Can’t Stop
Okay, I admit it: we are smitten with my son’s new album. I awoke this morning with one particular song running in my head. I just needed to hear it again, and when Cyndie noticed the sound of it playing, she asked me to play it again, out near the kitchen, where she could hear it better, because she wanted to hear that song, too.
If you read yesterday’s post here, and didn’t want to explore all the songs on Julian’s album, I will promote one for your consideration. Listen to “Of Mistress, Master, and Malcontent.” This song includes vocals from Dave Marshall, Julian’s friend in Chicago, and the blend of their voices together is a joy to behold. They have created an arrangement in this song that is captivating, and I think deserves to be heard by a wide audience. I have submitted it to a local radio station for consideration.
Do you think they will be able to see past the gushing parents to take time to consider the music for its own merit?
I hope so. That would make today a real SUPER Sunday.
Enjoy the day!
Relative Something 
Hi John – Haven’t been to your spot for a long time…thought of you today and checked in and have been reading past postings…LOVE your son’s song…Sam even wandered into the room to ask who I was listening to – a real compliment from an 18 year old 🙂 I plan on listening to more, more, more soon. We have just returned from Chicago after visiting Columbia College for Sam. Where did Julian go to school in Chicago?
How is your commute going these wintery days? Cannot imagine after a lifetime of your living near work how you are doing with this?
xoxo to you and yours. Pam

How wonderful to hear from you, Pam! And I particularly love hearing the high praise from Sam that it got his attention. I am very pleased to learn that you like it, too. I sure hoped that it wasn’t just my parental bias that has me so infatuated with this song.
Julian attended the Illinois Institute of Technology, http://www.iit.edu/.
The commute is just plain long, but going as well as I could hope. I am only working a 4-day week, and have been very lucky that a lot of the snowstorm/bad traffic days have been falling on my off-day.
I’m looking for alternatives…
Thanks for catching up!
