Kid A. I wonder if anyone remembers her performing with The Bastards of Fate at the downtown library, Roanoke, VA, way back? She edges closer to warranted widespread recognition with a feature in Britain’s Guardian newspaper: “She’s the laptop lady from near the Blue Ridge mountains of Virginia who brings new meaning to the phrase ‘lonesome pine’”.

Hmm, first it was Laker song, David Sylvian, that someone claimed was not Laker’s creation. Now, Soundcloud informs me that someone else is claiming that Like A Banana contains copyrighted content!

Authenticity In Music. Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds.

I wonder why I’ve been listening to the new Nick Cave album so much recently? It struck me today, it’s because it’s music that only a man of age 55 (Nick Cave’s age) could make! This is no negative thing, no way. This album speaks in a quiet, humble voice, that it’s possible to make better music at age 55 than when at age 25. It’s a rare thing. Music of humility. It even kinda makes you look more favorably towards older years, more respectful. The songs are unassuming, beautifully constructed, & of course blend spirituality & dirty old man tendencies in a way only Nick Cave can.

i never imagined of all the possibilities it would be Beth Orton’s latest album, Sugaring Season, that i’m listening to most often.

“You want to learn the trick to turn

What’s not so pretty

Into something more beautiful

It’s the same place

That I learned to turn

What could be sorrow

Into some kind of mercy”

Beth Orton Something More Beautiful from Sugaring Season
