Home Crap Home


Ah, yes, home crap home. After a two week vacation to the most secluded chain of islands in the world, returning back to real life is not unlike what I might imagine relocating from a luxury suite at the Four Seasons, to um, jail. But I must move on, and return to my steady life of predictability and routine. Post vacation depression syndrome is really gonna leak through to these future posts I'm afraid.

The only thing I've listened to since I've been back is classic Brazillian songwriter Jorge Ben. Though not as political as some of his contemporaries of his time, and certainly more mainstream, his music is still quite enjoyable. Mixing samba and folk-rock, at the peak of the Tropicalia movement, his albums reached a more mainstream audience.

So, this is my humble return to city life. Help me Jorge, help me.



And one of my favorites:

Jorge Ben - 01 - Morre o Burro, Fica o Homem by Mexisota Kid
