Turning over the toy box and jamming together the gloriously mismatched musical Lincoln Logs, Legos and Tinker Toys from Tin Pan Alley pluggers, pickled egg tavern weepers, lockstep soul ensembles, skinny-tie power poppers, Eurotrash ravers, moontanned art school rockers, drunken soccer anthems and anything else that seems like a good idea at the time. There are no guilty pleasures.

Never understood what the big deal with Taylor Swift was. She's mediocre, but she has many #1 hits and multiple Grammy wins. That's Whitney Houston territory and Taylor is nowhere near that good.

Can never tire of Whitney's version of "I Will Always Love You". Probably the greatest female solo recording of the 1990s.

From the Rorem obit: "Soon he had met dozens of the great and glamorous figures of the day: Picasso, Dalí and Man Ray; Jean Cocteau; the composers Francis Poulenc and Darius Milhaud; Alice B. Toklas and Zsa Zsa Gabor."
Uncle Michael:
johnk77:
dan:
Well they're tone-deaf if they think Taylor Swift is the best. They got it right with Whitney in the 80s and 90s.
