My best friend told me about Diana Krall, about a year ago. "She's Canadian, a blond, she plays jazz piano like she invented it, and sings like an angel. Go get the CD" he said.
So I bought her new CD, and then a video of her in concert, in Paris. I'm playing it now, and it's hard to concentrate on typing.
So that's a tip for you, if you like music in general and good jazz in particular.
I hope you gain as much pleasure from music as do I. I like listening to almost all kinds of music, from classics to jazz, with the exceptions of "rap". Our house is seldom without a tune, and our CD collection covers a broad spectrum.
I dream, sometimes, that my sight has gone, along with my hearing. What an awful world that must be, with nothing much to do except think!
Not that I'm really worrying. As well as our sound system, our household goods include an electronic piano, a portable keyboard, a flute, two harmonicas and a tin whistle.
Neither of us are much more than enthusiastic amateurs, but we have a lot of fun trying!
But now, with Ms Krall in full flight, I'm off to watch, as well as listen.
