Some kind of savior singing the blues
A derelict in your duct tape shoes
Your orphan clothes and your long dark hair
Looking like you didn't care
Druken Angel
Blood spilled out from the hole in your heart
Over the strings of your guitar
The worn down places in the wood
That once made you feel so good
Drunken Angel

Wow, wow, wow. Some Blues, the Joshua Tree Inn, a cool-ass motorcycle helmet (I can't understand
why there aren't more of those around), the Joshua tree itself and, hmmm, I can't quite make out who
the trio is. Gotta wait until I get home tonight to give this great mix a listen. Thanks BM

Thanks Tednindo. I'm just too bloody old to recognize someone so young. Now it is clear the one in front
is Keith. Man-o-man, 1969, trippin' in the desert.

Those cosmic "blues" are Asteroid #4 and "Hold On," blood meridian's song of the year for 2008. Written by Ryan Van Kriedt, with vocals and harmonica by Scott Vittorelli, both playing guitar with Eric Harms. Adam Weaver on bass and Damien Taylor on drums (rhythm sections always get neglected). Fuckin' amazing band, and no, I never got my prize (see the Asteroid #4 thread on Other Music, with a great post and vid from Scott Vitt). I'll take an early release of that new record they're recording. Should be awesome. 8)

Great cosmic american music mix (I'd really like to hear part I -- anybody?). It is hard to put a finger on this descriptor, but there is a certain musical sensibility and I hear (feel?) it. A certain mythos, yes, but about as good of one in music as there is.

Stellar stuff - Joshua Tree is my favorite place on earth, and I don't think Gram's realization of this music is all a myth. I'll never tire of hearing Gene Clark, and great to hear Asteroid's "As Soon As Dawn" and that extended "A Parting" from The Quarter After (what's that from?). But where are Spindrift and Gram Rabbit? Okay, GR probably a little more on the kozmic side, but these are artists rooted in that mythos and drenched in the wide open spaces of the desert. :)

Incredible, she touches you. No matter what you do. She is there for you (someone take this as a chorus to milk!)... anyway, besides the
bland search (for fame and fortune?), you have again captured something. No matter what there is -- a fine line to tread and its passage delivers -- not only 'goods' but good. AS boring AS country can be, ye made it something palatable and free, to be, 'N' BE. no way, it ain't nothing but...the way I wanted it to be... no way...it ain't...it ain't///
