I can't hear "Feel it All Around" without imagining myself back on the top deck of the Marquam bridge.

Lately, I've been obsessed (as the kids say) with "John Cooper Clarke" by Working Men's Club, and R.E.M.'s "Out of Time" record. Two very different sounds, but I've had both on in equal measure. I finally got the latter on vinyl, and my wife says it's one of those records meant to be listened to on a record. I think she's right.

Those August 12th birthdays can't be coincidental!!! Love Washed Out and glad they're on your heavy playlist. I'm playing Bobbie Gentry right now. How cool she was!

Funny you mention Washed Out, as we were making dinner the other night. But yesterday, as I gave the place the old top to bottom, it was Simple Minds from start to finish. Put on "Theme for Great Cities" and see if that doesn't help you create sparkling bathrooms!
