Happy retirement, Mark! The end is in sight!

Love that Isley Brothers track and I’m looking forward to diving deeper into your trip-hop recommendations!

Happy weekend!

Thanks Andres, hard to believe the end is right round the corner! Before you know it I’ll be living in the UK sending you DMs for advice on turntables!

Wow, what a fantastic Act III you and your wife have just around the corner, Mark. I am not quite there yet with retiring, but my wife and I truly believe in living each day and making the most of our time here. We have had a rough start to 2024 with the passing of a couple of friends and another who is ill. We, too, firmly believe in living life rather than existing! I am excited to hear about your next adventures. "Joy In The Journey" will undoubtedly venture down new roads as you enjoy new adventures.

On a side note, there was also a very obscure '60s garage psych band out of Michigan called The Index. 😎

Thanks Michael. Sorry to hear about your rough start to the year and for your loss. I’m keeping you in my thoughts. It hasn’t quite hit me yet of what life is gonna look like but can’t wait for it to unfold!

Congratulations on your retirement, Mark! That’s gotta feel good— especially with something so exciting to retire “to.” Glad to be along for the ride for the 3rd act.

P.S. Not sure if it aired everywhere, but “Who’s That Lady?” was used in a shampoo ad here in the states, and that… was my on-ramp to the Isley Brothers. lol.

Thanks Kevin, it’s definitely an exciting time! Oh yeah, we definitely had that “salon selectives” shampoo commercial (had to google to remember the name)!
