Happy Fourth of July for those observing and be mindful of both fireworks and/or too many hot dogs... Otherwise still on summer blogging sabbatical for a little bit longer. - A.B. 7/4/25

Today's albums are a bit point/counter-point: first is There's No Place Like America Today by Curtis Mayfield (1975), while the second is The World of Sousa Marches as performed by The Philip Jones Brass Ensemble (1995).
