I really like this. The first time I listened, not so much. But now,yes. Go figure. I’m especially enjoying Happy today. I wish I had something pithy to say about this, but I don’t - it’s just good.
Thanks for the comment, blueberry.
You know, the first few times I heard Ray LaMontagne was like that for me. Not that Martin Sexton is a Ray LaMontagne by any means, but what I mean is when I first listened to Ray, I didn’t like what I heard. I didn’t get it. What was all the fuss about?
But then one day I clicked on a link to Ray LaMontagne singing “Crazy” and it blew me away. I was just amazing. And then I went back and listened to all his other songs and they were amazing, too. And now Ray LaMontagne is my favorite artist of all time, ever…I think. But when I first heard him? Not so much. At all. I can remember clicking on the very first youtube vid of RL singing Trouble over at GC…and I remember thinking “WTF?” I guess I just wasn’t ready or something.
Now I know that there is magic in music out there that I just can’t hear yet …so it pays to keep an mind open and to keep listening!
