It's A Little Like Science
I play records around the 3 year old and she has questions/opinions. From my notes app, A-L on Vashti Bunyan's dreamy and delicate 1970 debut Just Another Diamond Day.
It's a little like science.
Does her have animals?
I like her voice!
Does she eat sausage?
Is she your friend?
When will the record stop? She's taking a long time.

P.S.: Yeah, it's almost been a month since my last newsletter/mixtape. Too much travel, too many projects, some sickness and the death of our sweet pup (you may remember Cocoa Bean from this saga). It's been a lot. Hope to get back into the swing of things soon.
