Records, arrangements, and the pleasure of listening closely.

In the conversation

Preferring the choir is fine. I just don't want that preference to become a rule for every track.

I'd rather leave with one artist to listen to than a longer list of categories to remember.

Agreed. A new arrangement still has to earn the listen. Familiarity isn't the only reason somebody might dislike it.

The resemblance is interesting even if nobody can produce a straight line between the dances.

Don't strip the culture out of it, though. People had to want BET in the first place.

Sometimes I just want the familiar record done well. Not every anniversary has to reinvent it.

An anniversary release with something I haven't heard is an easy yes. I don't need the same album in another box.

Some brands only exist because people love the founder, though. You can't move that into an email list.

The clippers helped keep those conversations moving. Acting like they added nothing is a little convenient.
