Cass McCombs, “The Same Thing”

“…we’re cut from different sides of the same cloth…”

Doesn’t this sound like a chilled west coast folk cousin to Peter Murphy’s “Cuts You Up”? Same bass, same beat… It’s been going down really well today behind a precious last bit of sustained rough-drafting before the semester starts. The mp3 is free until Feb 29 on Spin’s Best of 2011.

Veronica Maggio,”Jag Kommer”
(Live @ Allsång på Skansen)

So sweet, so sad.

Gordon Lightfoot - The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald

The lake, it is said, never gives up her dead
when the skies of November turn gloomy.

I still get chills every time I hear this song, the internal rhymes (“the ship was the pride of the American side,” “with a load of iron ore, twenty-six thousand tons more”), the richness of his voice.

My elementary school years were set to my parents’ folk records, Lightfoot, Baez, Dylan, Collins.

“Fuzzy Math”
The Bots

I want to empower the richest Americans because they want a better rate of return, and the poorest of Americans must be responsible.
