My past catches up to me.
As I prepare to travel to Tanzania, I realize that I need to prep my ipod for this long trip. It did not take long to start thinking about past trips to China and Thailand and the 24 hour door to door trip and the music that I brought with me to to pass the hours.
Brian Eno’s “Another Day On Earth” is my traveling CD. A brilliant master work by Mr. Eno that has started to work it’s way back into my life as I start thinking about the big questions of my trip to Tanzania.
Sigur Rós “Takk…” was a corner stone to my trip to China. It brings back so many smells and tastes from that trip that it is uncanny. A brilliant CD of songs if you enjoy long notes of music that rise, fall and crash like the waves of the ocean.
John Coltrane & Thelonious Monk Quartet lost album of live works “Thelonious Monk Quartet With John Coltrane at Carnegie Hall” was pulled apart note my note turning my skip over to Thailand from Hong Kong. It is the type of CD that just makes you want to play.
I wonder what music will impact this trip?
