I've been doing some life stitching lately. My last job really wore me down and I wasn't aware just how much it was affecting me. But I'm loving the new job and I've done some stuff I was neglecting; dentist visit, contact lenses, planning my future adventures, reconnecting with friends and not whining about negative shit all the time... I feel like I've woken up. And I'm not putting up with arseholes anymore. Things are good. The one thing that's dropped off is phoner interviews for this blog and bma. I'll have to get back into it very soon! [...]

“Deep River is a song that was sung back in the plantation days, where blacks sung to deliver messages. It was like their newspaper, they would talk to each other in the fields – that’s what my father used to tell me. He would say, ‘They would sing a song and if it was bad news they would sing it in a torturing way. If it was good news they would make it happy’. Talking about, ‘I want to cross over into campground’. Campground was free country. Everybody wanna be free.” - Bobby Womack [...]

This video was shot in Bobby Womack's home, and he had the following to say [...]

If you dig back a bit, you'll find an album cover featuring two terrifying double-jointed thumbs, along with a hell of a track from Bobby Womack.
