Itzhak Perlman & Janet Guggenheim – Two pieces
An evening pause: Who says classical music doesn’t rock?

Madre Luna – Aelfheim

Michael Davis – Juggler
An evening pause: I saw Davis perform live in the Bahamas back in 1992. He was the warm-up act, and was far far better than the star attraction, which I don’t remember any longer. His style is so nice and silly and funny you just want to keep watching and watching forever. Part 2 of this performance can be found here.
Hat tip Tom Biggar.

Nanci Griffith – Love at the Five and Dime
An evening pause; Hat tip Tom Biggar, who made me realize that I had never previously posted any Nanci Griffith on BtB. Shameful!
