What’s up with the CDC COVID guidelines reversal? - https://mailchi.mp//whats-up-with-the-cdc-covid-guidelines

In case you missed the most recent Covid update (the medley was tacked on to the end of the last blog video): For a while, I was too shaken by the pandemic and the deaths to try to trivialize the suffering (in my mind) by putting out much music. However, somehow, life will go on and the healing power of music will go on forever, perhaps as vibrations after we are all long gone. So anyway, in addition to continuing to share Covid insights (as they occur) I will also continu...e to share music as it occurs. No disrespect to those who have lost loved ones. I have also. However, since I have been personally comforted by recording this music for you, I hope that at least some of you can smile with me for a few moments as you listen to some of my favorite songs. With that said: I was thinking about why the following songs are so popular, have stood the test of time, and why they feel so comfortable and satisfying to play and listen to. The songs were all written between 1927 and 1936. I may have first learned them from [] - https://www.drweiss.com/2020/08/11/happy-jazz-medley/ See more

I wanted to share this letter with all of you - as a physician my job has always been to advocate for the health and safety of all. I wrote this brief letter to the editor in support of wearing masks - a decision supported by the available science and one of the easiest things you can do to help slow the spread of COVID-19. Wishing you all the very best - stay safe and continue to wash your hands (for 20 seconds!), social distance and wear a mask! We can and will beat this! https://www.drweiss.com//seat-belts-matter-so-do-masks-we/

You all might know how much I enjoy Stevie Wonder and his music (and of course, his support for One World Sight Project)! One of the reasons is much of his music champions the ideas of love and equality, values that have always been near and dear to my heart. As we near another presidential election, remember that one of the strongest ways we can affect positive change is to VOTE! Make sure your voice is heard!

Since it’s Stevie’s birthday today (May 13), I wanted to share one more cover I did this time of I Believe (When I Fall In Love It Will Be Forever). This song is off the album Talking Book, often considered to be the beginning of Wonder’s classic period and his transition from child star to maturing artist. I hope you enjoy! - https://www.drweiss.com/2020/05/13/13595/

One of my favorite musical artists turns 70 years old today, and as the tributes roll in from celebrities and others all around the world, I thought I’d add my voice to the chorus. I was lucky enough to meet Stevie again at the Grammys years ago. I don’t remember what we were discussing in the photo or if he won that night, but he’s won 25 Grammy awards so the odds were definitely in his favor . Stevie’s music inspires people all across the world, and inspiration is something we could all use right now. I recorded a piano cover of his classic, My Cherie Amour, believed to be written about his girlfriend while attending the Michigan School for the Blind! Happy 70th Birthday to the legend, and we wish you many more! - https://www.drweiss.com/2020/05/13/my-cherie-amour/

Angel from Montgomery is a song written by John Prine, who passed away yesterday from COVID-19 at age 73. He was a unique and singular talent and will be missed. Prine wrote Angel from Montgomery after a friend suggested writing another song about old people, referring to Prine’s songHello In There. Although Prine had said everything I wanted to[about seniors] in ‘Hello In There' he was intrigued by the idea ofa song about a middle-aged woman who feels older than s...he is[Eventually] I had this really vivid picture of this woman standing over the dishwater with soap in her hands.She wanted to get out of her house and her marriage and everything. She just wanted an angel to come to take her away from all this. [from Wikipedia] In memory of this gentle soul, who is ‘gonna get a cocktail, vodka and ginger ale’ up there right now.

All Things Must Pass was a song written 50 years ago by George Harrison. I didn’t previously know this, but the lyrics were originally written by Lao-Tzu (ca. 6th century BC), who is traditionally considered the author of the Tao Te Ching and the founder of Taoism. Timothy Leary, a Harvard professor and advocate for the use of LSD to expand consciousness, compiled his version of the poem from a collection of English translations. George Harrison then modified Leary’s version and added the music. I’ve slightly modified the lyrics for this global pandemic version and have found that it’s given me inspiration, perspective and optimism in this dark and challenging time. I hope it does the same for you. Enjoy.

Hank Williams recorded this classic song in 1949. Elvis Presley thought that it was probably the saddest song he’d ever heard. Bob Dylan wrote: I didn’t have to experience anything that Hank did to know what he was singing about. I’d never heard a robin weep, but could imagine it and it made me sad. Songwriter Harlan Howard coined the phrase Three chords and the truth to describe the necessary ingredients for country and western music, alluding to the familiar simplicity... of country music and the paramount importance of the truth of the story. Hank Williams wrote this song with only three chords (I-IV-V) but my arrangement was inspired by Leon Russell’s recording which subtlely reharmonizes the song with some extra chords. Because of the importance of the lyrics, I’ve decided to sing this one a rarity because I do not consider myself much of a vocalist. And be sure to listen for the lonely whippoorwill chirping at the end! I’d like to dedicate this performance to Michael and Fred, my friends in Nashville. Thanks again to Michael for taking me to the church of country music, the Ryman Auditorium for the first time. Thanks [] - https://www.drweiss.com/20//02/im-so-lonesome-i-could-cry/ See more
