After a year of therapy, my psychiatrist said to me, "Maybe life isn't for everyone." ― Larry Brown

Inspired by a comment in a Rick Beato video on albums with great sound, this album was referenced in a comment (not the video).

I remembered Jennifer Warnes sang the famous Time of My Life with Bill Medley, so this album from her may be good...

And four songs on, the sound is quite transparent, clear and quite a treat - when you don't have to keep up with all the notes (as in complex technical metal bands/albums)... [Update: Heard the entire album eventually.]

This album, Famous Blue Raincoat (1987) is a Leonard Cohen tribute album... Her sixth studio album.

Great to discover non-famous/popular music from famous/popular musicians.

(Hope you get the meaning behind these clumsily put words... Like consciously focusing on Europe's songs Danger on the Track and other songs in the album over the massive hit The Final Countdown.)

Do enjoy!

After I moved back to Columbus in 1993 and my mom and dad promptly moved to Kansas, I got a job at the Dublin Branch Library but I wasn't writing. I sorely lacked creative discipline and drive.

This memoir by Larry Brown (1951-2004) absolutely changed my life. It's about the 15+ years he spent as a firefighter in Oxford, MS, while raising a family and knowing, deep down that he wanted to write.

He put his nose to the grindstone and started writing whenever he could. Chipping away at it! This eventually, miraculously, led to 10 published books and a career that was sadly cut short by a heart attack.

I read On Fire and it inspired me to apply to writing graduate programs. A year later, I was in my car, driving out to California and USC. I've been here ever since.
