The solo record can be a treacherous pursuit.

Song of the day – 356: Factory Star

The entire album sounds great; not sure if it’s nostalgia talking, the thrill of forced recognition, but I like to think not, that I can still manage to retain discernment.

Song of the day – 303: Nova Scotia

There’s Feathers, and they’re great. And there’s Nova Scotia, and they’re pretty good too.
