Achtung! It's a good time to buy the new Decemberists record on Amazon!

[Sad Navigator]

Help'd.

Is that a new Decemberists song?

Is that a new Decemberists song?

If it becomes an American folk tale, it could be eventually... I guess.

 

[Kerouac]

Yeah. Of late, I'm having a hard time getting excited about things folksy, pastoral, rootsy, or Americana-drenched.

You won't want my CD then.

Life's Rich Pagent is my favorite REM album and Reckoning is right up there. If this has that feel, I may have to give it a listen.

At least a few tracks bring that feel. And the other flavors on the album are good as well. Some of the harmonica on the record is of the Springsteen flavor, circa "The River" and prior. Some of the writing has a Dylan feel to it as well. Certainly worth checking out and is in regular rotation for me right now.


I personally like it. I must be part of the 1000s of people mentioned in the negative review SN linked. To that review I say, "whatever." I recognize it is not SN's opinion.

Well ok, you have me curious. I don't know enough Zappa to think of a quote that applies. Please share.

Blah blah. Dancing about architecture. Can't write written for people who can't read. Weasels. Poopie. Mud shark.

I will dig up some of it online and see if I want to pick it up. From your description, it sounds awesome.
