Holding the Note (D. Remnick) Remnick authored one of my fave books of all time, "Lenin's Tomb", a history of the fall of the Soviet Union. I thought of him as an outstanding writer, but what was he doing writing short biographies of musicians? Glad he did. This are outstanding!

The Principled Politician (A. Schrager) This book was cited heavily in Rachel Maddow's podcast "Burn Order". It tells the story of Ralph Carr, WWII governor of Colorado, who stood against the internment of Japanese citizens during that war. An ugly but important part of U.S. history.

I've taken the big step, trying to learn "Pro Tools" What a nightmare! Pro Tools is a music recording program, perhaps too complex for me. We'll see.
