“Back in 1967, Timothy Leary, Allen Ginsberg, Gary Snyder, & Allen Cohen joined Alan Watts on his houseboat to chat about society. And they taped it. And now we can tune in to the conversation up here in the 2020s (where we could all do with some 'turning on' and 'dropping out'). Yay internet.”
“Immersed in a sea of musical textures. A million moments realized. Transported.”
I am going to be giving myself a wee vacation from all of my self-assigned blogging duties for at least the next week or so (as my nieces are coming to visit and offline Uncle Mode™ will need to be activated).

The HI54 ‘Provincial Playlists’ idea continues, this time with 95 nice tracks from 95 different artists being carefully exported from the Canadian province of Ontario for your listening pleasure / headphone tourism needs.
