Last week, after a middling Wednesday of trying to sell and market real estate with mixed results, instead of throwing in the towel and wrapping myself in a Snuggie to watch the Celtics get eliminated, I did the only thing that made sense at the time: shook myself a small, ice-cold martini. It was just …
This might be the most sublime of all of Jobim’s melodies and therefore one of the most sublime melodies of all-time. When I was just starting to learn guitar, my dad and I went to a little clinic and concert that Charlie gave at the Munro Music store in Huntington, NY in about 1980. He …
