The internet can be a great tool for expanding knowledge and converting curiosity into awareness and inspiration.

I was listening to an Art Farmer song on Pandora, and reading up on him. Wikipedia noted his work with composer Gigi Gryce. I had never heard of Gryce, so began to read up on him. His biography is compelling, and complex, and could make a great film.

Here is his piece "Minority." Enjoy.

Good balance of driving hard be bop and intricate interweaving themes. Apparently Gryce's work does not typically allow much room for solos so it did not enjoy widespread popularity among performers who used melodies as vehicles for their performance.

Made me think of Ramin Djawadi’s take, which was probably the best thing to come out of Westworld season 2.

I can't imagine dedicating your craft to being a professional reacter

I generally don't look down on anyone's careeet choices, but I'll add them a hair above influencer. Blech.

I am so bummed that I never got a text with a link for the verified fan sale for the Cure.

but I love that Robert Smith is challenging Ticketmaster

Brothers don't shake hands...

Also I cannot believe it but the new Church album is quite good. Wish I lived in a place where they'd tour.

Wait, so are these like professional reactors?

It’s a big thing on YouTube these days. I came across a guy who was reacting to Weird Al videos that he’s “seeing for the first time.” I was on a Weird Al kick, and it looks like he’s there to have big reactions. He was positive in his reactions, but they were completely over the top.

I imagine they're all YT "creators" that likely comment on a variety of music, movies, video game streams, sports, Tik Tok, etc., etc. I don't follow any of them that are in the compilation I only stumbled upon the shared video.

I don't watch a ton of reaction videos because they can be somewhat repetitive, but this compilation reacting to Tool - Lateralus is pretty cool. Not only their reactions during the song but how speechless and amazed so many of them were at the end.

The Waterboys At First Avenue. I wasn't at this show but did see them about a dozen years earlier. Thankfully I didn't write them off when I heard them for the first time (The Whole of the Moon) because I've never been a big fan of that song, but their deeper catalog is great.
