SUR L’ILE ENCORE
I have the most wonderful feeling. Chilled bones, broiling skin. I spent the morning in the Atlantic, throwing myself in, thru, on top of, and under waves. My version of bodysurfing is crawling on the wave, like a crocodile. I tried to copy the effortlessly graceful form of a real bodysurfer today, but couldn’t get the same distance he did. It doesn’t matter…last night, doing the same activity, I truly felt in a place out of time…Monet colors in the sky, the sun going down, nothing but rippled sand under my feet, the water at times embracing, at others bracing…
Last week I spent a couple of days in the cozy place that is Le Studio de La Truite, which is a convenient 15-minute walk from my home. I recorded a cover of Luis Francesco Arena's song 'Waterlilies and Creatures'; and I played on his cover of 'The Lover's Hymn'. They both turned out in very modified ways from the original versions; they will each be the side of a 7" single to be released on FiatLux records in France, in the fall. I'll of course let you know.
And, now, back to my previously scheduled vacation...
