Musical Meditation
-
Artist:
Okay, this wasn't the best meditation song I could find, but you have to mention an artist for these darn posts. The thoughts I'm having are on the idea of music in meditation. Not anything earth shattering I know, but I like to analyze a music composition based on it's function in my life.

Frank Know's Music

Artist:
Just been listening to Frank on 10/31 podcast of Louge Acts (WOXY.com). Man, what a intellectual sounding guy. Not you're average smack that plays great music who thinks he's the shit all the time and has to remind you of it.
