Songs For Sunday 6: Lost In The Microverse
I'll be too busy Sunday to do this week's installment, so I'd decided I'd go ahead and post the list early so ya'll ain't kept from my witty chicanery and excellent song choices that perfectly evoke the mood of the theme at hand. Also read further I need ya'll's help on an endeavor I'm wading into. |
| 1 |  | John Phillips
John Phillips (John, The Wolf King of L.A.)
"Captain (The Mermaid)" - Carried out incestuous relationship with daughter for 10+ years, made really good music. Makes listening to his songs sort of creepy I wish I didn't learn he was raping his daughter but I did. Fuck you Wikipedia. |
| 2 |  | Townes Van Zandt
The Late Great Townes Van Zandt
"Heavenly Houseboat Blues" - Moving on to something less icky... TVZ is the greatest, didn't rape his daughter. |
| 3 |  | John Wesley Harding
Why We Fight
"The Original Miss Jesus Christ" - This guy rules, probably will review this tonight maybe won't but whatever. |
| 4 |  | Jim Ford
Harlan County
"Harlan County" - Fuck 'Justified' needs to use this song this season. They've used "You'll Never Leave Harlan Alive" every season so far and while I love the song they need to switch things up. They need Jim Ford's funky, boisterous tunes. |
| 5 |  | Richard and Linda Thompson
I Want To See The Bright Lights Tonight
"The Calvary Cross" |
| 6 |  | Bobby Charles
Bobby Charles
"Save Me Jesus" |
| 7 |  | John Wesley Harding
Dyanblob
"Phil Ochs, Bob Dylan, Steve Goodman, David Blue and Me" - the folkest artist name/album title/song title probably ever. |
| 8 |  | Nic Jones
Ballads and Songs
"Don't You Be Foolish, Pray" - A British folksinger of some note, somewhat surprisingly wasn't already in the database. |
| 9 |  | Nic Jones
Game Set Match
"Dives and Lazaras" - Oh my god that daughter rape thing is still really bothering me, what a terrible fucking monster. Wolf King my ass more like Awfulhuman King. |
