“Down Under” is one of the all-time classics form the 80s.
How I haven’t already done it in 493 (including both 365s) is a mystery that
will forever remain unsolved. It seems like just yesterday that I was a child
at UMASS watching Knuckle Sandwich cover this jam at some house party. A
glorious Saturday to all. Happy 70th birthday to Claudia. We are
looking forward to going and celebrating with her in a bit and then we get to
go to our favorite place, The Hunseys. It’s going to be a funky good time.

- Jefferson Jay - Originals - 128 “In a Circle, I Sing” by Jefferson Jay
I wrote this song, who knows when, awhile ago. The lyrics
might have even come from longer back, but I don’t remember. Until a few
minutes ago, this song was called "The Circle of Life." I never saw the Lion
King. I know. I’m like the only one who hasn’t in the world. I asked my wife,
Leanne, “The Circle of Life” is a song from "The Lion King" right. She
immediately started chanting and parading our little dog Nigel around above her
head like some de facto Jungle King. I changed the name of the song in my head
that instant. I mean we can share
song names, but for some tunes you just got to have respect. Someone should
tell that to Bruno Mars. I think he must have missed that day in song naming
class
Last night was the final show of this Springs’ Acoustic
Evenings at the Athenaeum Series. It was indeed a lovely affair. Much love and
many good feelings. Huge thanks to everyone who played or attended this
Springs’ series. It is always very rewarding making memories that come with
such special sensations. Love. Before you know it will be fall and we’ll do it
all again. I love this life.
Operation 365 2 - Jefferson Jay - Words - 128 “Get Yourself
One of These”
Folks, there’s a lot of words to say and a lot of advice to
give, but some days that shit just doesn’t sit on the tip of your tongue. When
this happens to me I hit record and let ‘er fly. Every once in awhile, the
universe smiles on you and you slip and/or step into some quality wisdom. Today
is one of those days. So be like me, here today folks, and get yourself one of
these. You’ll never regret it. It’s the gift that lasts a lifetime. Love.
