Dear Friends,

This week we walk through winter — the hush of snow, the ache of stillness, the glow of memory. Songs that feel like frost on glass and breath in the dark air. From Simon & Garfunkel to Fleet Foxes, Nico to Leonard Cohen — winter in all its moods: hopeful, melancholy, luminous.
Enjoy!

It's Tuesday December 2 and it's snowing! Swingin' the Blues is going to be listening to the drinking songs of Amos Milburn. He was a great pianist with a nice voice but because of a hit he had the record company kept insisting he record more drinking songs. I'm not sure wether to curse them or thank them. You decide. We'll hear his drinking tunes and some tasty jazz and blues.

Mixing surf rock with science fiction and flat out strange lyrics, Deadbolt will transport you to an alternative universe. Listen if you dare......
