Dirty Magic
Dirty Magic I’m sitting here reading a blog or two and listening to some favourite music – Hannah Williams and the Tastemakers. (Her band is a rather obscure but very good young UK soul band in case you are one of those people who are interested enough to go and look. You will find some live performances of variable quality on the tube, I particularly like “Do Whatever Makes You Feel Hot,” We Should Work it Out” and “Tell me Something / Liberties.” ) I first saw them live supporting Jools Holland at the Larmer Tree Festival a few years ago and got a serious crush on one of her backing singers. Anyway, I digress. A blogger asked me why some of her comments were not showing up on my blog. I said I didn’t know, but I had seen one which I hadn’t noticed previously spring up from nowhere, plus I also remembered her not showing on the list of my recent responses. Then I wrote, “there must be some dirty magic going on.” And a whole new set of ideas opened up in my mind. Maybe it was the music. What I had meant to convey was the idea that there was the opposite of good luck happening; some malicious glitch in the site’s systems. Dirty Magic. But I was struck by the images the phrase immediately created in my imagination. Things which should be wrong but are somehow just right. Weird cosmic coincidence. Stevie Ray Vaughan’s half tone down-tuning. A miss use of the Force…..but not the evil dark side, just ….off beam. All really good sex contains some dirty magic in it somewhere doesn’t it? Like those wild Zandigal blogs. Or the look in username''s eyes in my dream the other night. Wow that girl is full of dirty magic. I mean my track record is as vanilla as the next guy, but every now and again vanilla and butter cream get mixed up with raspberry jam and dirty magic just happens. Or is it just the music? Maybe there should be a blues band called Dirty Magic…………. |

I will look them up....though their name reminds me of Gerry and the Pacemakers....are you old enough to remember them? I like listening to music while I blog...it often gives me inspiration but there hasn't been much dirty magic in my blogs lately....pity that. I might need to change the track. ~~Anais Nin~~

Ha haaaa! I doubt it, I can enjoy Taylor Swift and Megan Trainor with the best of them. But okay, I know what you mean, I do like some less mainstream and older music - blues, jazz, rock and roll etc. I don't expect other people to like what I like though, and I certainly don't think there is anything wrong with catchy pop music. I can like pretty much anything except country music, lol.
