Be shaken. Be stirred. A whimsical wham-bam of exotic enchantments, sleazy oddities, pop fancies, and swingin’ slingers broadcast from Ridgewood, NYC’s very own Shangri-Lounge. Best served chilled, garnished with signature swizzle schtick.

I'm reading about song writer Cindy Walker, she wrote the Orbison song, Shahdaroba. Such a different title it sent me on a search. Don't yet have any clue about where the title came from but Cindy Walker had an amazing career. Bing Crosby to Bob Wills to Eddy Arnold to Ray Charles to Elvis Presley as well, of course, Roy Orbison, recorded her songs. That is just short list to highlight the range.

Yes, I had been reading about her, too! She had also written his hit "Dream Baby"

Just chilling with your smooth tunes and my dog. Beautiful summer's day here. I watched that brilliant moon setting at 4:30am. It now sits brightly above you folk I hear.
Avatar 7:13pm
shangri-lounge:

That sounds amazing, Scott! I feel like most of my playlists must hold up pretty well on your end. More so than here in NYC.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:15pm
Scott67:

Hah! Yeah Shangri-la. But you guys need the warm rush and up-beats. More than us at the moment.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:16pm
Scott67:

You do it well Shangri-la ☆
Avatar 7:16pm
shangri-lounge:

Hahah, yes, true. I'm glad your dog digs the smooth tunes because my cat just keeps clawing my couch as it goes on, and making direct eye contact with me!!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:17pm
Scott67:

So it's being a cat then 😎

Ha, yes. He totally is! I should have become a dog person. I missed out.

Is it like going back to college? Can I still make it work?

Scott67:

I couldn't be anything else, Gus is my brother from another species. I fed a friend's cat for a week while she was at the beach. She's a beautiful creature, a bit dog like in nature. But still impenetrable emotionally.

Pauly from Clifton:

@Scott67, sounds like a nice morning your way! @DJShangri-La, one of my cats is lying on his back enjoying the cool sounds. The one who's more like a dog.
Avatar 7:24pm

I like to say that I prefer cats who are more like dogs and dogs that are more like cats, but I might just be full of it!

My cat Otto is a good guy - means well. He's just a bit laissez faire.

I need to create conflict and drama in my life though - thanks to the Covid shutdown. He provides some of that for me!! Ha
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:26pm
Scott67:

A dog is your open university. They teach us so much, more than we teach them. We've had a bond for thousands of years, it's now I hate, intuitive communication between species. If you are prepared for the strong bond they will feel for you.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:28pm
Scott67:

Hate??? I hate auto correct!! I wrote, innate.
Avatar 7:30pm
shangri-lounge:

I've never really had a dog - perhaps when I leave NYC - the day will come! It's something I'd like to try! Perhaps I will find my own Gus! Everyone deserves a Gus, right? Ha!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:31pm
Scott67:

Hey Pauly, dog cats or cat dogs. It's often due to the owners approach to the animal. Nurture over nature. That's why there are no bad dogs, just lousy owners.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:34pm
Scott67:

Sure do Shangri-la! I'm lucky to have met him at 9 months old & offered to adopt him from his dying owner. That's 7 years ago now.
Avatar 🍒 Swag For Life Member 7:35pm
Pauly from Clifton:

@Shangri-La, yes! Everyone deserves a Gus! Mine during university was a mutt named Spike. The smartest dog I ever knew. @Scott67, you are so right!
Avatar 7:36pm
shangri-lounge:

Someday it will happen for me! The stars will align. I'm looking forward to it!

Pauly I had a Spike, he was a lovely fella, adopted from my ex's daughter. I have had 4 dogs through my life. Gus the 5th,

Shangri-la, all my dogs found me, I've never sought a dog, they just happen. Like life. 😊
