I was listening to some ballads this morning and I started to think about the ones that are among my favorites.
A few obvious choices came to mind:
Nature Boy,
Naima, and
Angel Eyes.
But then I remembered how much I love listening to Keith Richards sing his lovely tune, Slipping Away.
I was on the phone last night with a good friend and I recommended this selection to him as an example of an almost perfect ballad. If you don't know this one, please give it a listen today.
If you already know of it, well, then you've got no excuse not to blast this - even if you're at work! It's a short week anyway.
