1. Hearing Moanin & Screamin for the first time on the radio late one night otw to a sneaky link was just one of those moments…. One of those real mind blowing moments. This song was a vibe that I had been looking for for a long time.
Linked in post (I promise one day I’ll be better at link management I’m still figuring it out
2. And This one, Look Way Back, also by diamond joe, may even be better:

Not much is known about Joe Maryland (diamond joe). Like this is literally the only picture I have even been able to find of him. I couldn’t even find when he was born or died. New Orleans guy, just like me!
he has Less than 1,500 monthly listeners on Spotify. It’s just incredible when talents like this, real real talents, people truly connected with their soul and able to express it honestly, go mostly without recognition. But A tale as old as time I guess
RIP him ❤️

a couple weeks ago driving from Vermont back to NYC I was listening to an episode of Theme Time Radio, Bob Dylan’s 2000s radio show, and he introduced a song by Lou Reed I’d never heard before. So it’s like Bob himself showed me this. It’s a cover of an old American standard but Lou of course makes it his own.

"For I am sleeping under strange, strange skies
Just another mad, mad day on the road
My dreams is fading down the railway line
I'm just about a moonlight mile on down the road."
I'm generally not a fan of "road" songs from famous musicians, they're just too prone to cliche
But Mick lets us peek behind the mask here to see how empty the pop life really is.
No Keef on this track (he was notoriously unreliable around this time due to his drug habit)
Just Mick and Mick Taylor doing the all night studio thing
with some lovely strings tacked on.
IMO one of the Stones' most underrated songs.

Its getting draining
I can’t bear to take another radio channel thats made for me
I just want the radio made for the song
I’m trying to discover
It’s just a lot, sometimes I wish I could have a separate account with no likes to browse and explore uninhibited

Oh how I love you vitamin barn.
With your overpriced supplements and coconut water and your more reasonably priced wraps and smoothies (arguable take).
Two recommendations:
1. The veggie wrap (pictured below)
Quite possibly the best veggie wrap available for purchase in the United States at least.
Kale, shredded beets and carrots, sprouts, celery, cucumber, hummus, and a tomato
One half for now, one in the fridge for later
$12.99? #werecopping
2. The Lean Protein
California greens, matcha, a-milk, dates, a-butter, coconut oil, banana, protein
Now this is basically the same price as the veggie wrap. So there’s definitely an argument for it being less of a deal. But I’m addicted to paying over $10 for smoothies.
This smoothie fills you up, subtlety satisfies your sweet tooth, makes you healthy (California greens), and gives you protein and energy.
Don’t worry about the Thai Wrap or the hulk shake, just listen to me and you will be okay and happy.
Bonus Features:
They are so nice, 70% chance of meeting a dog in there, 100% chance of a creative director in white jeans/overalls
Just get there before (4?) because the juice/sandwich bar closes earlier than the store
