He keeps writing well.
And I still have to look-up words to discover they hardly exist.
We think about them, bro. And here's the thing: I'm amazed that I hear every thing so incorrectly for so long on tape and cd, vinyl too ... I get all the words wrong and you always get them right.

Thats right... You and I (judging from that post you made awhile ago), were both pretty convinced that "The Search" had that line "it's a terra cotta..." but it's "satyricon of info wherever you go."
We been fooled. In a good way. Fer sure.
I ain't gettin worked up.

However, call me antediluvian but I need to something material with these on it, an intangible series of binary digits wont do - I need a record or a cd or a cassette or a fucking 8 track. Just something I can hold in my sweaty hand. I'm counting on the fact that anyone who wrote a song called gramaphone understands this and will right this wrong soon.

The acoustic Highways and Cigarettes has me pretty interested. I'm sure that's great.

I think I was the first to get the Bonus EP at Rasputin's Berkeley. THey had to call upstairs and get a a guy to unwrap a huge stack of them. They are in a separate sleave that has the artwork that's on "The Picture" single that's up on itunes. The songs are:
Underground Dream (live at a Sony studios in front of executives- just Jay)
Highways & Cigs (demo- just Jay and a guitar)
Bandages and Scars (live at Bonnaroo)
It's worth it for the version of Highways. It totally beats the album version.
QUESTION: Does the BEST BUY ep come in a separate package? Is the Cyrcadian rhythm the same version as the ACL EP? Is the Highways version the same as above?
damn!! exurbia is different than the okemah version! i should have known.
i have only listened to coltrane free so far from the i tunes stuff. great song. my friend that downloaded it for me listened to this track and said "that is a cool ass song, it didn't make it on the hard copy?"
i dig the 3 track (best buy) ep. i didn't remember the acl version of circadian rhythm being so good.
