it’s not absolutely necessary, appreciation for this cool tune can be heightened considerably if you’re a beer lover. All the more if said beer lover has had a brew or two by the time the first notes emerge from the speaker…
Enjoy the Outdoors. Love the Planet.
