He has passed away, but his presence in our lives will live on: Kris Kristofferson. ~ He did much more than sing about margaritas: Jimmy Buffett. ~ One of the finest singers of his generation was Tony Bennnett. (Sorry for the extra “n,” but he deserves it.) ~ A tribute to Chuck Berry! ~  San Antonio Rose: Antonio Rose and Moonlight Sonata, is a short story about beautiful music. ~ Odes to Bob Dylan: The controversy surrounding Bob Dylan possibly using others’ works. ~ Here is another piece that  deals with Bob Dylan and the Nobel Prize. ~ A salute to a jazz genius: Dave Brubeck. ~ And a salute to two C&W geniuses: Kris Kristofferson and Merle Haggard.   ~ Two rock concerts: Rocking on the River and Rocking at the Roxy. ~ An accordion festival. Don’t laugh; click on Accordionly Fine.   ~ Christmas memories, A Christmas Cantata, past times when public schools had religious music. ~ Caesar’s Palace in Las Vegas: Rod Stewart. It’s a kick. So is Rod Stewart. I hope you enjoy it. ~ An evening of fundraising for a non country and western (C&W) symphony while listening to fine C&W music:  Fiddling away an Evening.
