I like Josh Rouse! Play something of his album Nashville!
Like "It's The Nighttime" or "Winter In The Hamptons".

The flutes add a nice sort of retro flavor to it.

And while you're watching that lemon tree grow and produce fruit, I'll be up to my knees in snow. *grumble*  Wish I lived closer to the equator.  {#Sunny}

A nice Ray Thomas/Ian Anderson flute ambience here.

It has to be this weather, and the very ambiance of the day - I love all the music that's been played so far, including this song! And yes, it's a bit Nillsson-ish ("you put the lime in the coconut and drink 'em both down..."){#Sunny}

Bill, I'm making the transition from Seattle time to Gainesville time.  Still wide awake after the flight.  This set is making it all much easier....

I like the retro Brazilian/Spanish feel of this whole album. Rouse usually has a theme for each album—imagine that!—and he hits the mark with this one.

I respectfully disagree. I've heard the entire album and disliked everything except "Cotten Eye Joe", which is a 9 or 10 in my book. I submitted that song and it's stuck in infinite "reviewing" limbo land in the LRC/Upload area. This "Lemon Tree" song just totally sucks. To me, it just sounds like easy listening crap. Reminds me of elevator music. Sucko barfo=1.

The music of her laughter hid my father's words from me.

 

I came in part way through, and that's totally what I was expecting.  This is all right, but I gotta say I'd prefer the other.
