Income rally correction
I successfully reached well over 1,000 views. However, my estimated earnings remain at $5.68. Inquiry showed that I begin earning after 1,000 advertisement views - and I am at 76. Therefore, I am embarking on an Amazon Purchase Rally where viewers can either purchase or at minimum view the advertisements. If there are any Amazon items you would like to see advertised for view or purchase, please let me know via comment.

Set List - ...And slow down
Go crazy. . .and slow down.
Boney James is a smooth jazz saxophone player. His style is sensual with a groove. "Boneyizm," off of the album Body Language, is slow and sexy in beat and tone. Yet, "RPM," off of the album Ride, is relatively fast and energetic for smooth jazz. Boney James is phenomenal in tapping into different senses. Whereas "Boneyizm" is perfect for a rainy day, "RPM" has the zest for a live concert.
Joyce Cooling is a smooth jazz musician. "Before Dawn," off of the album Keeping Cool, is upbeat and refreshing in tone. I imagine coming home to this song gently cooling the air on a hot summer day.
Steve Laury is a smooth jazz guitarist. "Shakedown," off of the album Steve Laury Vol 1, compliments the cool sound set by Joyce Cooling. "Shakedown" is ideal to listen to on a lazy summer weekend day. No pressing needs. No errands. Just home.
Greg Adams is a jazz trumpet player. In my opinion, his style is one of mystery and intrigue with a beat. "Burma Road," off of the album Hidden Agenda, allows the listener to escape on an imagined exotic journey far from home. The beat is smooth. The instrumentals provide escaped mystery. The overall sound allows the listener to catch their breath on a hectic day.
To be sure, however, these songs and artists, just to name a few, give the listener a much-needed chance to slow down their daily pace and relax.
Smooth jazz can catch you grooving in the moment or resting in the moment. Either way, smooth jazz has a way of relaxing moments. So choose your style and always play it.

My boys : Duran Duran
If the music video for "Reach up for the Sunrise" (see below) and the Live from London version of "What Happens Tomorrow" (see below) do not fully reflect my sincere passion for Duran Duran, perhaps "Girls on Film" will (see below).
Rock it while you listen. And always play it!
Rock it while you listen. And always play it!
Reach up for the sunrise. . .
. . .Because you'll never know what happens tomorrow
Always hope, always believe, always stay positive. Words to aspire to. Words easily forgotten.
I hope that Duran Duran's Live from London version of "What Happens Tomorrow" will trigger memories. The recorded version can be found on their album, Astronuat.

Reach for the stars. . .Reach for the sunrise
Duran Duran's "Reach up for the Sunrise" is an incredibly inspirational song to me, in lyrics, tone, and beat. I create so many goals in life and strive only for the best. And so for everything I must have - income, dream apartment, my little puppy and kitten, an independent life - I cannot give up. I will reach for the stars. I will reach up for the sunrise.
I hope that Duran Duran's music video for "Reach up for the Sunrise" will inspire you too.
