Thank kew Chuck, Than kew Gary.
Easter weekend. It was pretty. The flowers are blooming, familar faces appear before me, but meloncholy I take up with like a drunk to a bottle of whine.
I got a new album this weekend (remember when they were albums?
) An wonderful meloncholly masterpiece by Gillian Welch. Lord she is an underrated performer. It is called
Time (The Revelator) and contains several refernces to the Titanic sinking and Lincolns assassination, her wonderful version of The Elvis Presley Blues and finishes up with the sweetest lulliby I ever heard, it puts me to sleep, even sitting in the driveway.
That last song is "I Dream a Highway". It goes on for 14 minutes and 39 seconds. You have to hear it. I could only find this shorter version on youtube, but he captures the spirit well.
