A couple of days ago that Khayem kharakter posted a bee-themed video. That helped to prompt this post. You can call it an example of the hive mind. You would be wrong, but you can.
There are two other reasons for the post. The first is that it gives me an excuse belatedly to draw your attention to "Isidro", the fine new album by Rosa Bordallo that came out at the end of January.
The second, and most important, is to send a get well soon message to my brother-in-law Chris in South Africa. Chris is a professional bee dude (that is what is says on his business card) who has managed to turn his former hobby into a successful small business producing and selling high grade honey. He has been under the weather recently but hopefully will be back to his best soon.
Chris will take his hives anywhere there are plants that infuse the honey with flavour. He has placed them on mountains. He has placed them in forests. He would probably place them in jungles if there were any near him.
"Wild Mountain Honey" - Steve Miller
"Forest Honey" - Rosa Bordallo
"Honey In The Jungle" - Julien Poulsen & Professor Kinski (feat. Sochi)
Graham Parker is on the phone - he's not happy
ReplyDeleteIf you are alluding to 'White Honey' the only phone call in that song was to his dealer.
DeleteI was tempted to tell you both to beehive, but thought better of it.
ReplyDeleteGreat picks, Ernie, esp. Rosa Bordallo, who I've not heard before now.
And what a video to finish with.
Best wishes for your brother-in-law... Bees are wonderful, a Bee Dude must surely be too.
ReplyDeleteI thought you would agree.
