What Are You Listening To? July 2019

Gregory Porter - Be Good (2012)

I remember when I bought this and could listen to the title song a dozen times in a row. Just heard it now for the first time in probably over a year and I am finding it hard to allow the album to continue.

This may be pseudo jazz, but man, do I love this song. So full of grace.

Saw this post this morning and it reminded me that I hadn't listened to the Jazz tribute album to Pavement in a long time. I don't think I've ever heard a Pavement song performed by Pavement until I listened to that video today. That song was nice.

The Internet - Hive Mind (2018)

Billy Joel - An Innocent Man (1983)

This is either the album where Billy Joel stopped being Billy Joel, or it's the album where Billy Joel started being Billy Joel. Whichever one it is, it's definitely the album where Billy Joel started to suck. What the fuck is this shit?

I disagree with the middle sentence, but think the first sentence bears some thought. All three sentence either made me chuckle or LOL.
