Greetings from Laurel Canyon!
He’s looking like a sailor / Who hasn’t a ship / Same salty song / And curled up lips / In the land of the brave / And running out of vain / Waiting for a guy, silver-eyed / Like a bullet train…
Out of the desert and into the oven. After a day of rain the heat turned up in the canyon. Driving on Mulholland, I saw the temperature hit 100 twice yesterday. With all the “glare,” it’s a struggle to keep my eyes on the prize. At the end of the day, life and what’s really important is… “lovely” still.
Sunday, October 23 is a special day. My talented, magical, “bewitching beauty” Zoe turns 22. So this weekend it’s time to turn up the music and celebrate.
Inspired by my very first radio demo at KCRW in 2009, here comes my latest version of “The Lovely Hour.” It’s an hour of songs from the heart.
Hopefully it’s working better than my brain.
Happy birthday lovely one.
