Ol’ Skool Sunday: Super Visions ‘Til the Break of Dawn

Taste of Chicago 2008

Today i’m listening to some Stevie Wonder, whose bornday is May 13, 1950. (Now, is it just me, or should he have some sort of grand title, like “King of Music” or something? Maybe being “Stevie Wonder” is grand title enough!) I grew up listening to this guy, and credit him (and MJ) for giving me such a deep love and appreciation of music. So today (and many other days throughout the year), i say thank you, Stevie Wonder, for creating such beautiful, soul stirring, socially relevant, and dance provoking music!

Ol’ Skool Sunday: Beckoning Summer’s Return

Summer has only been gone for a couple weeks, but i miss it dearly. Don’t get me wrong, i like autumn too. The temperature is often comfortable. The trees change colors. I’m not as smelly and sweaty after riding my bike from point A to point B. And i’m always fascinated with the seemingly accelerated transition from looong sunny days to shorter, less vibrant ones. But nothing beats summer for me.

Today’s Ol’ Skool Sunday is my love letter to summer. I miss you already, and hope that your return is quick.
