For Free
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G1-HVBD3OMs

And I play if you have the money
Or if you're a friend to me
But the one man band
By the quick lunch stand
He was playing real good, for free


Commentary: Folks don’t value what’s for free. In fact, the more folks pay, the more they value.

Ramble On (Sing my song)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EAmIuTI4wRg

(Note the Tolkien reference)

Sorting out some shelves the other day and I found a stack of old vinyl, and this album was one of them. It was in the middle of the stack and well-preserved. Think I'll hang onto it.

If one does nothing else but listen to this while listening to this, it may induce momentary thought-free awareness, physically felt as anticipation, like listening for the next creak of a floor-board in the middle of the night, but in this case there’s nothing to fear even though many folks fear the void of emptiness found in thought-free awareness.

"It's time to go" hollered Greg. "Oh! Ok" replied Bret, reaching for his violin. "No wait, it's just 9:15 PM. We still have 3 hours" corrected Greg. "Oh, ok, is that so?" said Greg ... his fingers grasped his violin' neck ... he could feel the strings ... he was already playin' at the concert.

Joni Mitchell - Don't Interrupt The Sorrow
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h6Wsdkl ... N4&index=4

Don't interrupt the sorrow
Darn right
In flames our prophet witches
Be polite
A room full of glasses
He says, "your notches liberation doll"
And he chains me with that serpent
To that Ethiopian wall

Anima rising
Queen of queens
Wash my guilt of Eden
Wash and balance me
Anima rising
Uprising in me tonight
She's a vengeful little goddess
With an ancient crown to fight

Truth goes up in vapors
The steeples lean
Winds of change patriarchs
Snug in your bible belt dreams
God goes up the chimney
Like childhood Santa Claus
The good slaves love the good book
A rebel loves a cause

I'm leaving on the 1:15
You're darn right
Since I was seventeen
I've had no one over me
He says, "Anima rising
So what
Petrified wood process
Tall timber down to rock"

Don't interrupt the sorrow
Darn right
He says, "we walked on the moon
You be polite"
Don't let up the sorrow
Death and birth and death and birth
And death and birth
He says, "bring that bottle kindly
And I'll pad your purse
I've got a head full of quandary
And a mighty, mighty, thirst"

Seventeen glasses
Rhine wine
Milk of the Madonna
Clandestine
He don't let up the sorrow
He lies and he cheats
It takes a heart like Mary's these days
When your man gets weak
