You have the one side of Ocean Breathes Salty, which is the version song by Sun Kil Moon on their album Tiny Cities. It's the version that makes you want to draw a bath and sit in the dark, except for a few flickers of candlelight dancing on the surface of the lukewarm water that surrounds you. And it doesn't matter if you shed a few cathartic tears because you've already chosen to dampen your limb body, why not your soul, too? I think you get the point-you play this ve... MORE

I just found radical piece of software called AirFoil that gets rid of the obscenely offensive restriction of allowing only iTunes to access your AirPort. AirFoil allows your wireless speakers to play sounds from any application on your computer!!! I have been blasting tunes all day long. Down side, after ten minutes of play, AirFoil adds an ugly hiss to your songs unless you pay 25 bucks for the software. I have found a mini-hack. If you just keep pressing the speaker ... MORE

What resulted was a strange and eerie, yet beautiful, album. Here's a taste. Further reading can be found at AllMusic

I am sure there is some depressing Freudian meaning to the dream, but... MORE

I picked up this album after seeing Mark solo in Nashville. He played these songs acoustic as well as some Red House Painter material. He continues to be one of the only songwriters I know who can keep me riveted for a whole album. He is also the only artist whose entire collection I own. I have to say that "Trucker's Atlas" is probably my favorite track of this album right now.. but the whole darn thing speaks to me and is so good it's hard to choose favorites at all. ... MORE
