about
Recorded at the Electric Cave, Portsmouth, NH 2018
lyrics
And the lights came down
And the room was dark and quiet
Just the lonesome sound
Of mosquitoes on a diet
And you looked at me
With eyes a burnin' brightly
And whispered low....
Will tomorrow like tonight be?
And you held me close
And I barely slept an hour
But I never knew you better
When the morning coffee sputtered
And we shared an omelet
Some toast and peanut butter
Coltrane on the stereo
Rain washing the shutters
And we kissed good morning
Then I headed home
And the sky was shining
And my head so heavy hung...
Now the lights come down
And the room is dark and quiet
Just the lonesome sound
Of mosquitoes on a diet
And you look at me
With eyes a burnin' brightly
And whisper low....
Will tomorrow like tonight be?

My younger brother Dan's recent double-vinyl release! I used to play earlier versions of some of these tunes live on upright bass with Dan. Glad to hear them fully come to life. An inspiration :) Jonathan Blakeslee
David Kilgour is one of my fave musicians of all time. Love his records with The Clean, but his solo albums get just as much play time with me. Check out the first track here, "Like Rain". The best! Jonathan Blakeslee
Got turned onto John's music by a friend. "Vampire Alberta Blues" gets stuck in my head, reminds me of a track or two from Neil Young's "On the Beach"... Jonathan Blakeslee
