"I don't care how Christian we are. We have to get medieval with these people."

Here's an eye-opening story from the "other California." Long, but worth the time.


FMFM: Nick Drake, whose albums I have distilled into a very solid, deep single-disc collection. Some days I think he's become overrated as a cult hero -- as certain artists who die young and somewhat mysteriously often are -- but he did leave behind some elegant, ruminative and intense music. He was a fine guitarist too.

One of these days I'll learn how to upload an mp3 file so I can make this stuff easily available for you to sample.
