Mr. Record Man/The Circle of...eh whatever
I downloaded some music from www.emusic.com --sign up and you get 50 free downloads, no catch--this weekend. I've fallen in love with Patty Griffin. How could I not be listening to her for all these years? The best way to describe her voice is captivating. Breathtaking. So I checked out her album 'Impossible Dream' and I can't stop listening to it. Her music (and some Willie and Spoon) are the soundtrack to life right now. But I must recommend that you
check out Patty Griffin. This means you Chris.
It was overcast, cold and rainy, this weekend...great for this kind of music.
I also heard some good music last night at
WestSide Arts, a project my church puts on (disregard the title, as my church does actually now reside on the East Side of Providence).
Rebecca Pronsky and
Stefan Couture and the Campfire Orchestra. Great band name, right?
Also last night for some reason some of my friends and I kept randomly making references to
'The Lion King' and tonight on my way home from the TV station with my co-worker Barbara (that's right, I was on the local news tonight (a slow day for me really, in the morning I crashed my car into a bus full of seniors heading to Foxwood Casino, then I robbed them all at bayonnet point , and then this afternoon I built a dam across the Naragansset Bay out of Legos) on the radio in the car we heard Elton John's song 'The Circle of Life' from
The Lion King. It was kind of strange and very unimportant, like this entire paragraph.
