Follow me down to a place by the river
Sold for my kidneys, sold for my liver
Why so weedy, so fucking needy
There’s no such thing as being too greedy

This post is extracted from something I received from my friend 🔗 Randall Rospond - over on Maui.

He writes …

I first became aware of this song in 1989 when I purchased the cassette of Jackson Browne’s ‘World in Motion’ … and it spoke to me deeply then and has throughout the years.
It speaks to me more these days in the midst of America’s great lying disaster in the White House and the ruin of what I believed the USA had always ‘tried’ to stand for. Freedom. The song was written by Little Steven … and released on his Disciples of Soul album 1984. With this … I pray some sanity , rule of law , integrity , honesty and compassion return to America and the world … asap. … peace and aloha Randall

🪦 … and so farewell Ozzy – thank you for asking that question at the very beginning. It is often my only one. 🎵

🎵Yes? You mean ‘Steve and his mates that currently perform as Yes?

Now, 54 short years later, Steve Howe, Geoff Downes, Billy Sherwood, Jon Davison and Jay Schellen are taking the timeless collection of songs (and a few other classics) on the road.

I am not generally a fan of hip-hop - but I do check in from time to time. I came across this one from mcc@mastodon.social - and just spectacular. It kind of felt to me that he’s channeling Gil Scott-Heron - 55 40 years later. (LATER: Reading more - I realised that the music is from a 2007 album._

🔗📼🎵Really. Watch it.

Lyrics in the comments - because as MCC wrote in her post

Position paper read through a megaphone. Terrifying, breezy industrial beats and laughing children.

Yes - which sometimes makes it hard to hear the words.

I guess I’m reflecting on history a little this weekend.
