Oooooh, yeah, totally forgot about that one. From that period when Garth Hudson was playing with them! So cool. Small consolation but I did put a cover of their “let the day begin” on the last playlist…

Just discussing this in a Bible study this morning. So many Biblical songs out there and few notice. Disguised as romance often. (Peter Gabriel’s In Your Eyes, not about a girl.)
A sticky social media request: put these playlists on Spotify. Just looked for mockingbirdnyc to subscribe. If you are there, not coming up.
