Crystal Bowersox' New Album


One of my all time favorite singers from American Idol is Crystal Bowersox. She is an amazing talent and things certainly seem to be going well for her. She has a new album and soon will be playing Patsy Cline on broadway.

Bowersox' new album, All That For This, is released today. She wrote all the songs and they are beautiful. You can download her album on iTunes. You also can get it on CD.

Judy Collins on This Week's Episode of Girls


I am a big fan of HBO's Girls. I think Lena Dunham has got to be one of the biggest talents of her age. The writing is fabulous and the characters are brilliantly quirky. I alway love it when Hannah's parents are on the show and this week they took Hannah to a club where Judy Collins was singing. It brought back lots of memories of Collins songs. All of my records are still in album form and packed away, so I headed over to iTunes to download some of my old Judy Collins favorites.

Someday Soon Someday Soon - The Very Best of Judy Collins
Amazing Grace Amazing Grace - The Very Best of Judy Collins
Turn Turn Turn Turn, Turn, Turn! (To Everything There Is a Season) - The Very Best of Judy Collins
Open the Door Open the Door - Judy Collins Wildflower Festival
City of New Orleans City of New Orleans - Judith

Do you have a favorite Judy Collins song?

Making Music By Swinging


This is a community project in Montreal. The swing set makes sounds as you swing. Together you can make melodies. How cool is that?

Sade is Back

After many years the fabulous Sade is back touring and recording. This morning I have been listening to Sade's new album Bring Me Home. 53 year old Sade still has that silky smooth voice that I fell in love with in the 1980s. As of today her new album is number one on the charts. You can find out more about the return of this amazing singer on her website.

Congratulations Phillip Phillips - This Years' American Idol Winner

And the man has had BAD kidney stones all season. Ouch! He's having surgery right away. This young man is going to have one fabulous career. So is Josh Ledet. I look forward to both of their albums. Note to producers DO NOT RUIN THEM BY HAVING THEM SING STUPID POP SONGS. LET THEM BE WHO THEY ARE!
