What are You Listening To? ~ September 2022

RIP Robby Steinhardt (first of the original Kansas lineup to depart from us).

Your future is managed, and your freedom's a joke
You don't know the difference as you put on the yoke
The less that you know the more you fall into place
A cog in the wheel, there is no soul in your face

Big Brother is watching and he likes what he sees
A world for the taking, when he's ready to squeeze

Currently listening to Rush ~ Permanent Waves.

My favorite band. Good to see Geddy and Alex the other week in London. That was great.

In the words of the late great Billy Joe Shaver, "You haven't lived til' you've heard Roy Acuff sing about Jesus and the great speckled bird."

Got pretty drunk again and day became night.
Barely an hour before midnight and I think it's time for some Verne Langdon and his Vampyre At The Harpsichord with Carnival Of Souls.

Makes me want to take my sorrows below a dark ships deck and drench the hull in a thick fog and smog of smoke. But there's never any smoking below deck so I send the clouds down the stream.
Hoping to sleep soon and to not dream a wicked dream.

I go through the same thing. A few years ago I left a shitty architecture firm to got work construction on an old employer's house he was renovating until I found something better. That summer could be defined by Brown Bird's Salt for Salt album, specifically the track Fingers to the Bone, as that was pretty much the only thing I listened to ony hour drive home for 6 months.

My fav song by them:

Love Tom Waits, especially his Glitter and Doom album.

My favorite album of his is The Black Rider.

 

[cigrmaster]

This song has one of the best intros in rock history. It is by Lou Reed and is called Sweet Jane. If you cannot appreciate it listen to it ten times then come talk to me.
