“The record you didn’t know you needed is what I am listening to in the other room.”

Faded concert posters line the dark walls. Wisps of incense smoke curl through the golden light.

1001 Albums Day 35 – OK Computer

I think this is the 4th or 5th time I have tried to listen to and appreciate this album, and my efforts have failed miserably on every attempt. It isn’t at all enjoyable to me and there is nothing I hear that I connect with or find interesting.

You know how there is a gene that some people have that makes cilantro taste like soap so no matter what they just don’t enjoy it. I think I have a gene that makes OK Computer taste like soap…

I chose “Lucky” as my feature as it seems to be a song I can appreciate when others play it. Gov’t Mule covered it at my very first show and Warren Haynes opened his Bonnaroo set with it one time with an acoustic version I enjoy.
