Musical Interlude: Music Man

Live Music

Boz Scaggs (Live)– LOWDOWN

The classic ‘white soul’ jam. Boz Scaggs was one cool dude. Not much to say here, but check out my supa dupa soul sistas in the front of the stage. Dem girls are getting it!

Michael Franks (Live)– THE LADY WANTS TO KNOW

I love this song.  Always have and always will. Michael Franks has such a soothing voice. I asked Miles Elevethauer (SL avatar) to play it for me during one of his jazz sets. Also, see this wonderfully beautiful rendition of this song, with Chuck Loeb, Dennis Chambers, and other great musicians, live in San Javier in 2007.

Michael Franks– DOWN IN BRAZIL

80’s R&B

Sherrick– JUST CALL

I would dance around in my bedroom singing this song. I just knew I was going to marry Sherrick. Sadly, he died in the early 90s as a result of years of cocaine abuse. He was such a cutie though. I had always wondered why I never heard more from him. Like Rick James used to say (rest his soul), “cocaine is a hell of a drug!”

Curtis Hairston- I WANT YOUR LOVIN

Recognize his voice anywhere… such a great talent. And my goodness, his cheek bones are to DIE for! I am jealous )

From My Lips: December 14

Hi Ho Everyone!

The weekend is almost over and it went by too fast. Had a pretty calm weekend, thankfully and most of it was spent AWAY from SL. LOL, I lurve this game but sometimes you just have to push away from the computer!

Feelin’ pretty casual and street, so I threw together a couple of looks. I even brought along a lil shoulder pal for a quick snap. You won’t see me with this sort of prop too often, so get your good giggle in now.

My Road Dog

He has no name really, so I’ll just call him “Homie.” Picked him up from this cute little shop called Shione. I like the way he silently observes all that is going on around. He sits right on top of my cute cropped jacket from Sn@tch. Not a lot of chatter from Homie, just constant companionship when I need it. Now that’s a road dog….

Da Hustla

Homie needed to chillax for a bit, so I decided to hit the grid solo. I ended up everywhere and nowhere really. But I was ever so happy to sport this new hair from Mau and Mei (M&M). Love the movement on this braided style. Can’t freaking believe this is free.. yes folks, free! Comes with beaded versions (yes multiple types) and non-beaded versions. Double doses of both Armidi and Maitreya keep me in hustla mode– all day, every day.

Alright kiddies, time is running out. Monday will be here before you know it. Get shopping, get tp’ing, get going!  If you have not done your SL holiday shopping yet, be sure to check out the closing sale at Samara Studios. Reel Expressions is having a sale on gift cards, which is perfect for the AV that already has everything! Also, I have mentioned LaLa (FooFoo) in other posts, but that 25L sale ends in like 2 or 3 days. So scramble on over there to pick up last minute basics for yourself.

Until next time,

Kiss Kiss
