	Was it fate that brought us together? I’m not usually one for magic In fact I’ve mostly been a sceptic But there is something here That’s hard to deny Something here That changed my life Desert dog You gave your heart to me Desert dog So much that you taught me I am a better man Than I was before Desert dog Your spirit moves through me Paw prints in the sand Where I went to spread your ashes Rez dogs howling on the wind When I sang our song to you I lay down on the ground And in the photo your shadow is there with me Desert dog You gave your heart to me Desert dog So much that you taught me I am a better man Than I was before Desert dog Your spirit moves through me Desert dog Your voice blends with my voice Desert dog Your shining in this turquoise Desert dog I love you with my whole heart Desert dog I know that we’ll never part Desert dog I’ll always love you <3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3

about

This is a song I wrote for my beloved dog Hubbell, may she rest in eternal peace.

I recently ventured to the Navajo reservation in the high desert of northwestern Arizona to spread her ashes.

I found the exact place where I had adopted her back in 2009.
And then, just up the way from there, on a beautiful ridge looking out at the desert bluffs, that is where I decided to spread her ashes.

There were paw prints in the sand, other rez dogs howling on the wind, a tuft of fur drifting through the juniper breeze, and what appears to be her likeness in shadow in a photo taken of me lying on the ground.

Gills
by Spacemonster

Electrically charged surges of lo-fi hard candy. Cultural vomit seeping out of a dust-caked bedroom window, riding sunbeams. A gem of work, quick and to the point from a true VA tape-head. Kevin Knight

Great lo-fi garage psych/unclassifiable indie fuzz from lovely group of buds in Richmond. I used to play with these guys (and girl) and truly miss those days. But here is their debut full length LP Kevin Knight
