Got the link off martin's facebook, forwarded it along to all my friends.

It's fucking great. There's a lot of good shit on there.

nice catch with the verse Martin, total Dylan!

I was thinking early early.

Like, the chorus from GOYB sort of aligning with the chorus of "Sometime Soon She Said"

record sales are down, the major labels are all floundering and wasting their resources suing fans. Indie labels? well, vinyl sales are up a ...

Exactly!
And I think in terms of the times, that was exactly what was needed!

Because a work of art can be political without being "about politics". And it can be more powerful/meaningf ...

To me, hello sunshine seemed completely politically relevant 'because' it was 'apolitical'. again, maybe it's just my interpretation, but as an american it seemed like a political statement. from th ...

I have to defend Phantom Power from an American point of view. IMO, 50% of the record is ABOUT American foreign policy post 9/11. The record helped me through a very dark period of my country's hist ...
