Ravish’d
This blog is about music and me -- what I love and what I've learned.
I'm a musical amateur in the French sense of ‘lover of.’ But I’ve been listening deeply, passionately, and, I hope, intelligently for about 50 years and have discovered music and noticed things about it that people with ears and passion like mine might be happy to hear about.
[I’m Charles Thiesen, a writer (tech, journalism, novels, flash fiction). I live in a vegetarian co‐op house in Dorchester, MA with a cat and six other housemates only one of whom is my partner.]
I tweet as @ravishdears & @cthiesen
