I'm hopping to find more music than wind...
That's not to say I haven't totally enjoyed these three tunes....
but,
-- got anything new to add ...? --------
I'm hopping for more music like this tune...
ok.... can I leave you with John Lee Hooker's musical suggestion
" healing me, may help to heal you too...! "
Again,
I find myself looking South towards my nieghbors,,,
and I find myself with-out the tunes that make my life
brighter...
(excuse me for being a dip-shit, but I think that there is something
in the concept,
of "we the people",
that still rings bells up north...)
MORE MUSIC PLEASE
if it can heal me... it can heal you too...!
