MEME: Monday Music Mambo – New Beginnings

Hi everyone! Welcome back to the Mambo. Today is New Year's Day! The questions for this Mambo will be about the new musical goodies 2007 may bring us.


1. What album are you looking forward to purchasing this year, either physically or online?
The compilation album “Dueling Dawgs” by David Grisman and a variety of accompanists. The other one I await with baited breath and itchy trigger fingers is Nora Jones' Not Too Late
2. Which musical act do you hope will come to your town this year? If you know they're coming, even better!
Well, I'd like to see The Chieftans (Hi Russ!), Nora Jones, Elton John, Jethro Tull, Gordon Lightfoot, Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan, or Lyle Lovett and his Big Band. I haven't a clue if any of them are coming to the three venues in Maine that host concerts...
3. What is one musical trend you hope catches on in 2007?
A belief in the value of melody and sensical lyrics...
