I think your songs are incredible, crazy... they sound so simple, and intense, and real, and fucked up "but that's how it is" :D they kind of "illustrate" a lot of things that are going through my head, with a dark beauty that I think I'm too hardcore to waste my time painting :D I love it when I can "see" who is playing a song, whether it's ultra-noisy electric rock... or some quiet (but never "soft") acoustic guitar...
I would really love to hear you play "Pearl" if you'd be so kind....i wrote this at the start of the vid... so I didn't know you were going to play it... now that I know you are playing it.... THANK YOU... I LOVE THIS SONG.. A LOT.... THANK YOU
I’d love to hear Lou talk about Belt Buckle, Deluxx Folk Implosion, and all the other “smaller” side projects that would end up on singles or compliations and then disappear. I loved all that stuff and still have the vinyl of a lot of it.
Lovely versions of both tracks. I recall seeing your "New" Folk Implosion incarnation a few times in the UK, and I recall Imaad and Russ with you, definitely in Manchester. Imaad did a set on his own. I don't recall seeing you tour (the UK) with John. Looking forward to the new tour, I have tickets already for one date, and will get more dates as they become available.
I’m with Adele on the song “Roxanne”. I liked it briefly but I burned out on it. It’s proverbial nails on a chalkboard for me and has been for… 20 years? Ouch. Time burns.
'The New Folk Implosion' album was (and still is) great. Sorrynotsorry. 'Pearl' is still a timelessly beautiful song, regardless of band/artist name. To this very moment in time, I cannot understand why this album was poorly received (obviously, Ditchfork were beginning to believe their own hype, resulting in them becoming the snarky high-school bully of music journalism - fu*k them).
@loobiecore17 I'm biased, but you are the best 'writer of the song' to me, and I WILL duel with any folk that say otherwise. Ohh man, dude, your work/writing means A LOT to me... I literally may know 90% of your work by heart, and OH crap, I called "Hands On" does that appeal, sorry.
