Two easy-to-hear instrumentals for another week in the pandemic featuring Daniel Lanois and Red House Painters
IN THIS (PANDEMIC) TIME is a Kurated series in response to COVID-19.
Who knew living in the moment could be so…dystopic?

TWO SONGS OF THE DAY: FLAMETOP GREEN AND CABEZON
Two instrumentals to open your day.
Daniel Lanois’ Flametop Green is on the 2005 album, Belladonna. It’s a moving, poignant and too brief piece.
Cabezon, by the Red House Painters, is a languid track from their 1995 collection Ocean Beach. When I looked up the title and landed on a site called weird.ca featuring the Cabazon Dinosaurs, the absurdity felt appropriate (despite the spelling difference.)
Stay tuned,
