Comment: I love listening to The Good, The Bad and The Ugly: “The Ecstasy of Gold”. It makes me feel like I am out on some dusty trail beneath a bright blue sky and blazing sunshine.

Are you saying I wasn’t in college in 1985? Listen, first grade was just like college in so many ways!
You’re probably right about it being done with the band. My friends and I were known to listen to music not quite of our generation.
Must be due to all of that Zeppelin I heard in utero. And the Zeppelin my big brother made me sing before he’d be willing to drive me to the library. Aaah, youth.

Kris,
Right now I am typing my response to you. Right now I am finishing my response.
Raggedy,
Didn’t that song come out in ’85 when he was with The Smiths?
Sarah,
My pleasure.
Chosha,
I’ll have to check it out.
Sheyna,
Good stuff.

Love “The Mummers Dance” π
I’m listening to the soundtracks from Backdraft and Broken Arrow, as well as Enya’s “Shepherd Moons” album – all as writing music. Though I just switched over to the soundtrack from “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat” while writing a scene involving a bar mitzvah and the kid’s take on Parshat Vayeishev.
Gotta love my work. π

I’m loving the Imogen Heap album, Speak For Yourself – have listened to it about eight times straight now. It’s been a while since an album drew me in like that.
