It's a beautiful morning here in the New Age, so we feel obligated to bring you Iceland's Finest, aka Amiina, in a collaboration with the late Lee Hazlewood.
Incidentally, Lee recorded his vocals at the end of 2007, just prior to when his boots were no longer made for walking.
I wanted to make a wiseass comment about throwing all that cocaine away on the volcano top (don't worry I truly hate cocaine!!!) but I can't because I was very moved by the beautiful tribute Lee Hazelwood.
ReplyDeleteSteve, thank you for finding this.

Plumber --
ReplyDeleteGlad you liked it.
That was swell. Add my thanks in there as well Steve.
ReplyDeleteFunny, I hate cocaine too. I don't think one can truly despise the drug until you've been down that road. It's truly the devil in powder form. After I had quit it for good, I once was physically removed from a soirée for getting all preachy and screechy in a roomful of folks hovering over a mirror. Ah well, that was a long time ago.
And speaking of lost friends, an old pal of mine went to his reward last nite. I put a litttle tribute out on my site to him.

Jim Jones...RIP.
there's a very pretty film by Phillip Bloom set to My Autumn's Done Come. Lee didn't do too bad with that. Boy had some pipes.
ReplyDeleteCleveland Bob:
ReplyDeleteI'm truly sorry to hear about your friend Jim.
But I am delighted to learn that he was in The Electric Eels, as in "Having a Philosophical Conversation With the Electric Eels," still my favorite album title of all time.
Thanks, Steve.
ReplyDeleteHe'd been sick for a long while and passing was a relief.
So it goes.
