About a hundred year old harpoon found in a captured whale. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070612/ap_on_re_us/century_old_whale anyway...have been listening to South of Delia pretty much. Enough for aspects of it to touch my consciousness even when I'm not listening to it. The phrase "PISA FUERTE" comes popping up in my mind through out the days. That song is like an infection tho...almost like a chant. (well I guess its a prayer) I'm trying not to pisar fuerte. Trying to tread lightly. But I think of it during "Humpback Whale". Because I guess the whalermen "pisan fuerte" there on the whale pop. - now with their guns.. And in Richard's singing, I perceive a sadness in the verse (paraphrasing) about the whale sinks down. Puts a tear in my beer, thats for sure. But at least the whale tore up the boat a bit. Just thought I'd share my thoughts since the list has been quiet. Another thing....my eyes are shite anymore, and CD covers are tiny. So I have perused the liner notes a bit, but I guesss not enough. How come RS thanks Tracy Grammer? does Tracy sing or play on one of the cuts? I don't recall seeing her credited as a singer or player.... :) thx Em Stand, don't you know that you are free? well at least in your mind, if you want to be... ...Sly Free your mind and the rest will follow.. ..En Vogue ------------------------------ End of shindell-list-digest V9 #98 **********************************
