Ad Frank and the Fast Easy Women - The Five Days We Were Friends
This one feels like cheating. It’s not that old. But it came on my iPod this morning and it’s been a while since I posted, and, DAMN THIS SONG IS AWESOME.
Classic amazing one long crescendo song (oo which makes me think of another song I have to post soon), and lyrically awesome - immediate connections, lost, short loves, romantic bonds but no practical way to ever make anything work. It’s one of Ad’s finest works I think.
I had the honor of covering this song at the Ad Frank 40’s Birthday party tribute show - made an ad hoc band with a bunch of Barbarians and we rocked it out.
Makes me feel nostalgic for a simpler day.
And I swear I am going to steal that painting from the cover - it’s hanging at Sean and Jussi’s house and one party I’m just going to make off with it. WANT.
