Introduction
There are so few musicians who create seminal work. Tonight I was at a gig in this musically-rich cultural hub. In between they played great works from the late 1970s and 1980s. That seems like a long time ago. It has been a long time since musicians redefined what we love, to explain and explore it in extraordinary ways. They are a savvy group, these underground music makers. They know their history, they know where to find the source. And they emulate it. This blog is dedicated to those rare few in this fine scene who are more than musicians. They are craftspeople. If you see it here, read closely and follow your heart. Here is a close reading. Just as we listen. Especially when it confounds and confides. If you don't find the harmony here, listen back to the high profile, gleaned two and a half minute credibility accreditors you can find on most radio stations. For those others, you are welcome here.
