Sat, 15 September 2007 This episode of the Your Moment of Zen zencast is dedicated to the acoustic guitar in all its glory. A long time ago I bought an acoustic guitar, back when I still entertained notions of rock stardom (or at least coffee house anonymity) and tried to learn to play. But unlike Bryan Adams, I did not play till my fingers bled, and therefore did not master the instrument. Today it sits quietly in the hallway, mocking me and what might have been. So in honor of my unplayed acoustic guitar I bring your Episode lucky #7... Tracklisting 1. Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova -- Falling Slowly 2. Joseph Arthur -- Honey and the Moon 3. Billy Bragg -- Northern Industrial Town 4. Black Rebel Motorcycle Club -- Complicated Situation 5. Bright Eyes -- From A Balance Beam 6. Cat Stevens -- Moonshadow 7. Coldplay -- Till Kingdom Come 8. Goo Goo Dolls -- Acoustic #3 9. Josh Ritter -- Snow is Gone (Live) 10. The Hereafter -- Eulogy Comments[2] |
Sat, 1 September 2007 I have tried to stay away from politics on this blog. I like to find lighter things to speak of but with my brother about to be deployed to Iraq sometime in the next few months I seem to be thinking about heavier things lately. So I compiled this podcast with songs that have a message about either war or revolution. I have no real political statement to make but I do feel that we have to take a hard look at what we are doing in the Middle East and why we are there. So here are songs that make a statement and ask questions about America's place in the world. Tracklisting 1. Husker Du -- Makes No Sense At All 2. Billy Bragg -- Price Of Oil 3. Pearl Jam -- Army Reserve 4. Micheal Franti and Spearhead -- Yell Fire! 5. REM -- Orange Crush 6. Rage Against The Machine -- Killing In The Name Of (Live) 7. Son Volt -- Jet Pilot 8. Warren Zevon -- The Envoy 9. Joe Strummer -- Redemption Song Comments[1] |
