Greetings from Laurel Canyon!
To dream the impossible dream / To fight the unbeatable foe / To bear with unbearable sorrow / And to run where the brave dare not go
To right the unrightable wrong / And to love pure and chaste from afar / To try when your arms are too weary / To reach the unreachable star
This is my quest / To follow that star / No matter how hopeless / No matter how far
As this cold California January sets in, I’ve found my priority has been staying warm in my cool, old canyon, mid-century pad. It’s honestly kept me off turntables on my iPad.
Looking for random inspiration, I’ve been listening to an old playlist of songs made by a friend of a band I used to work with. It’s a fascinating blend of hippie obscurities. The other morning a song called “Did You Dream Of Unicorns” popped up.
I could go on for hours about “dreams.” In these pandemic years, I have often felt I’ve lost my dreams. I certainly have no shortage of Idelic Hours dedicated to the topic. As Otis sings… “I Have Dreams To Remember.”
So, this week I’m doing just that.
Idelic Single of the Week: The Murder Capital – Return My Head
Sometimes I dream I’m fishing.
