When I proudly showed my partner Kamilah “Two Suns in the Sunset“ on YouTube on Sunday morning, I freaked out because the acoustic guitar entry was a good 5db down in level. This may seem like a small thing to you, but it’s not to me. Call me obsessive-compulsive, but I can’t watch it like that. So for anyone who’s interested, this is a re-post with that small glitch corrected. Love R. --- I had an idea to make an album of all the songs we did as encores on the US and Them tour. We did “Mother“ first. Had to do it remotely because of Covid-19. “Two Suns in The Sunset“ is #2. Hope you like it. I love it. What a beautiful band they are. Love R. PS. That we allow Nuclear Weapons to exist in a world controlled by deranged sociopaths is, in itself, a deranged arrangement. We are many they are few. We could just say no, to the whole MAD (Mutually Assured Destruction) insanity. It makes zero sense and is potentially omnicidal.
