(There will be limited blogging for the next two weeks, as Wrongo and Ms. Oh So Right head to Europe for tourism. You should expect that normal blogging will resume on May 3.)
Tax day is when the little people step up and pay whatever TurboTax, HR Block or their accountant, say they owe America for the privilege of living in the wasteland of the Free and Exceptional, but not the exceptionally free.
Wrongo sent his in yesterday.
Since this is the last post for a few days, let’s send you off with a tune. Carlos Santana has gotten most of the old band back together and is taking it on the road in support of “Santana IV.” Santana has reunited with Gregg Rolie on keyboards and lead vocals, Michael Shrieve on drums and Michael Carabello on congas, along with Neal Schon on guitar, who was on “Santana III” before starting Journey. Greg Rolie wrote this song. His move, along with Neal Schon made Journey an awesome band, but they also help make “S IV” sound like a great album, a throwback to the 1970’s when Santana really sounded like a band, not a collection of overdubs like in recent years.
Santana IV is available today. It is the first time Wrongo has ever had a reason to cheer on tax day.
Here is one the first songs from the album, “Blues Magic”:
Listen, and then get the album, or at least buy a couple of tracks for your phone.
See ya in a few weeks.
