Keith Green The Ministry Years.

I've been listening to this guy for twenty years. An outstanding pianist!

Love one another.

I have been a dj for years and mostly spin ambient chill-out music. So many songs remind me of Ray Bradbury... and his influence on my mixes is quite monumental.

A number of years ago I presented Ray with a dj mix tape that I had made in his honor. I have since digitized this mix and am listening to it now.

djm: Can you share some especially noteworthy artists and titles with us here? I am sure many are late night readers and would enjoy your offerings.

By your posts, it is obvious you are a biblio... & audiophile!

Cool video of one of Daniel Amos's best songs - a song of nostalgia, but so much more.

DA is such an awesome band!

I worry the message in this moving song is being lost to a generation and culture that seems too unfocused to realize the greatness of Our Land. More stations, gltiz, glamour, ear plugs, me...me...me..."Denhams." I hope I am very wrong.

Mr. Bradbury has been warning us of this throughout his writing career: "It was a pleasure to burn." Firemen never put out fires!

Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

This is a very moving song, indeed.

The Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald, Gordon Lightfoot


She stood silently looking out into the great sallow distances of sea bottom, as if recalling something, her yellow eyes soft and moist...

I have some music by Leon, but anytime I hear his name this song ALWAYS comes to mind:

R-E-L-A-X. . . . ahhhhhhhhhhhh!

Hello! Yes, of course I would be happy to share. I have also archived some of the old mix tapes, including the live mix I made for Mr. Bradbury here:

http://www.monolithlabs.com/mixes/mixtapes/mixtapes.htm

(Click Beautiful Things)

Please keep in mind, if you choose to listen, that these are old archived mixes... all live and digitized from tape. The sound quality isn't that great.

There are a few more live digital mixes here, if you are interested:

As for particular deep space, chill-out music - I will compile a small list.

Yes, I have been a part of the boards for a few years. Bradbury has been a part of my life for many many years and I can safely say that who I am is in no small part due to the writings and mind of Mr. Bradbury.

Thanks for the note. I hope you enjoy Beautiful Things.

Don't see the attraction, myself.
