glisten: minimalist
Short Hut today; blame the Spurs/Lakers game (GODDAMMIT!), an acting piece I'm trying to get ready for Sunday and my continuous machinations toward finishing my moving in and spiffing up process. Hopefully I'll be done tomorrow and can look into shoehorning some themes into this space. Meantime, here's a pretty sweet (if scantily clad) doubleplay:
Leadbelly and the Golden Gate Jubilee Quartet - "Rock Island Line"
Purchase "Alabama Bound" from Amazon
-
Ledbetter's "Songwriter Hall of Fame" listing
-
Some background on the history of the song.
-
The Lead Belly Page
=================================================================
Johnny Cash - "Rock Island Line"
Buy "The Essential Johnny Cash: 1955-83" from Amazon
Rarely has the word "essential" been so appropriately used.
-
Johnny Cash.com
-
Buy posters of Rock Island Trains
