Country Music and Faith System
My faith system is taking a major leap, trying to understand the hardest thing of all. To start thinking that, whatever you're taught from the book of believers is a mere cloud that hides the infinite truth! I cannot either put my journey to the new wave in words, for that, I would impure it in the process.
Meanwhile I'm also spending a lot of sleepless nights trying to hear quality music, a break from the routine sound or progression, I chose good old country music. I know I grew hearing them from my grand dad's gramophone. I cannot exactly get those 30s and 40s country music, what i ended up getting is the sub-genres called out-law country and blue-grass country. Definitely I want to stay away from John Denver's folk-country sound, as his mastery on lyrics, just hides away all the instrumentation. So I finally chose my favorite Alan Jackson, and started hearing his 90s albums, 'A Lot About Living', 'Who I am' and 'Dont Rock the Jukebox'. really a lot relaxing than a modern day sounds, having too many instruments, and making them all sound-out. Alan's sound is so unique that it allows you to pick the instrument you want to listen to, and there you are, hand in hand with the song. And as a contrapuntal, I also tried Andrea Bocelli's mind soothing Italian tenor on 'Incanto'. As on Ramzan, 20th August, I'm inspired to render Rumi's lines: You wander from room to room; Hunting for the diamond necklace; That is already around your neck!
