I was searching for some music by Harry Partch the other day, and I came across a site that had once had a whole Partch album on it. Browsing through the page, I saw some songs with interesting titles, and clicked around randomly. One tune I listened to was called Crooked Legs. And I was stunned. It was really good. And so I investigated further and found out something about a band called The Acorn.
The Acorn – Crooked Legs [play] [buy]
Its the same song I found. The rest of the album is good, but this song is just awesome to me. Trumpets, guitars, vocals all over the place. I received the beginning very warmly, liking the parts, liking the melody. And then, the chorus. I’m stunned. I said that before, but its still true. I’ve been dealt a blow to my cranium that just stops me in my tracks.
And maybe that’s the point, maybe returning to the city isn’t what we need. I should just pick myself up and use my warped legs to get as far away from here as I can…
Maybe I will.
