This has nothing to do with news or politics, but I cannot resist.
Last night, I heard M.J. Wilde singing with Phil Lenk and buddies at the Albuquerque Hilton.
I last heard her several months ago when I recognized her talent but found that she treated every song the same way, belting them all as if she had some deep need to do so...
Well, it turns out that was just where she started.Last night, I heard an artist.
If you live in or near Albuquerque, go hear her do the standards (and a few numbers outside the canon) at the Hilton's Ranchers Club some Friday or Saturday around 8 PM.
You will thank me for the tip.
