An Eclipse of the Moon

Been a rocker with trips to Ten Years After, Traffic, Zepplin, Aerosmith and who knows what else to bands at an alternative end like Outlaws and Marshall Tucker.

I luvved all of them.

I think, for any of us, who consider themselves broad, in their sense of musical tastes, they understand the recognition of pure musicians. I am one of them...heaven knows I've committed blowin' me brains out on those others....but if you know music, it's artistry, and the skill of any musician, you can classify yourself in that different realm........So, I found that in (horror of horrors) a rocky mountain band, Mandolin Orange, which then morhphed in to Watchouse. I liked the former more, rather than the latter, but the crisp consistency of the musical physicians, and their vocals, is calming and so 'effin skilled....in such an uncertain world these days.

Anyway....gonna shoot you a bit of a re-burp on a classic. If you're open to different styles surrounding a sorta mountain-meets-it's-own-style-of-goodness, they might be for you.

If it matters.....and I suspect it may not to anyone else....an earlier one, back when they were less known as Mandolin Orange.....they were/are such tremendous musicians and vocalists. I feel as if musically, I'm listening to dialogue from the wonderful remake True Grit with the Coen Brothers. If you ever watched this movie, the very nature of the dialogue alone would take one back to the West in the mid-19th century......and so this song itself sends me in that direction. Enough of that however.....I love this ballad. I pray a small nucleus of odd balls like myself will love this as well.
