Music, Heart and Soul

Got some new albums, or more specifically, my beau did and I am really enjoying them. The new Foo Fighters, Gorillaz, and The Shield Soundtrack (yes, that violent cop TV show on cable, FX to be specific). There is one track on the Gorillaz album that has Dennis Hopper doing spoken word and it sort of reminds me of an old Peter and the Wolf performance I heard when I was a kid. I must've been 6 years old and it scared me because I remember hearing the sound representing the wolf and being frightened because it was so ALIVE. A couple of years ago I heard that this version had been redone with the words spoken by David Bowie and I would like to have that someday, because his voice is so melodic and entrancing. It would be wonderful to listen to. HAHA, I reread what I had written and belatedly realize that I have once again missed my point altogether. So like me. Anyhow, I'll have to get back to this later, work calls.

I know I should check out The Shield but the thought of adding another hour...oy. I don't think I ever heard the old Peter and the Wolf performance.... but I loved listening to old radio shows a local station used to play Sunday nights... my favorite being that oldie but goodie, "The Shadow (Knows)" -- fun stuff.
