Larry and Lee

I discovered this awsome music shop in Camp Pune which features eclectic and rare CD which the owner prodly says "You will not find this kind of stuff in crosswords and planetM" . The best part is that he himself is a music freak and loves to talk about it.
Really its a pleasre dropping in there whenever I'm in the area.
On his recommendation I got myself this CD: Larry and Lee
Who Larry and Lee?
You may not have heard of them, but you have heard them for sure. Think The Wall (Floyd) and think Steely Dan. They are everywhere, being on top of list of hottest sessions guitarists.
This album is surely on top of my charts these days.
Check them out, this one's called Remembering JP
let me know what you think of them.

Happy Holi

I pity the poor immigrant
Who wishes he would've stayed home,
Who uses all his power to do evil
But in the end is always left so alone.
That man whom with his fingers cheats
And who lies with ev'ry breath,
Who passionately hates his life
And likewise, fears his death.

I pity the poor immigrant
Whose strength is spent in vain,
Whose heaven is like Ironsides,
Whose tears are like rain,
Who eats but is not satisfied,
Who hears but does not see,
Who falls in love with wealth itself
And turns his back on me.

I pity the poor immigrant
Who tramples through the mud,
Who fills his mouth with laughing
And who builds his town with blood,
Whose visions in the final end
Must shatter like the glass.
I pity the poor immigrant
When his gladness comes to pass.
