Nick Drake + Endless Summer

Love this mellow soothing mindscape...another year has passed, another season in transition...this forever reminds me of coming back from a romantic autumn leaf-viewing wine picnic along the SenGawa in wonderful Setagaya-ku long before the radiation ruined things...

Perfect song for a road trip in this Oregon sunshine, windows down, feeling good about the present moment and this great song. {#Sunny}

No punishment there in my book.  Music done well comes in all forms—I'm not sure what problem you have with sensitivity and breath.

Always seems to catch me in a remembering moment and mood...connects me to things melancholy and bittersweet...but good God, what a lovely (I concur and always thought so) Nick Drake-like arrangement and soft shifting vocals!  No place quite like RP...

Very cool/groozy sound. I was thinking it could be 1969, but alas, the album came out in 2002.

Recently awesome waves arrived in Tahiti.  The speed of these waves is pretty amazing. {#Sunny}

New research is showing that generally people who are told the way a movie ends enjoys the movie more.

I'm in the last 4 hours of a 28-hour shift configuring a new server room. This song sure hits the spot.

This just hit me right. We had a big, blustery storm, and the utilities were knocked out, so I lit candles all over the house and settled in with a book and my cats - after an hour or so, the power came back on.  I was weirdly disappointed.  So - I'm here, trying to recapture that lovely no-power vibe, and this song played, and I was back in candlelight (candelight?)  Beautiful song. {#Sunny}

I like this guy's album covers.  The one for Oh! Mighty Engine is especially enjoyable

Good singing, too

Nice to hear both this and Jon Redfern's I Love the Sun this morning; music for flying, at least in my mind.

Dull and twee though B&S are, they're edgy innovative experimenters compared to yer man Halstead. I can dislike B&S intensely, but Halstead goes in one ear and out the other, leaving no sign of his passing and nothing to actively dislike. Aural Mogadon {#Sleep}
