It’s Saturday, I’m supposed to be feel sort of special way, but I don’t. I need something, the coffee isn’t doing it. Perhaps, I need to close my eyes and drift away to another place. A place where the words sit right beside me waiting to be used. Of course, I can’t have that. It’s … Continue reading Morning Vibe – 06152024

It might be Cat Friday. I went home for lunch, and Seymour was working on the laptop, wearing my spare pair of headphones. She looked at me with an extremely annoyed expression. I took the headphones to see what she was listening to. This is what I heard. Continue reading Morning Vibe – 06142024

PROSE My eyes burn in that familiar way. My muscles are sluggish as if it were a long night. The rest of my body feels we’ve been chasing that non-existent woman of dreams. It is the perfect combination of the things you like in a woman but never seem to remember while conscious. The dog … Continue reading Morning Vibe – 06072024

Man, still thinking that daily prompt hardly got any sleep. My mouth all watering and whatnot. It ain’t right .. it ain’t right. Just mean that all it is. The power of pure imagination. Continue reading Morning Vibe – 06052024

One of my favorite Jazz saxophonists died recently. I found out last night while preparing the Sunday Juke Joint playlist. It killed the entire vibe I was working on. So, I finished other posts and played some of his music as a mini tribute. I remember seeing David Sanborn in concert once. That night was … Continue reading Morning Vibe – 06032024

The doctor decided to give me some good news, not great, but good. I suppose I should be doing the happy dance or something. However, I want to do is take a nap. It’s Friday and the sun is shining. I guess to get with the program. Continue reading Morning Vibe – 05312024

PROSE – REFLECTION It’s my MiMi’s birthday today. She’d be well over a hundred. People used to say she was mean. I’d smile and say she wasn’t mean to me and she wasn’t. She was tough ole gal as she used to say that didn’t put up with any of my shenanigans. She was what … Continue reading Morning Vibe – 05302024

We never know how things are going to turn out, do we? I mean, we make these plans and have these notions about the results if we follow the plan. When I think about things like these, this song pops into my head. Continue reading Morning Vibe – 05192024

The last six months have sucked in their own brand. The brand you find at one of those off beat novelty shops that one has ever heard of and can’t remember how to keep back to. The brand you get a taste of and can’t stand the flavor, but you can’t seem to get rid … Continue reading Morning Vibe – 05172024

It’s been 10 years this year since Madre Khan has been called home. I miss her. So today, I’m going to jam some of her favorites. The first time I heard this track was with her. This track sticks out because it’s so different from the music normally played at home. She sat quietly on … Continue reading Morning Vibe – 05122024

Some mornings, you need something to get the blood flowing—nothing too heavy but hard enough to knock the edges off. What to play? So, I lit a lucky and cranked up Boston. It feels like its going to be one of those days. You know, the ones you can’t put your finger on. They could … Continue reading Morning Vibe – 05072024

PROSE Its dark still, but its morning. You know this, not because of any alarm, but because you can hear the birds speaking to one another, not that you can understand, but an announcement all the same. Now you hear the stillness of the night dissipate. The horn of the :07 shatters the remains. Your … Continue reading Morning Vibe – 05032024

Life always has it challenges and we sometimes let these challenges get the best of us. On those days we just want to push life in the face. Metphorically of course, but I think you get the idea. Days like those, I’ve found a solid cure for this type of mood is James Brown. Continue reading Morning Vibe – 04122024

Sometimes the classics just make the morning better. It’s a little cloudy here, but I have never minded it when its cloudy. I love looking at the texture of the clouds. This Bobby Hebb classic has been played on radios and homes of many for decades. It’s one of the songs that demand to snap … Continue reading Morning Vibe – 04112024

There’s verse in this song that moves me each time I hear it. “I am invincible” It serves as a sometimes mantra when things get heavy. And things are heavy. However, I enjoy listening to it regardless of the circumstances. Music has always been a source of relaxation and joy. Lyrics: Welcome to the real … Continue reading Morning Vibe – 04072024

It’s been a rough week with my latest health setback, but things are progressing well. Today is a good day and I should be home soon. While, I have been here, I’ve watched the news. I typically don’t watch the news; I find it a poorly scripted reality show done in poor taste. What happened … Continue reading Morning Vibe – 04062024

The radio always played in the background when MiMi was in the kitchen. I learned to slip into a chair and quietly listen. If not, be banished from the kitchen for some undetermined amount of time. There was nothing worse than smelling the aroma of her heavenly creations and not being to take a peek. … Continue reading Morning Vibe – 04042024

The day started off on the wrong foot so to speak. Patience and restraint, my watchwords, seem to be on vacation. I’m a little miffed about this because the bastards didn’t have the decency to take me with them. A track from the “The Ramones” sums my feelings about thus far Here’s some more because … Continue reading Morning Vibe – 04022024

Forgive my tardiness in this post; I was busy jamming this morning instead of posting. However, this track took me back to the 1970s and the funkiness of Jazz. Ladies and Gentleman, Maynard Ferguson Continue reading Morning Vibe – 03222024

PROSE -RANDOM THOUGHTS I fell in love with an idea. The kind of shit you know better, but just can’t help yourself. The second day of being back at the grind and there’s something different. Simple answer it’s me and takes time getting back into the swing of things. Sure, this is true, but this … Continue reading Morning Vibe – 101720230830

PROSE – INTROSPECTION I returned to work yesterday and it was good day. I made it all the way through without face planting or being held up by the walls. But today, I seem to be worn out. I’m walking gingerly thinking each step before I make it. I can’t help but to wonder if … Continue reading Morning Vibe – 091920230813
