Day 13

Pink Floyd - Delicate Sound of Thunder

 

[LeSamourai]

March 12 - The tolling of the iron bell calls the faithful to their knees.

Sufjan Stevens - Seven Swans

Fewer bells than some other Sufjan albums, but more faith... (Just got this as a PIF from @Fleetwood-Matt ... Thanks!)

 

[Wicked Dreamer]

Day 13: The Great Gig in the Sky

Mariah Carey - #1’s



An all-time great vocalist with an insane vocal range!

 

[Yer Ol' Uncle D]

March 11 - Thought I'd something more to say.

From I.R.S Records excellent No Speak series of the 80's and 90's...



Steve Hunter - The Deacon

Day 10: And then one day you find ten years have got behind you.
The War On Drugs - Lost In The Dream

My favorite album from 2014 by a good margin and also one of my favorites all time.

March 14 - "I am not frightened of dying, any time will do, I don't mind."

Sister Rosetta Tharpe ~ Gospel Train





There never was a vinyl release by The Word, but I really like this version as well.

I LOVE that The Word album. Hopefully it gets a vinyl pressing at some point. I played that CD all the time. Robert Randolph and John Medeski just kill it.

I haven't listened to it in a while, gonna play it next! And those early Robert Randolph Family Band albums were so good, but I've kinda fell off with him.

R.E.M. - Up

This was R.E.M.’s first post-Bill Berry album. When The drum decided to step away from the group they could have broken up but Stipe, Buck, and Mills still had something to say and carried on as trio.

Yeah I haven’t kept up with him either. I saw him open for John Mayer back in the mid-00s he can absolutely shred.

Wilco - Summerteeth

Jay Bennett and his Brian Wilson-esque production include some big ding dongs on the first track here. I wonder if they were actual bells or more of a protools type thing?

Day 13: The Great Gig In The Sky

The Allman Brothers Band - Eat A Peach

If you’re playing a great gig in the sky you would hope those skies are blue.

Day 13: The Great Gig In The Sky Blue Sky

Day 14: "I am not frightened of dying, any time will do, I don't mind."
Grateful Dead - Shakedown Street

Is not being afraid of dying the same thing as being grateful to be dead?

Day 14

Johnny Cash - American VI: Ain’t No Grave

 

[Wicked Dreamer]

Day 14: "I am not frightened of dying, any time will do, I don't mind."

oh i’ll be free
just like that bluebird
oh i’ll be free
ain’t that just like me

David Bowie - No Plan



more “accepting” dying rather than not minding.

March 15 - Money

Kenny Rogers - The Gambler

“You never count your money
when you’re sitting at the table.
There’ll be time enough for counting
when the dealing’s done.”

 

[imtheocean]

March 15 - Send lawyers, drugs and Money, the shit has hit the fan.

Warren Zevon ~ Excitable Boy
