44 Here Comes Coy to Save the Motherland

[alice wellintown]

Some stuff on Jobim here.
"Only people without soul cannot understand what there is to be sad
about in life. Our music is beautiful because sadness is more
beautiful than happiness.”

-- Antônio Carlos Jobim, 1985

We saw the old man at Carnegie recently, he was lovely. No Jobim, no
daughter, no one but the old man and a guitar. He seemed a bit uneasy,
a wind, he complained was blowing on his head. Maybe it was a sign
from the wind and brass ghosts.
