pale horse – Truman Sinclair<\/strong>
You are beautiful, sitting in the summer evening, the sun setting over your shoulder. You are home. Tall grass scratching at my ankles, full moon rising as I walk home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Domoto – Geese<\/strong>
Soft, rich, resonant, emotional. Yet powerful, deep, and almost overwhelming. This song goes on forever and ever, round and round and round. Seeking shelter, something safe and warm. I found it in these melodies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Time Will Tell – Bob Marley & The Wailers<\/strong>
A warm summer breeze on the water, take me home! Bob Marley\u2019s sweet vocals bring me back to the screened-in porch on a sunny afternoon, or biking down a shady Main Street in the evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Strangers – Black Country, New Road for War Child Records<\/strong>
Everything good there is I have right here, right now. Beautiful people in the most beautiful place, let us run free forever between the mountains and the plains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Black Flowers – Yo La Tengo<\/strong>
Woke up on the floor, but there\u2019s nowhere I\u2019d rather be than here. Sunny days in the backyard, feeling like today could go on forever, and boy, I\u2019d like it to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take Me to the River – Talking Heads<\/strong>
Nothing like a body of water with your favorite people! And nothing like this album. And nothing like making dinner in cool places or dancing in the backyard or brushing your teeth to this song.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jack Straw (Live in Paris 1972) – Grateful Dead<\/strong>
My favorite Dead song (and my favorite live version of this song), I grew up to Jack Straw. Prying moss out from between the bricks and weeding the driveway on weekend mornings. Hiding in the neighbor\u2019s rhododendron bush, pretending it\u2019s our castle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Angelina – Pinegrove<\/strong>
Specifically the Skylight version. Paint peeling off the porch under the outdoor couch, smiling, giggling, and oh so high. \u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
