Months tick by. I hope you all are hanging in there, and trust that if you have the time and energy and life circumstances to be reading this right now, that you're doing basically okay, which is to say better than many. But it's still weird and stressful and surreal, all the more surreal because we've all kind of gotten used to the surreality: the people in masks, the deliveries, the not-gatherings, the endless Zoom-ing. So here’s the latest playlist to accompany our collective dream state, which isn’t a dream at all, sadly. We open with an indescribably great track from the indescribably great new Waxahatchee album (a song with the all too appropriate title “Can’t Do Much”) and travel on from there: we’ve got classic rock nuggets, obscure garage rock, an all-time Northern Soul standard, and (wait for it) Wham!. Among others. We aim for joy, surrounded by a “chain of sorrow,” to use the indelible words of the great John Prine. For more info visit http://fingertipsmusic.com/?p=20777
