only chains we can stand...
Eyes on the Prize
(Traditional)
... songs to live by ...
Mavis Staples
Bruce Springsteen,
The Seeger Sessions Band, Live in Dublin

A song that sings itself ... that is wrapped with history ... that is a breath of something more than words.
Lines from Gary Snyder's "I Went into the Maverick Bar" echo through me:
That short-haired joy and roughness—
America—your stupidity.
I could almost love you again.
