Sunday 4/4/21
From the Stone Roses' soundcheck before their May 25, 1989 gig, one of the greatest in rock and roll history. Ian Brown singing "I Am the Resurrection."
"He was despised" from Handel's Messiah. I think about this a lot. I think about it every day.
Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong sing "I'm Putting All My Eggs in One Basket."
Josquin's Missa Pange lingua.
John Lennon's demo of "Free as a Bird."
John Coltrane's "Psalm."
Michael Hordern reading M.R. James's "A Warning to the Curious."
Spiritualized's "Lord, Can You Hear Me?"
The most precious commodity in this life is not love. It is not belonging. It's not family. It's not friendship. It's not safety. It's not even knowing that one will wake tomorrow. It is hope. May you have some. And if not, may you find some.
