Be thankful and hallowed. Hurricane Sandy passed us. Most of us. Mostly.
And Sixto Rodriguez in being heard again (or for the first time).
for me it has been a first time and
I am just digging the heck out of the story and music of Sixto Rodriguez.
Most my people
and I
call
it Hopeful
and hope to sing along.
these are like treasures of a past unknown; like an old troubadour’s youthful yearning – which they are.
We have a lot of those old musicians with ageless intact passions here too.
Dennis McCarthy is back in town with a great sound in tow and on show.
The Roots Cafe, The Met, the Apartment, even the old Ramada Inn in Seekonk I hear. Old musicians playing anew. New words coming in like in old times
and the storms just barely not killing us. this time.
hallowed evenings indeed
