Good grief.

in a 2006 interview, [Linkous] singled out a recording of Waits singing Gavin Bryars' "Jesus' Blood Never Failed Me Yet" as the one song that "sort of saved me when I had given up [making music]."

The songs are relatively normal length but for some reason are going through really quickly, even the longer ones.

by Nightjar Tue Aug 30, 2022 7:14 pm

Good grief.

The lyrics for "Spirit Ditch" include the line "horse-laughter is dragging pianos to the ocean", which was inspired by a scene from the Luis Buñuel film Un chien andalou.

Oh I see what Nightjar was getting at - the lead singer is no longer with us.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Tue Aug 30, 2022 7:16 pm
