Going back to his first album for this listen through gives us a mix of piano led jazz and blues, with a much smoother voice, but we are in familiar territory of melancholy late night bars, doomed love and regrets. My personal highlight is the bouncy Ice Cream Man that fades out into distinctive chimes.

There’s a good selection classic tunes, with I’ve Got You Under My Skin by Cole Porter being a highlight. I also found out today that there were two versions of the cover art - the original with Frank looking off into the distance was changed for one where he’s watching the ‘Swingin’ Lovers’ like a slightly creepy uncle!<br/><br/><a href="https://album.link/i/1440841946">https://album.link/i/1440841946</a> 2024-11-12T11:09:36Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsw9q89xfx5zfj859ugedjuevvpmayl6edz7805dvuy82mdtm9gcaczyzscxpvjgqfvzrgqv44w22d3t6w3l3f8yfeygfclcc6j8xye7p57x54h8jc In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqstrr7c2d702y0mryln4kepdj7lxepn4688znxesvs6sv8jspqj4fgntvse6'>nevent1q…vse6</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>the iPod nano was brilliant!

Female fronted pop punk, with fuzzed out guitars and even more fuzzed out vocals, tracing a direct line from bands like the Pretenders and Siouxie and the Banshees. It’s not revolutionary or going to change the world in any way, but sometimes you just want something that hits all of the right notes without trying too hard. The highlight for me was the song No, No, No which is very appropriate for the Yeah, Yeah, Yeahs. <br/><br/><a href="https://album.link/i/1440916724">https://album.link/i/1440916724</a> 2024-10-02T13:00:26Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsghkjx0pstf5qwvncxekt52e2hcck49l24lqja7jyvvfrqupffmlczyzscxpvjgqfvzrgqv44w22d3t6w3l3f8yfeygfclcc6j8xye7p57x5xvjnt #DailyHaikuPrompt #Apple<br/><br/>As I eat my snack <br/>I remember the trend for<br/>Fruit based computers<br/> <img src="https://cdn.masto.host/dicecamp/media_attachments/files/113/232/863/677/363/628/original/d1bd3eaca493b882.jpeg"> <br/> 2024-10-01T15:26:26Z
