I'm back you sons 'a bitches!

It's been a long time. I guess that happens when you get a big-boy job. I actually had day-time responsibilities and didn't care to think about a blog when I was away from work. How could I neglect all 3 of my readers though! For shame! Seriously though, if you're reading this I appreciate it! I hope that you enjoy my taste in music and maybe one day one of these songs will change your mood. That'd be good.

Here's what I have been listening to lately. Something about this song makes me feel relaxed and really happy. It's like listening to an old memory...a good one of course!

We, we will skate across the surface of the storm as if we're wheeling sea-birds.

It's nasty outside. Luckily, I had time to mow the lawn today before the storm. I listened to XTC's 'English Settlement' as I mowed. It's a fantastic album! Colin Moulding comes up with some of the best (pop music) bass lines this side of Paul McCartney. I always loved his song writing as well. Here's his song; Ball and Chain from English Settlement:



Andy Partridge's songs in general took a while to grow on me; but when I turned around I really understood what I was missing. Especially on English Settlement. Here's a cool live version of Yacht Dance from the same album.

Be safe and have a great weekend!

It's a nice day

I haven't left the house yet today. Man, just typing that makes me smile! Anyways, no thrills today; I just have a song that I feel fits the way I feel and you know, I hope it suits your mood too. Enjoy the day, it's a 'beaut! And while you're at it, enjoy one of my favorite guitar solos at about 1:38 into the song...
