Check out this jazz dispute. It’s really quite clever and well-delivered.

"Birth of the Cool" is an album that collects the twelve sides recorded by the Miles Davis nonet (featuring Gerry Mulligan, Lee Konitz and others) for Capitol Records in 1949 and 1950. The music is considered seminal. This blog is dedicated to that spirit -- keeping things "cool" by blog birthing. If you've got somethin' cool to share, blow on.

Everyone is lavishing praise on The New Yorker for its latest cover, “Bert and Ernie’s Moment of Joy.” Check it out for yourself here. You have to admit, it is pretty priceless.
Also of note (at least for me) is the price shown on the cover: $6.99. I haven’t bought an issue in many a moon and I must say I was a bit surprised. But hey, when put in context of the cost of everything else these days, $6.99 seems imminently fair.
Hey folks. I just discovered a truly cool music site: Musictonic. The front door is right here. Note that there is a pull-down menu that allows you to select your genre. I chose “jazz” and got this. You will probably get something else in jazz when you try it because the first selection is random within the genre. But check out the vast amount of free music you get on this site. I haven’t really scratched the surface, but I’m certainly going to bookmark it and visit often. Enjoy by all means!!!!
I was stumbling around the Net this morning and came across some examples of “Cinemagraph GIFs,” which I had never heard of before. They are totally cool. Check them out here.
I know I have not posted for over a week. I was up at the Tahoe/Donner place over the weekend and had matters to attend to the last couple of days. However, the good news is that the next Willy-Nilly audio production is in the works and I should be posting it in a couple of days. Stand by…
