Hope you had the chance - or will have the chance - to see a lovely harvest moon September 18th and 19th. Some awesome photos here via EarthSky News. And more here, including why you see that red color and what farmers were doing with all the extra moonlight in the days before electricity.Leon Redbone's wonderful rendition of Shine On Harvest Moon, composed by Nora Bayes and Jack Norworth in 1903. If you enjoy Django Reinhardt, you'll also want to listen to Milton Brown's version here, "cofounder of western swing" and an important influence on Reinhardt. Of course, the musically sweet sound of the Hal Kemp orchestra in 1929.
