Oh, hallowed day in music! One of my most favorite albums of all time is the Dave Matthews & Tim Reynolds: Live at Luther College album. I just found out that a few days ago they released a follow up to it; Dave Matthews & Tim Reynolds: Live At Radio City Music Hall. I have been listening to that new masterpeice for the last half hour and it does not dissappoint. The album is just two guitars and Dave's voice and stories. I will update more as I become more familiar with the album. One cool thing is they do an acoustic version of a great song called "The Maker" which is about the internal journey of realizing that whether you understand it or not we are all the offspring of God. Our actions are always seen and heard by he who's hand made us, we are all walking a twisted mile and cannot hide; just embrace it. Here is a glimpse of one of the stanza's.
"Oh, oh deep water, black and cold like the night. I stand with arms wide open, I've run a twisted mile. I'm a stranger in the eyes of the Maker...
I could not see for the fog in my eyes. I could not feel for the fear in my life. From across the great divide in the distance I saw a light of Jean Baptiste's... he's walking to me with the Maker...
My body is bent and broken by long and dangerous sleep, I can't work the fields of Abraham and turn my head away.... I'm not a stranger in the hands of the Maker."
Just a teaser... but WOW... that's all I can say.
