A spontaneous autobiographical disclosure. A free-form slo-mo listening party. A song a day. Yours to enjoy.

I'm gonna open up your gate
My sister keeps proselytizing me on Lee Hazlewood. I don't resist so much as enjoy at a remove. Just not my cup of '60s, although I do commend his mastery over Nancy Sinatra. Meanwhile, I've had warm feelings for Slowdive since high school, an age when folks are most susceptible to their hazy charms. And those hazy charms work wonders for one of Hazlewood's signature ditties. A shimmering ocean of a pop song.
We are not in it for the money. Songblague runs on communitarian values, love of music, and a dash of vanity. If you like what you're hearing, please purchase it from one of the remaining retailers who would like to sell it to you.
Have just burned you an MP3 CD of Hazlewood albums. Let's see if we can't just get you hooked on the originals.
