friday random elevenish: “soulful sinuses” edition
This week, honestly, just kinda happened. I mean, I was there, and did some stuff, but the actual occurrences are just a blur of meetings, hikes, headaches, and ’80s movies.
We did have our first frost of the season this week, and with that a new slate of mold and spore and plant particulate, leading me to take my first sick day in probably three years on Wednesday, as after about 30 minutes of trying, I just couldn’t focus through the gnomes hammering in my head, so I hung it up, went back to bed for a few hours, and spent the rest of the day watching old movies I’ve seen a million times before.
Honestly, I needed the mental health day, and it’s sometimes tough for me to admit that sort of thing.
And that’s really all I have to say about that. As for tunes this week, it’s a weird mix of rhythm & blues, early electronic music, and whatever else. Sure:
- “Topless Dancers of Corfu” – Dick Hyman
- “Livin’ for the City” – The Dirtbombs
- “Mama Told Me Not to Come” – Odetta
- “One Word” – Brian Eno, John Cale
- “Motel Room” – Kiss the Tiger
- “Little Movies” – Aaron Lee Tasjan
- “PIERCED ARROWS” – Hurray For the Riff Raff
- “I Don’t Care (Yo No Sé)” – Los Dug Dug’s
- “Hard Working Man” – Marcus King
- “Charmer and the Snake” – The Velveteers
- “Season of the Witch” – Joan Jett & The Blackhearts
- “Interstellar Overdrive (live)” – Nick Mason’s Saucerful of Secrets
- “21st Century Schizoid Man” – black midi
- “Didn’t It Rain” – Sister Rosetta Tharpe
