I was listening to Red, Hot & Blue on my way to work this morning. There is something very special about hearing Shane MacGowan growl out the lyric "a trip to the moon on gossamer wings".
there's something special to listening to shane growl out the lyrics to anything! egad, what an instrument.
Yeah, Waterboys! That album is amazing. Thanks for the recommendation, MB.
I love Sweet Honey in the Rock with my whole black heart.
sweet honey is truly an act of genius. harmonic improvisation has to be one of the hardest things to do in music. they make it look effortless. they make it sound sublime. they match exquisitely what me da used to say about how to make jazz come out perfect "from the top of your head and the bottom of your heart at the same time."
