Wild Is the Wind

Well, as we wrote earlier this week, it's been a rough month on this end, taking us completely out of our game, and posting a lot of goose-eggs.

We hope to begin getting back on track, right after the holiday, with a few new posts (already partially composed - Hint, we'll be inducting a few new Ignorant Dolts into the ranks).

So, on this damp, cool, holiday eve, we've got a tune you can unwind to, perhaps a cocktail in hand, after a night of preparation for the big day tomorrow.

It comes from under-heralded vibraphonist, Dave Pike.

Enjoy!
