It’s been a long time since the last show. Life got busy and there wasn’t much time for podcasting. But the show is back and I have found some great music. So sit back, relax and listen to the best in jazz and instrumental music by independent artist.

What a fabulous Spring it’s been! Everything is lush and green and the signs of the harsh winter are all but erased. My wife keeps a couple of bird feeders out in the back yard next to the woods. I like to call it the Birdfeed Cafe because we get lots of “customers” during the Spring and early Summer. Oh, not just birds! We get grey squirrels and red squirrels and a black squirrel has even come to visit this year. We have chipmunks and opossums and a young porcupine which is quickly making friends with my wife. There is a turkey family that comes by almost daily and we’ve had a couple of red foxes and a grey fox come to visit. Of course, the deer visit nightly and, oh yea, Da Bears! This year a momma and two cubs have come by and one big ol’ male bear… Big Bear. It’s so much fun watching the wildlife in New Hampshire. I have some great songs in this show. Sit back and relax…

The Long Winter is Over

Well, it certainly was a long winter! It started out with a bang. Literally! The sound of exploding trees during the great Ice Storm of 08 was something I hope to not experience again any time soon. Then the snow came… and came… and came… But Spring is finally here and with it comes some great music. So sit back, relax, and enjoy.
