Well, where I'm living right now, It's currently - despite the heat - heading into autumn. Lots of trees changing colours, loosing their leaves.

I drive by a lot of corn fields on my way to work at the restaurant, and this is the song that pops into my head: plants waving in the breeze, browning in the autumn sun.

This whole album, Canadiana Suite, is worth a listen. Every tune is reminiscent of an area of Canada (except for "Marching In", which I can't figure out), and the Trio is in top form. Any jazz bass players who might have preconceptions of Ray Brown's abilities would do well to listen to this record, because he does some Scott Lafaro level acrobatics.
