Some days require a listen to perfect albums. With the kids' naptime finally arrived, I was looking forward to listening to some of the more experimental sounds from Tom Waits' new Orphans collection. I also planned to give a listen to the new Robert Plant nine disc set. Another choice that I found last night was a new 90-track set by The Doors.
But then I remembered a favorite album of mine from so many years ago that seemed perfect for relaxing in some well-deserved quiet time. And so now I am listening to The Cowboy Junkies' The Caution Horses. Margo and company soothe and satisfy. This is probably the most "comfortable" album I have ever owned.
My favorite lyric from "Sun Comes Up, It's Tuesday Morning":
Telephone's ringing, but I don't answer it
'cause everybody knows that good news always sleeps till noon.
Good advice, Margo. And thanks for singing so sweetly.
That is one of my all time favorite lines too.
