On hold to talk to the government about this and that.
What should be playing?
So What by Miles Davis. Not a lousy Muzak version either, but the original recording!
Sure, the fidelity is terrible and I couldn't make out much of Miles' muted trumpet or Paul Chambers bass, but that song has a great mid-range. Bill Evans, Coltrane and Cannonball Adderley have my toes tapping.
Say what you will about the Canadian government, and believe me there's a lot I could say, (proroguing Parliament twice! slashing funding to the arts, to hell with the environment, etc etc etc) but I will give them their due: their on hold service has great taste in music!
Keep me on hold a little longer! I don't mind!
