Digital Crate Digging Continues on a hot Tuesday afternoon in Atlanta; another 90 degree day!! 

“Hotter Than July”  has morphed over into August, some might have lost us or we lost them as we continue to talk about a Terrible / Terrific Tuesday..

I was trying to tell them things can go either way, trying to cost them / accost them /  interrupting their coping strategy? naw, I was trying to encourage them…

…to adopt a positive attitude so they can claim the terrific outcome; we’ll help them celebrate by pulling out the drum..

Eric Gale – Sara Smile

Sunday Jazz Continues!! check us out as a little digital crate digging will be involved…

The saga / struggle continues, can you dig it? during the ongoing process we jumped to the the conclusion that it’s rough out here, but we evolved..

The saga / struggle continues,  threw some salve on the wounds and kept it moving / grooving..

Chilling out on this Sunday evening after coming out odd and even in the ongoing crap game; life is a gamble,  winning and losing..

Shady dealing out here in Babylon? oh yes, once again it’s on!! we rebuke it with this sound!! listening to Eric Gale with his version of the the Hall and Oates track Sara Smile..
