The Light Always Changing The sadness of a Friday afternoon can be so deep - Woody Guthrie photo sad. I saw Christ this afternoon. He was a mechanic crossing the street and he watched my car go by him but he saw right into me and when I passed him I looked in the rearview mirror. And there he was looking right back at me. Christ can be anyone you see as you look back over your shoulder and find that figure crossing a road in the cold afternoon looking to you and your face - the one that has rivers of hurt running through it. I'm still driving on that road where conditions are best at nigh

Really enjoying this and looking forward to seeing them very much here in Sydney next Wednesday night at The Basement.

Yes, definitely in the car using the steering wheel as obligatory drum pad especially during "Side With The Seeds". This album is so perfectly suited to driving around town. My yet to be realised fantasy is that as the music pours out the windows of the car it will be recognised by some fellow driver on the road for the beauty that it is instead of the usual doof doof rubbish that is to be heard thumping from shaking, hotted up cars waiting to tear away from the red light.

Where to start with The Grateful Dead?
Fritz replied to reverandgroove's topic in Someone Else's Song
Yeah, and to "Workingman's Dead" I'd also add "Live Dead" and "American Beauty". In fact, get the box set "The Golden Road (1965 - 1973)". -
Beautiful.

Agreed. End of Autumn So what are we headed for here? I kiss my wife by the last embers of the fireplace the ones that refuse to warm us and once again collect a pile of crumpled clothes to take with me down to the music room to sleep another cold night alone beneath my pump organ. Smoking before bed on the steps where I made the first phone call to my parents - Can I come stay? You see, we're having these problems. I'm trying for something here for some clarity in the events that have brought me here to these steps in autumn tonight. My father gee-whizzed my mother fretting, "We alw

You came smiling softly Shyly moving, easy as a dreamer, into my world Then before I realized the danger I found myself staring into your eyes Somewhere in their colors I saw promises of things I'd never seen before I'ts all over; I've got to have you.

Knowing when you came to me that No one else would ever feel the same in my arms It's all over; I've got to have you Waking in the morning to the Tenderness of holding you asleep in my arms Dr

It's lunchtime, days are getting cooler here in the southern hemisphere. Sitting at my desk marking children's homework and listening to Grateful Dead Live at Winterland Arena on 1967-03-18 on my laptop. Doesn't get much sweeter for a work day.
