Well, I am off on Holiday and will be taking some time off from whatever this thing is I'm doing.
By 2011 my batteries will be recharged again and I'll be regaling unfortunate unsuspecting with more
musical minutia, long winded diatribes, and outright lies. What's an old punk to do?
Future posts: Eduardo Mateo, Nikki Sudden, Dishrags, Bhundu Boys, Ash, Cecil Taylor, Mcrackins,
Lush, Tom Robinson Band, hellogoodbye, Zumpano, Paris 1919, Blind Idiot God, Crippled Pilgrims, Coolies, Shiina Ringo, Caribou, Baris Manco, John Kastner, Ben Orr, Loketo, Boukman Esperyans, Master Musicians of Jajouka, Purrkur Pillnik, Able Tasmans, Dead C, Hector Zazou, Mega City Four, Damien Dempsey, Little Willie John, Jazz Butcher, The Legends, Texas Instruments, Olof Arnalds....well, you get the idea.
I'll leave you with a nifty video by Welsh loungecore band Rheinallt H Rowlands comprised of Dewi Evans and the late great Owain Wright, he of the operatic voice. What a great song and video.
Happy Holidays To All!!! Happy New Years!!!
But if you're not feeling happy, don't let them beat you down. Things won't always be bad. I'm a very nonreligious person, but a wise priest wearing a cowboy hat told me something that I've never forgotten. Everyone is brought into this world with special unique gifts. We may not know exactly what they are, or what to do with them. But they are there within each of us. And this includes anyone who happens to stumble onto this little site and reads this post. So if you are feeling blue this holiday season, try to remember what I'm saying, because we're all important and anyone who thinks otherwise---well it's more a reflection of their own inadequacies and internal venom.
Well, sorry, for the Elron Hubbard moment. Get back to enjoying the holidays.
