Shirley Horn – You Won’t Forget Me
You Won’t Forget Me is a 1991 studio album by Shirley Horn. Miles Davis made his last appearance as a sideman on this album. “The music here is mostly taken at a very leisurely tempo, and the spare arrangements allow plenty of room for the music to breathe, proving that less is often more. The only complaint is that such spaciousness generates is a certain sameness to the material, but this is leavened by the guest appearances of Thielemans, Davis, the brothers Marsalis, and tenorman Buck Hill.” – Jim Newsom/AllMusic.

#ShirleyHorn sang in her tribute to #MilesDavis, this magical evening at #CarnegieHall ... "You won't forget me, 'Tho you may try .., I'm part of memories too wonderful to die ..." and we couldn't have know, then, that I would equally feel the same sentiments about her, just a short decade later. It's no wonder my world feels just a little dimmer, now. #ChapterNextSOUL #UnFilteredEDEN #EDENis63 (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFiYLmZBfyx/?igshid=qsrjaw7keyo9

Lyric of the Day
When the day is over and the blackness creeping in
and all you're left with is where you've been
your roads are all travelled your races are run
you can still be glad to see the sun
An overcast day, a habit, a maze
running through life in a fog and a haze
May you see the light
may it break through
here's to life, here's to love, here's to you
This was inspired by the Shirley Horne song “Here’s to Life”

🎹🎧🎤🎼@courtneymislife reminded me that writing #theshedding was not totally for naught or in vain. There was so much that went wrong with promoting that release-I almost canned it because all signs pointed to the Universe completely sabotaging the release (...and in many ways it did, lol). BUT it's good to know that the message(s) reached its "intended audience". Thank you for showing love to these work. I appreciate you.❣️#throwbackthursday #rogiérs #rogiérsfibby #fibbymusic #singersongwriter #herestolife #shirleyhorn #indieartist #indielabel #rnbsoul #jazzvocals #singermusician #vevoartist #soulsinger #rnbpop #messeduponlove

August 8,2005.... 12 years ago today.... my sister Crystal @thedressedlesbian and I lost our mom.... she was 56.... colon cancer...Last year, 2nd season .... when I was a cast member on #fromthebottomup we shot this scene.... it's at the grave site of my mom and the song I am singing is a song my mom always sang to me. It's called #HeresToLife by #ShirleyHorn. For some reason it never aired (I guess it wasn't reality tv enough to air) 🤔 but I will never forget this moment. Thank you @staceymuhammad for capturing this. I share it in remembrance of my mom today. Thanks @centrictv online for having it up on the website. #RIP mommie I MISS YOU.

TONIGHT - on my @kmhd_jazz_radio show: Vintage #vinyl vignettes about midcentury life in the crowded city (as you can see on the poster I made) . 7 to 9 pm PST 89.1 fm in #Portland stream it live at kmhd.org (9 pm Central, 10 pm eastern) . Over this past year, I think those of us living in the cities of the USA have felt the challenges of living in a city AMPLIFIED as we've experienced difficulty in getting personal space, at the same time feeling isolated WHILE being surrounded by so many people. Additionally, the injustices & extreme inequalities are inescapable, particularly during difficult times. The city has never felt so crowded. . I've always loved crafting stories using songs as chapters. And so tonight, I'm using music to paint a portrait of city life, the excitement, joy, & lament. This episode will primarily feature records from the 1960s including #MarvinGaye, #EttaJames, #ShirleyHorn, #ClydeMcPhatter, #IrmaThomas, #JoeBataan, & many others. . I hope you will join me on #KMHD . #vintagevinyl #soulmusic #jazz #theBlues #RhythmAndBlues https://www.instagram.com/p/CIodAL6hlUV/?igshid=4ayb9wt5uj8l

Do you know I never planned on being in the FILM business? My first love was MUSIC. It's what I left college to pursue. It's what moved me from Austin to Philadelphia in '89 in hopes of meeting my muse, #PhyllisHyman who was signed to Philadelphia International Records, home of #KennyGamble and #LeonHuff. Not only would I move there, get to tour briefly w/Phyllis, but I also got to stand in the sacred rooms of PIR Studios, where I would meet Kenny and Leon, and #DexterWansel and #BruceHawes. It all happened because of MUSIC. After Phyllis' untimely death in '96, I would encounter another lady whom I equally loved, #ShirleyHorn, backstage of her concert at The Academy of Music Hall. That friendship was sustained 'till her death in '05, but produced a songwriting credit on her Loving You release in '97. This photo represents that intersection between my love of MUSIC and my curiosity with FILM that began in '92, with this first headshot. I remember consciously placing the microphone into frame to represent and remind myself of my first love. And while I would record three projects and several singles in the years to follow, the balance of Film vs. Music is overwhelmingly in favor of Film. One would think that would make Film my obvious love, now. But I've discovered something that I should have known and I purposed to never forget, and yet, I did. MUSIC has saved my life more times than I can write in this sitting. MUSIC still lifts me when I'm at my deepest and surprisingly, I have never married the two worlds I inhabit. Why am I not a #MusicSupervisor in Film or TV? Why am I not creating work for those artists that I truly love and draw strength from, daily? Is this my real interest in PROJECT Management? See, I mistakenly fell into the proverbial trap that many fall prey to ... having a thirst for knowledge and understanding doesn't always mean you need to be in the center of that focus. Sometimes, you're more effective doing what you LOVE as a help to others. This is my Journey, now... To Be of Service in the place where I truly belong.

Remembering the great Shirley Horn as the month of May commences. Today would have been her 83rd Birthday. Here's to life! 💖 ⏳🕆♾ 💖 Watch: Shirley Horn – Here's To Life (1994, HD Live)" https://youtu.be/GmemZM69x6E Watch: Shirley Horn - A Time For Love (Live) https://youtu.be/vSL5AHhpi6U Biography: "Shirley Valerie Horn (May 1, 1934 – October 20, 2005) was an American jazz vocalist and pianist. She collaborated with many jazz greats including Miles Davis, Dizzy Gillespie, Toots Thielemans, Ron Carter, Carmen McRae, Wynton Marsalis and others. She was most noted for her ability to accompany herself with nearly incomparable independence and ability on the piano while singing, something described by arranger Johnny Mandel as "like having two heads", and for her rich, lush voice, a smoky contralto, which was described by noted producer and arranger Quincy Jones as "like clothing, as she seduces you with her voice". Although she could swing as strongly as any straight-ahead jazz artist, Horn's reputation rode on her exquisite ballad work." ------------------------------ 🎶 "Shirley Horn / Here's to Life" https://youtu.be/b0_5xlzl1e8 🎶 Shirley Horn - A Time For Love https://youtu.be/vSL5AHhpi6U 🎶 Shirley Horn - " Solitary Moon"" https://youtu.be/68bKZ8H0yhs 🎶 "Shirley Horn - "All My Tomorrows""https://youtu.be/w7rr_3LMH28 🎶 "Shirley Horn - "Quietly There(Wynton Marsalis (trumpet))"" https://youtu.be/ur-lNeq4pQM 🎶 "Shirley Horn -"Estate(Summer)" (Joao Gilberto) (Music:Bruno Martino, English.
