Visible Contents

" There's a dream where the contents are visible
    Where the poetic champions compose "

V Morrison , Queen of the Slipstream

Do I wish that the quote above was mine
Yea , if I knew what it meant. Still think that the lyrics are better than most and sometimes I think , terriifc.

As well , While trying to dodge the relentless barrage of mediocre TV , I tried WEDU , PBS. The feature was ' Nashville 2.0 ' a presentation on the blooming music non - genre called ' Americana '.

A melange of traditions and styles , mostly originating in bars and pubs - a word of mouth birthing. The names reflect the hybrid nature of the music. E. g. the ' Milk Carton Kids ' , the ' Mavericks ' , Alabama Shakes ' , the ' North Carolina Chocolate Drops ' etc.

I recommend the ' Milk Carton Kids ' but each group was a revelation. The producers even highlighted groups w/out a recording contract or reputation yet. Neato

Weather : warming and clouding up. we get 6 fairly nice days and then another cold wave. SO SO !
