barrett's amazing voice

wednesday evening i got home and found an envelope waiting for me and the sender: Barrett.
i was so excited to find a cd with some of his music.
i was blown away by his amazing voice and stunning lyrics. i feel very honored at having had the privilege to listen to your music. it's so great to meet people who are so genuine and generous like you and so TALENTED!

he also sent me a copy this painting, which yes I loved!! :)

how romantic...to be swept away :)

and the "sweet drum groove" !!!! WOW. i love love listening to this!!!! the rhythm of drums & trumpets...took me to another world, very hypnotic. it did make me get up and dance. I LOVE IT. so much so that i include this tango collage that i made in tribute :)




Thank you Barrett for my gifts!

What a lovely painting. Is that pointillism?

Thanks for the tribute and I'm so glad you danced! I feel the same way about knowing you! Now part of me gets to visit. That song is special because I broke the snare in the middle of it. I kept playing anyway. I don't know if you can tell, but the tone changes.

carolvs -yes, that is my version of pointilism -the only one I've ever done like that. I'm no Serat but hey. I figured I had to try it once. Boy was it tedious!!

The beauty of giving is so apparent in this post. I even got caught up by such beautiful acts...!!! xoxo.

Wow...Barret is great person even though I still await the chance to know him in person ...I can not tell how his comments uplift my soul...cause he always read others work in depth and see in every corner of others writing....

I love listening to music, and I can't help but feel really curious about what his songs sound like. I'll check for streaming audio =)

And I love watching people dance the tango. It's so sensual... the dancers seem to have a passionate conversation through their gestures. I remember this tango scene from 'moulin rouge', which is so intense... the scene is beautiful. have you seen it?

too bad I could only watch though - unfortunately, I've been blessed with 2 left feet =(

what medium are you using for the painting, Sir Barrett? are you also a knight?

Lorena said...

luanne :: yes i have seen moulin rouge. i agree. it is beautiful to watch. i get so lost watching them. i think you should try dancing, come on!! i'm sure you'd be great :)

nabeel :: he is using pointilism. are you a knight sirbarrett? :) i'm sure he is a knight in shining armor :)
