Downtown Church


The new Patty Griffin album, 'Downtown Church', may in fact save your soul. It's that good.

I have always been a fan ofd Griffin's immense songwriting talent, so I was honestly a bit leery of her doing what is mostly a covers record...especially a gospel-tinged covers record. Why oh why did I ever doubt her? It's such a great album. Featuring mostly obscure gospel tunes(as opposed to overly evangelical ones), including a Hank Williams song, the album is like a beautiful time warp.

I could go on and on, but I think I will just get out of the way and let the music speak for itself...this one is an instant classic.

Maybe one day you'll remember me...


I love the sentiment in this beautiful Patty Griffin song. So simple. So true. I wonder a lot about whether people who have come and gone from my life think about me as much as I think about them.

There have been so many people who have wandered into my life for what seems like just a moment, but at just the right moment. They were their to show me the way when I really needed to be shown, or otherwise got me through a really trying time. This song is for all of those folks...I hope I was able to help you half as much as you helped me...you know who you are.
