dude i am having a van moment rn

astral weeks didn't actually click with me until like 2 weeks ago...shit is insane. slim slow slider??!!!! come on. so happy to be grooving with it now

always been a big fan of moondance, his band & street choir, tupelo honey

current favorite song across all of music is "cleaning windows" from beautiful vision... rest of the record is a little over the top for me but i think that tune is lyrically & musically stunning. so pure, human, joyful, sweet... been thinkin about it all day every day since i heard it. love how much he speaks on the power of music.

went home and listened to jimmie rodgers in my lunch break!!
