Life of a 🐎 in the 👁️ of the 🌪️

And we're back! New THEORETICAL album. The first of 2020: right here 🐎

It's here. It's out folks. My 2019 Financial Spending Report.

I'm not sure what the point of doing this was really. Thought it would be more interesting to see where my money (30K+) went. Is it?

This is an inaccurate report. I only started doing this in April, so I loosely calculated what I might have spent in the first quarter of the last calendar year. Tracked against my net gains, I think it's pretty close though. I was able to stash 4K in my savings account that previously had $0 dollars in it, and I still have a ~$1,500 surplus in the ole checking account. And that checks out. I will be keeping a much more detailed track record of this beginning with my first purchase of 2020 (whenever that might be) here at this new blog: food-n-money.tumblr.com.

I'll now commence with deleting all the individual $pending posts of 2019 and earlier on this blog. Shalom and namaste and vote for Bernie Sanders.

prplmtn(s) majesty – a  track-by-track review
by Jeff

 

The self-titled and only record by Purple Mountains (Purple Mountains) might be my #1 album of the damn year! Oh hell yes, I just said it. A+ for sure ...

Things get started with one of the best damn lead tracks on any album ever: "That's Just the Way That I Feel." The lyric "When I try to drown my thoughts in gin / I find my worst ideas know how to swim" ... does it get any better than that? Yes, it does actually: EVERY OTHER DAMN LINE IN THIS SONG.

Then there's track 2: "All My Happiness is Gone." I can hear those sweeping synth strings forever in my heart baby. Mega <3

Shit keeps rocking with "Darkness and Cold." Gotta love that country howl ... all my favorite BACKGROUND singers COULD sing (apparently) ... jk lol

"Snow is Falling in Manhattan" slows things up, but continues to warm my heart. Nice track placement, DCB!

Some might say that the fifth track, "Margaritas at the Mall" is the Bop ... it's at least the record's "spiritual" Bop, in more ways than one, that's for sure ;)

"She’s Making Friends, I’m Turning Stranger" confirms that, hell yes this record is going to have longer song titles than any previous Silver Jews record. (This ain't your daddy's Silver Jews, kids ... buckle up).

On "I Loved Being My Mother’s Son" we get one of the most straightforward and tender songs in the catalogue ever ... Umm, can you say Lucky Us much?

There's nothing as explicitly bleak as "Nights That Won't Happen," a song that is about death and only death. Nice.

Things getting chugging again with the penultimate "Storyline Fever," another one so jammed pack with ace couplets it would be dumb to just highlight a single one.

The closer "Maybe I’m the Only One For Me" could be seen as some kinda warped companion to "Honk If You're Lonely Tonight." The line "I'll have to learn to like myself" isn't so much as a plea, but a statement of regret. This record sucks. I love it.

I can't fucking focus or can I? #BreakingNews

File 14353 ah yes I know the one; it rings true and scrapes against my inner ear until the blood-curdling screams are fully inside (no one else can hear them).

On the Occasion It is Done

From here on forth to be known as the OCCASION POINT: A state of mind, located in a time and place: REDACTED. Let the record show that at 3:29 and 42 seconds, P.M. EST on a Tuesday – November the 12th, 2019, the subject was weighed and cataloged in as potential Demise Candidate: Level Shitstorm. This does not, of course, take into consideration any recent improvement and/or movie reviews (recorded in podcast form or otherwise). That the subject wished to be called "Occasion Point" or be allowed to start a band or arts collective using that name at some future juncture, is not something the committee wishes to take up at this time. He's hereby been sentenced to conduct the task of creating a music album of sorts, called thusly God 2, utilizing previous branding efforts ("Just Jeff"), and given a timeframe of 72 years to fulfill the requirement, we feel an adequate addition to the previous stipulations of the OCCASION POINT. If the subject wishes to weigh himself at any time in the 72-year framework wherein he finds himself alive he must first purge the system with a black cherry and sauerkraut mixture. Given the vast ocean of the 72-year framework we strongly encourage the subject to think of any moment in time within it as both yesterday and, more importantly, today; we feel this offers all involved a more substantial opportunity to gain that hot R.O.I.
