Greetings from Laurel Canyon!
I met a girl who sang the blues / And I asked her for some happy news / But she just smiled and turned away / I went down to the sacred store / Where I’d heard the music years before / But the man there said the music wouldn’t play
And in the streets, the children screamed / The lovers cried and the poets dreamed / But not a word was spoken / The church bells all were broken
And the three men I admire most / The Father, Son and the Holy Ghost / They caught the last train for the coast / The day the music died
I guess one could say, “Any day is a good day to release a new song.”
Honestly, I’m a bit stumped on what to report this week. I did give a nod and a wink at this week’s stack of new vinyl. This Idelic Hour set shows that even in dark times, music thrives.
For this week, I’ll let the music repeat…
And the three men I admire most / The Father, Son and the Holy Ghost / They caught the last train for the coast
Keep the faith and rock on.
Idelic Single of the Week: The Cure – Songs Of A Lost World (LP)
Keep throwin’ kid.
