According to play.com, the keyboard was despatched yesterday, and should be here in three to five days. The software's coming from Canada , and will be a week or so longer.   I imagine able I will be able to hold my own in a wee band, five to ten years from now .    You know the sort of thing, older musicians of variable quality, knocking out jazz standards of a Sunday afternoon.  That'll be me.  At any rate, I want to be able to do The Piano Has Been Drinking and Stardust at parties in a year or two's time.

Which is quite clever, really, because I'm absurdly flattered, I'm putting up links to blip.fm in Failbook and Twatter, AND I'll probably keep going back every day for the next 14 days...  I need to get out more, don't I?

I've been listening the last few days to Blue Valentine, and the Hooker from Minneapolis refers to Little Anthony and the Imperials , (she still has that record, but someone stole her record player, how do you like that?).   It would indeed be perfect music for dancing to with a young woman who has, perhaps, taken a few wrong turns in her career.

More free sheet music here , and here .

Zebrakeys .  Whilst I'm champing at the bit to get started...
