Tuesday Morning Music Shuffle - Ragin' Full On Mix

I love warm summer nights... especially being outside and hearing the sounds of the world around me - natural and man-made. Crickets and train whistles and cars on the highway just on the other side of the hill and music coming from somewhere and the laughter of children and unidentified sounds that provide a thrill of fear or of wonder. 


Have you ever stood alone the in the dark Under the Willow and just let your mind run wild with possibilities?

"It leaps beyond its legs

It reeks of lemon pledge

in a cold fire

it’s a cold fire mother

the muppet and the midge

the leaks beneath the fridge

in a cold fire

it’s a cold fire and one

digs on the morning bloodlight

dig on the after after

even the shyest mouse with his head stove in"

" I love the instrumental track  

there’s no words that I gotta sing back
no “peace on earth,” no hippy shit
it’s best if you just got over it
I keep pressing repeat
cuz the instrumental track
can’t be beat" 

The Joy of Painting from Asterisk

 

Born in the USA was released when I was eighteen years old - around the time I graduated from high school.  Some of the themes of the album were beyond my experience, but I got I'm On Fire. Springsteen in his words and his vocals and the understated music captured effectively the unrequited desire that dominated that portion of my life. The L.A. band Brown Shoe recently recorded a cover of the song for Daytrotter. We told you about it here.
