Why a music blog? Have you ever noticed how many people relate over music? The music we listen to is a window into our moods, our souls. Always temporal, evolving. One day it's the beat, the rhythm, the melody. Another day it's the lyrics. With it's ability to carry us away into another time and place, a cherished memory or a fantasy escape, music helps us transcend or endure the mundane. Music helps us make sense of painful experiences or confusing emotions, or safely, cathartically re-experience those feelings. And it has the transformative power to alter our mood for the better or worse. The kind of music we enjoy is a very personal thing, a matter of taste that cannot be imposed by another, but grows instead out of our own histories and sensibilities. And yet what pleasure to find others who like what you like -- you can share aural space with them without getting a headache or losing your mind. You can lead each other to discover new artists and genres. If you take the time to read all or the occasional entry, I hope you find a treat in this log of tunes.

I feel so back to myself now that I've restocked and then some my Robbie Robertson native tunes -- Classic Masters, Contact From The Underworld Of Redboy, Music For The Native Americans. I always thought that last title was Music For Native Americans, which has a different connotation than it does this way, which certainly makes it about the documentary, not the people! Either way it's great, but Classic Masters is still the best.
And the shopping continues, up next will be Patty Griffin, who's bringing her beautiful voice to town, so I shall prep. And it seems I must have lost plenty of Suzanne Vega in that car. And it will now be the third time I've had to buy Cohen's Ten New Songs. It's been a shop-aholic couple weeks, between buying art supplies, restocking the cds, getting more tea, and even hitting the clothing sales. Yikes! Well, now that I have the canvases in I can paint instead of shop in my free time. And that means listening to music!
