#Blossom Dearie

[shoomlah]

Hey how does it feel to have the go fandom in the palm of your fucking hand rn (Btw you’re the best)

SO surprised and delighted!! I did these initial sketches way back in mid-August and had been slowly chipping away at them over the course of a couple months, so I was just anxiously nitpicking every little detail by the time I posted the finished art. The reaction has been so dang lovely.

...Can't believe I almost did this whole sequence with Crowley's glasses ON, what a fool I was 😔

(plus a couple little alternate ending sketches when I was still figuring out the pacing of the whole thing)

Aaaaand just in case anyone didn't get around to listening to the Blossom Dearie song I was referencing, here ya go:

She sang three of my favorite songs, and I told Alex Edelman his comedy special was my fave so it was a very successful night tbh. Sharif makes the best gin martinis ever. What else can you really say

Blossom Dearie - I'm Shadowing You (1973)

This song would be pretty creepy if it weren't Blossom Dearie singing.

There′ll be no escape, I'm getting out the tape and video too

Blossom Dearie, Flamingo I Blossom Dearie Plays April In Paris, 1956

[julio-viernes]

Del sencillo y fabuloso artículo de Elton John lo que me ha llamado más la atención es la cita a Blossom Dearie, cantante y pianista jazz- pop norteamericana que desconocía, con más de una treintena de discos en su haber. La citada "Sweet Georgie Fame" está en su álbum de 1967, "Sweet Blossom Dearie". En el siguiente de 1970, "That's Just The Way I Want To Be", tiene otra titulada "Dusty Springfield"; y en el siguiente de 1973, "Blossom Dearie Sings, Volume I", "Hey, John (A Tribute Song To John Lennon)". Por lo que se ve la estadounidense quería bien, apreciaba a sus colegas ingleses. Lo de arriba es "I Won´t Dance" de su segundo LP homónimo para Verve Records, 1957. Sweet Gene Vincent.

I've got a new song out inspired by Cole Porter and Blossom Dearie! It is a love song to verbose, soft bop jazz of the 1950s - and also it is literally a love song, it is for someone special. Of course, as usual, I did the album art, too. Hope you enjoy!
