So I thought I'd pitch a word or two, just to get started. and then one word led to another... Turns out I enjoy being opinionated! I may do it some more. In fact here's one to chew on. The version of Thunder Road recorded by Tortoise with Bonnie 'Prince' Billy on the album The Brave and the Bold is better and more affecting than the Springsteen original.
