Indestructible

Indestructible is the name of a jazz album that starts with the best drum play i have ever heard. It is a great wake up call, a slap in the face. Then there is a tenor sax, wayne shorter, shouting like there is no tomorrow, in a coltrane way. Lee morgan is the trumpetist and he might be the most melodic one in the set along with the pianist. It is a balanced mix of characters with shorter shooting bops and morgan armoniously bringing the bullets back.

The front cover is one of the most attractive i now in jazz. Indestrutible is a wave and there is red and a big cigarette pending from blakey's mouth in a inowwhatimdoing attitude. This alone is enough reason to buy the album.

Anyway, indestructible is how i have felt today. And why? Because i have a new friend riding with me as will oldham would sing. And we have swore we will always be together. no matter what. And this time i know it is true because it only depends on me.

Tonight we have a celebration party. Everyone is invited.
