This is a sweet and intimate live stream from Christmas Eve: Peggy Hsu 許哲珮’s annual Dear Xmas concert being held at home this year, with Eric Hsu 徐研培 on guitar, Billy Fu on bass, and 許郁瑛 Yu Ying Hsu on piano.

They play Peggy songs, covers, and sprinkle in some holiday classics as well.  (tracklist back at YT) Peggy responds to comments and gives greetings; there’s a funny scene at around 49 minutes in when she tries to figure out the *various musicians that have autographed the white bricks on the wall over the years, and she realizes that one of the bricks has her wifi password -- quickly covering it with her hand!  XD

*including: Crispy, Wonfu, Yoga Lin, Paige Su, Fran Chen

A couple of jazzy tunes to end the week...

The instrumental single Rain from bassist Richie Goods & vibraphonist 魯千千 (Chien Chien Lu) was released in December, and the clip above is from the release show. The band for the performance is a bit different than the recording, and features a soaring vocal from Jonathan Hoard-Voc.

Richie Goods-Bass, Quintin Zoto-Gtr, Miki Hayama-Keys, Allan Mednard-Drums. Richie & Chien Chien play together in a few different ensembles.

The song is credited to Brian Alexander Morgan and Jaco Pastorius. [from Wikipedia: "Rain" is a 1997 single released by the group SWV. The musical backing track is based on *Jaco Pastorius's "Portrait of Tracy."] Jaco Pastorius was the bassist for the legendary band Weather Report.
