My dad had these two albums when I was a kid. The bright red room with the woman on the couch drew me into Big Calm immediately. All the songs kind of match it somehow, chilled out, slowed down. Floating into The Night has such a wonderland effect about it. Whenever I put this album on I’m always asleep soon after and it feels like I’ve been floated into blackness like the cover. This album has all her songs she did for Twin Peaks on it and that show often has me falling asleep too - I say it’s the music that lulls me into watching an episode multiple times to mitigate the parts I slept through. ultimate “I can’t fucking sleep” album for me.

If it’s a rainy foggy night, deluxe. I also read most of Veronica while listening to this album and that combination was true transcendence. Literally gave me chills.

my favourite album of all time. brings me comfort like nothing else. i wouldnt say its a no skip album but its worth a full listen thru at least once. perfect for a rainy day and reminiscing.

This album is like when you’re in the park on a summer day, a bit stoned, and everything seems to be pretty hazy. No one’s really following a conversation per se, and no one knows how long you’ve been sitting there for.
One of four highly anticipated solo records from the Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young boys, released in I think ‘71. I dont know enough about CSNY to compare and contrast (except that I know Neil Young was never interested much in this kind of la-la-la’ing on his solo efforts).
I like this record because it’s like insight into the mind of the last living Hippie, the true Hippie- snapshots and reel to reels from the end of the Love Decade. It sorta feels like Crosby’s standing there in the rain wondering what happened to everyone, when was it hip to get paranoid? Maybe we were lost in a flower dream the whole time!
This is seriously easy listening- and I disagree with Lester Bangs who called it “the perfect aural aid to digestion”- this is music to wander around to, to contemplate some things to, or just to zone out to.

Found him at a flea market and kept walking away and then coming back. hes too small to actually be heard from outside so I popped him on the wall by my computer where I can knock him while I’m doing tasks.

I really love painting Los Angeles, showing all her little hidden gems that give her character. If you have cute/fun business reccs for me to visit and paint please lmk!
