    my extremely EXACTING HIGH STANDARDS restrict my academically trained ear to only a very LIMITED and SELECT few
    "truly artful" musical tastes:

    Chicago piano blues
    Texas blues & western swing,
    1947-58 jazz, 1958-last week jazz,
    torch songs, coolsville,
    all piano music,
    bluegrass, hep-cat,
    hymns and church music,
    chansons d'amour,
    Dwight Yoakum,
    Brazilian sambas do cariocas
    "Route 66" any and all versions

    certain old jingles, old children's songs like "The Teddy Bears' Picnic"
    Professor Longhair, Otis Spann
    "Mustang Sally"
    Willie Mabon's "I Don't Know"
    Gene Harris

    Ry Cooder
    "Maple Leaf Rag", civil war songs,
    Jimmy Witherspoon's
    "Baby Baby Baby" and
    "One Scotch One Bourbon One Beer"
    and i've heard some rock n roll i could tap my foot to.

    and that's it ... except for

    ragas, greek music, mexican conjunto

    but nothing else ... unless you count
    lounge lizard music from the 60s
    Edgar Myers, Bella Fleck,
    Newfoundland bar jigs,
    Bill Evans trio
    Fraser & Debolt, Bruce Cockburn

    mariachi - but only cuando está cargado con el sentimiento de la pasión del amor

    and of course Betty Roché covering the waterfront.

    A Lot of People Ask Me:

    "Lowell, where do you get your inspiration ?"

    And I tell them, it's been tough!

    I grew up with every imaginable kind of distraction.

    It was so hard to focus!



    1961 - just another typical evening at work

    Every day the same old thing.  Bongos, Tribal Dancing, Ritual Mambo Parties, Space Visitors, Fellini Film Crews, the occasional Cattle Stampede
    ... you just can't imagine!

    But I stuck at it. And no matter who was around, I taught myself how to get in touch with my inner spirit person where the pure thoughts reside.

    I said to myself, my easel is my temple.


    And to all those temptations who've "friended" me, requested marriage ... or who've sent in those au natural pictures and webcam invites, I have to say:

    "I am so sorry, but just look at her:


    my muse just wouldn't allow it."....

the art review:

well, I think the pictures, um...or the art that is, well...hmmmm, it's complex really ... rather ...but on the other hand, so to speak...I think, although I don't know anything terribly specific about your painting per se - actually - but it would seem ... well, at least one could feel, as it were, some, well ...rather, how does one say ...um ...a very  strong something of an overwhelming suggestion of a hint of an unmistakably definite je ne sais qua.....

we welcome little pictures and long comments of lavish praise in poetic verse, any language...we prefer cash...
