Episode 10: Horses, Imaginary New England Farms and the Man on the Marquee Moon
Manage episode 291712060 series 2887347
In new spaces, records have a way of taking on new lives, of opening themselves up to new interpretations and renewed appreciation. And that was the case earlier this spring when, as I found myself missing everything we left behind in Boise, I started drip-feeding Television’s "Marquee Moon" and Patti Smith’s "Horses."
Clearly Smith and Verlaine did not have the static comfort of suburbia in mind when they wrote these songs, but the way I gravitated toward "Marquee Moon," in particular, makes sense considering it feels like we’re living on the moon.
