TVD’s The Idelic Hour with Jon Sidel

Greetings from Laurel Canyon!

“First there is a mountain, then there is no mountain, then there is… First there is a Mountain…”

Very groovy song with a very groovy concept. I have never heard anyone refer to Laurel Canyon as a mountain, but certainly it is a “hill,” (famously coined “The Hills”). The “spark” for this week’s Idelic Hour came from a blog post I saw. Remembering Mountains, a new album of Karen Dalton covers has just come out.

Sharon Van Etten’s haunting version of this long lost KD track is a gem. Everything about this cover from the title to its long gone author oozed thru my veins as I navigated a tricky week work. Mercury is indeed in retrograde again. Motherfuckers out there are coming unglued.

Be careful when you drive. We’ve seen a bunch of car wrecks and oil spills. Fuck—a ton of near misses as well.

Yes, remember the “mountain.” First there is one. Then there is…

The Idelic Hit of the Week:
Hidden Charms – It’s Time

Remembering?
