China was the tempest; [And] Madness overflowed.
[The] Lama was a young man,
          and [he] watched his world in flames.
Taking Glory down by the edge of clouds;
            It was a cryin'[g] shame.
Another lost horizon. Tibet the fallen star.
Wisdom and compassion Crushed, in the land of Shangri-La.
But in the land of the Impala, honey, well,
            we were lookin' Fine,
'cause we built that thing and it grew wings;
            In Nineteen-Fifty-Nine.
'Cause we built that thing and it grew wings;
            In Nineteen-Fifty-Nine.


~ patti smith, from 1959, peace and noise ~

Day by day night after night....Blinded by the neon lights
Hurry here hustlin' there....No one's got the time to spare
Money's tight nothin' free....Won't somebody come and rescue me
I am stranded....Caught in the crossfire Stranded....Caught in the crossfire.

Tooth for tooth eye for an eye....Sell your soul just to buy buy buy
Beggin' a dollar stealin' a dime....Come on can't you see that I
I am stranded....Caught in the crossfire

STEVIE RAY VAUGHN-IN STEP, LIVE FROM AUSTIN, TEXAS
-------------------------------------------------------
"The first time we met was in Austin, Texas at Antone's, and it was him and his brother Jimmie. That was fifteen or twenty years ago, and at the time he could play tremendously. And I said 'Someday, this kid's going to shake the whole world up.' And he was one of the nicest people. You couldn't help but like him; you couldn't help but love him."

"I never cry, but yesterday when I heard the news, I sat down on my bed and cried like a little baby."

- John Lee Hooker
