Sight and Sound Love is blue and so are these pretty flowers I found at the beach. Paul Mauriat from his " Le Grand Orchestre de Paul Mauriat – Volume 5" album released in 1967. (I remember this instrumental growing up and always loved it. To me it always sounded happy :) It's so interesting now to read about this orchestra leader. I had no knowledge of him and that he was French just makes this all the more special to me now. About the song if you're interested: Wiki L'amour est bleu 4 links! Hopefully one will work for you and brighten your day! (such troubles with links lately.) Love Is Blue (L'Amour Est Bleu) Love Is Blue Love Is Blue Love Is Blue Love Is Blue

Sight and Sound I've got a little leftover stock from my trip to the pet shop last weekend so I thought I'd link it with this classic by the "Pet Shop Boys." Anybody remember this one? Pet Shop Boys first released this as a single in 1984 and then later on their 1986 album "Please." West End Girls West End Girls

Sight and Sound Tonight my thoughts are with our friends in Italy and the earth quake that has just devastated part of their beautiful country and has caused so many to lose their lives, loved ones and their homes. :( Fabrizio Paterlini from his album "The Art of the Piano" (2014) My Piano The Clouds My Piano The Clouds

Sight and Sound "It's a Beautiful Day" from their 1969 self titled album: This is a band out of San Francisco in the late 1960s. You might remember them from their hit "White Bird." Live: (not the best footage, but so rare and of the times): Hot Summer Day Album: Hot Summer Day Hot Summer Day

Sight and Sound (Looks best on black) This is one of my first attempts at "Astrophotography." Not an easy task, but a very exciting challenge nonetheless. The thing I found hardest to do was to get any kind of focus on the stars themselves. I will keep on trying after the full moon when the sky is darker. Dan Fogelberg from his "Home Free" album (1972) Stars Stars

Sight and Sound Cut off from the dream Where the sky meets water Beneath forgotten stars.... Riverside from their "Love, Fear and the Time Machine" album (2015) Found Found

Sight and Sound Joni Mitchell's debut album (1968) Song to a Sea Gull Song to a Sea Gull

Sight and Sound This is the Seabeck Marina on Hood Canal. It was destroyed along with a lot of boats in the big storm of 1990 and had to be rebuilt. The new name is actually "Olympic View Marina," but I still call it the Seabeck Marina. :) If I had a boat I'd go out on the ocean And if I had a pony I'd ride him on my boat And we could all together Go out on the ocean Me upon my pony on my boat Lyle Lovett from his album "Pontiac" (1987) ​ ​If I had a Boat ​If I had a Boat

Sight and Sound This is a Turkey Vulture I saw the other day. He looks pretty happy flying like a vulture, but I couldn't find a song for that. ;) Steve Miller Band from his "Fly Like an Eagle" album (1976) Fly Like an Eagle Fly Like an Eagle

NOT TSC Sight and Sound "Half-light" (looks good in the dark!) This was an extra photo for TSC's latest challenge. This is my son's lava lamp on the kitchen counter with the refrigerator in the background. I used the "mirror" effect in PicMonkey on it so now there are two lava lamps! I went looking for a song with the word "lava" in it and found this adorable animated short from Pixar. I hope you will enjoy it as much as I did! (I got a soft spot for Pixar lol :) Lava Lava ​ Lava

Sight and Sound Got some blues for you. Robert Cray from "Strong Persuader" (1986) I Wonder I Wonder

Sight and Sound Steve Martin and Bernadette Peters from the movie "The Jerk" (1979) Tonight You Belong to Me Tonight You Belong to Me

Sight and Sound This is a place not too far from where I live where you can see a little of the Olympic Mountain Range over the Hood Canal. I was looking for a song to fit this very "blue image." I think this one by "Blues Image" from 1970 will work. Ride Captain Ride (be amazed at the friends you have here on your trip." :) Ride Captain Ride

Sight and Sound It's true! The Sound of Music The Sound of Music

Sight and Sound Time for some bluegrass with Alison Krauss and Union Station. I could only find one good link to each of these tunes and since my links aren't always available to everyone you get two choices of songs this time. First is Oh Atlanta ...and then a fun instrumental for you: Little Liza Jane If you're lucky maybe you can see them both. Enjoy!

Sight and Sound My mind wanders back to the summer and the sea today.... Men at Work from their "Business as Usual" album (1982.) (Turn it up!) Down By the Sea Down By the Sea

...of Appalachia (My Appalachian Mountains (The Olympics) Sight and Sound Back in the 1970s I lived and worked in Seattle. Sometimes on the weekend I would go to my nearby Peaches Records or Tower Records store and spend some of my hard earned cash on a few albums. Some of my best finds were albums I picked just by the covers. One time I chose this pretty young lady's album : Valerie Carter It has been a gem in my collection ever since. Where did you get your music? From her 1977 "" album Valerie Carter's "Face of Appalachia" written by Lowell George and John Sebastian: Face Of Appalachia or Face Of Appalachia
