MEDÚLLA
#75 in my RECORD COLLECTION series
Dedicated to Myself

Björk's music always gives me the momentum to propel myself into the next chapter of life & adventure.

POST carried me from Asheville to SF; HOMOGENIC took me from SF to NYC for the first time.
When MEDÚLLA was released, I was living underground in The Hobbit Hole.
I'd convinced myself that I *wanted* to be there, but in reality, I was hiding from life & the world.
These songs, especially WHO IS IT, helped me get my courage and focus together to come back to NYC.
And we've had a pretty good run, this second time around, haven't we, NYC?

A theme of MEDÚLLA is birth, its joys & pains.
Let's hope that the pains of 2009 birth into some joy in 2010!

I remember the summer between 7th & 8th grade, opening a music magazine & seeing a photo of Mari Wilson, with the quote, "Diana Ross sells love; I sell TUPPERWARE™."
She made an impression on me.
It was many years before I could track down her music in North Carolina, but when I did, (thanks, Scott), the wait was totally worth it.
Mari is a precursor of Pizzicato Five, Saint Etienne, The Gentle People and all those wonderful people whose music is a way of creatively archiving everything thats come before, while adding new glamor & drama.

TRAVELIN' IN THE WRIGHT CIRCLE
#69 in my RECORD COLLECTION series

"You know, I heard a song not too long ago
that said 'You think that people would have had enough of silly love songs'
HA!
Awww, but look around you and you see it isn't so!
You see, personally I think that the world could always use just a little more love
The greatest commandment ever laid down by god was his commandment of love
But we ladies, we get so wrapped up sometimes in the things that we're doin'
We forgot to tell our man just how we feel and let him know that we KNOW he feels the same
& we know his love is for real!
We forget to do it so much and sometimes we so slow...
Sometimes we got to catch him before he's walkin' out the door!
Aw, but I'm not gonna get caught in that trap!
You see I'm gonna take out just a little bit of time each day & whisper in his ear and say, "Honey..."
- Betty Wright, LOVE IS

Cleo's version of NO ONE IS ALONE is a warm eternal earthmother hug, bottomless in its compassion. Not sappy, just the truth, told as only someone who loves you could.
Our actions have consequences, our place on the chain matters, each of us makes a difference.

Ann Magnuson's work is like tripping in art history class (I r xperienced).
Her art is that magic combo of funny/poignant/gorgeous, mixing references from high & low culture in a way that reminds you that we all live in this world together.
I've learned so much, been sent on so many adventures, had my mind broadened through her words.
FOLK SONG is a manifesto that just keeps getting deeper and more real!
I was really fortunate to get her message about whats what early!
