"art moves you in some way.It fits and feels right, or it doesn't fit in a way that feels deliciously wrong.You can talk all you want about brushstrokes or shades of green and blue but non of those are the things that move you. It's something else you might call spiritual".

Electric Eden
This book by Rob Young is a work of genius. Am taking it slow because the content is so fascinating . The chapter about Vashti Bunyan is worth the price alone. Am reading about William Morris , Arnold Bax and all kind of stuff that sets the mind racing. The chapter is called " Orgy on the Green" . Amazing insights into the work of Cecil Sharp ,Vaughn Williams, Holst and a host of English musicians and artists.
In this technology driven age it would appear we might just be missing something important. Maybe we may need to look backwards to move forward?
In other news there have been some awesome sunsets recently.
