It seems apparent that this blog has become a receptacle of compilations and playlists, and not much else. This is fitting, as my mood is highly influenced by my musical tastes, or is it the other way, that my music tastes are influenced by the moods I am in, probably both. Anyway, this next compilation is one for summer, as solstice is upon us, of which I will be celebrating as I usually do by watching naked people ride bikes through Fremont followed by cold beers into the evening.
I hope you enjoy this one as I feel it really captures the soundtrack to our summer months of hanging out and enjoying each others laid back company. Yes, it begins with weirdness, Animal Collective, however, don’t we all feel a little awkward in Seattle as the grey blanket is pulled from the sky, to be replaced by a burning orb of light, once our eyes adjust to this new found light, we want to get out and frolic in the grass, which is portrayed with Fleet Foxes. The rest of the summers attributes are whimsically laced here within, including the song by Extra Golden, Obama, of which we will all hear plenty about this summer and into the Autumn months. Enjoy.

As a fan of Bob Marley, I have found all compilations/best of albums done to date lacking. They lack a certain progression, and comparison of how Bob Marley would write politically motivated songs, which were always backed by powerful religious and spiritual embodiment. I have decided to create a Best of album for Bob Marley based on what I find to be his most powerful and moving words, not solely based on the most popular and top selling songs, as most best of albums are. The majority of these songs are of the political spectrum, ones that fueled a rebel movement in Jamaica focusing on love and nonviolence. Cheers.
