Last night I went with my husband to see Jeff Beck in Oakland at the Fox theatre. This was his dream not mine, but I fell in love. The music was magic, and here is a sample of why.
But the highlight of the evening for me was the bass player, Tal Wilkenfeld. What a joy, what a joy!
From her album Transformation –which I now plan on getting.

Easter is supposed to be a time of renewal and hope. These silly clips do wonders for my sense that all is not lost as long as I can smile and laugh as well as protest. As I watch our rights and liberties eroded daily by the government meant to protect them, I need a bit of humor to boost my spirit and energize me to fight the good fight.
Enjoy.

Here’s the feeling:
And here are the ideas:
Stand by me. Side by side. Free from coercion, as equals before the law. Free from a moral claim upon each other requiring acts of self-sacrifice. Free to follow our dreams. Free to work and trade to promote our self-chosen values. In good will, and peace, sanctified and protected by the recognition of each other’s right to live as an end in himself.
