"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.

1964 political add: eerie relevance
On her show Monday Rachel Maddow played this 1964 anti Goldwater political ad. It is definitely worth watching on many levels, and is especially relevant now that Trump is the "presumptive nominee." It's brilliant. Give it a listen... You won't regret it. I'm just hoping the outcome this year will be the same as it was in 1964.
