Deep Voices Thanksgiving 2023

With apologies to Bill Evans

Historically, during family gatherings, I’ve been asked to control the music. If you’re reading this, I feel like there’s a good chance you’re that person, too. For a music lover, you’d think this would be an easy job. But it’s not. It’s total punishment. Have you ever seen the meme below? That’s how I make playlists when it’s just for me. You want me to decide what everyone else should hear now, too? It’s impossible to do anything but go anything but lowest common denominator of palatability. Bill Evans strikes again!

So, for this Thanksgiving, I thought I’d do the work for you. Here’s a special Thanksgiving playlist that should appeal to all members of your family. Which includes you. My daughter has been blissfully waking up every morning to the opening Keith Hudson song, which I love, so I guarantee got the under-one and reggae dad contingents covered. This one is paywalled.
