How to feel inspired and hard as rock every morning!

Music, my songs are the music of the gods!!!

…as ever these are subject to whatever it is i’m listening to at the time.

Expect new albums all the time. Which I certainly do not download illegally…because i’m stupid and like my collection oh so much.

BLOOD ON THE TRACKS

I’ve seen Dylan Three times now and he never fails to leave me swooning for times I never was a part of.

Inevitably, when critics praise a new Dylan album, they label it the “best since Blood on the Tracks,” and with good reason. Inspired by a crumbled marriage, and recorded after a tour with The Band had apparently re-ignited his creativity, Blood is among Dylan’s masterpieces. The album’s epic songs are well known, but its real high points are the shorter numbers — “You’re a Big Girl Now”, the flawless blues “Meet Me in the Morning”, and the sweetly devastating “Buckets of Rain”. These are songs of “images and distorted facts,” each expressed through tangled points of view, and all of them blue. — David Cantwell
