Song for Ferguson

Had a craving for the taste of blood
for the last few years, since I crawled out of the mud
Seems these days I want it more and more
turn the TV on, have to pick myself off the floor
Spent the last few months clenching my teeth
When I get sick it feels like relief
Sometimes I’m picking a fight when I sing
but there’s too much rage, I can’t do nothing
But Oh I can’t believe it
You heard the audio they caught him breathing his last
how quick you forget the past
how short your memory
It makes me wonder
when will the thunder come
it makes me wonder
when we won’t have to run
I know that I am lucky to still be breathing
I got arrested once and didn’t even catch a beating
Hold my breath a lot to keep down the stress
only works sometimes, don't know what to do with the rest
I could never put my faith in a system or a god
that could not recognize his many flaws
Sometimes I’m picking a fight when I sing
but there’s too much rage, I can’t do nothing
but oh I can’t believe it
another killer with a badge and his freedom
I know my wallet could be a gun
even with hands above my head
It makes me wonder
when will the thunder come
We're going under
Twenty eight hours gone

An Historic recommends:
Many pretty and intense songs. Clawhammer banjo and voice surrounded by various odds and ends. I recorded a wee bit of accordion on a cassette they released in 2011.

4 Miniatures for Automated Organ
by Carl Testa
Carl is a great colleague and I have performed with him several times. This is him providing ridiculously complex data to a MIDI controlled pipe organ. Great Nancarrow's Ghost!

I can't even begin to relate how much of a crush I have on this band. Compositions by Toby Driver, lots of aggressive, balanced and lush music in turn. So, so sweet.

There's more going on here than in most DS albums. Soft tones and definite "composition" make this a beautiful trip across the snow.

My favorite debut album from any artist, period.

Inspired by life in lockdown, Fuzzy Jones's new astral folk EP is sobering but playful, girded with expansive production and ample wit.
