8. Three Dog Night - Out in the Country

Out In The Country

Whenever I need to leave it all behind
Or feel the need to get away
I find a quiet place, far from the human race
Out in the country

Before the breathin' air is gone
Before the sun is just a bright spot in the nighttime
Out where the rivers like to run
I stand alone and take back somethin' worth rememberin'

Whenever I feel them closing in on me
Or need a bit of room to move
When life becomes too fast, I find relief at last
Out in the country

Before the breathin' air is gone
Before the sun is just a bright spot in the nighttime
Out where the rivers like to run
I stand alone and take back somethin' worth rememberin'

Before the breathin' air is gone
Before the sun is just a bright spot in the nighttime
Out where the rivers like to run
I stand alone and take back somethin' worth rememberin'

Before the breathin' air is gone
Before the sun is just a bright spot in the nighttime
Out where the rivers like to run
I stand alone and take back somethin' worth rememberin'

Before the breathin' air is gone
Before the sun is just a bright spot in the nighttime...

I stand alone...

20. Fell in love with Prine on Austin City Limits (I think) when I heard that song

thanks for posting it

"and we wrote it all down as the progress of man"

Truly an American treasure

[amerikat]

21. Yes. I got my first dose of John Prine about 1973

ya know way back when when FM radio was open to everyone.
It was like one big open mike night. Anyone could take the
stage and sing a song. I miss those days, but I still go
to open mike night in the town I live in.
Eastbound Jesus performed at the last one.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GYBJwJNJ2EE
pretty slick video from some local folks.

And yes, An American treasure. I have seen him many times live.
With Bonny Raitt. With Steve Goodman, with Junior Brown. Everyone
wants to sing with JP.

Never saw him sing with Iris Dement, but enjoy this video.

19. Gaia - James Taylor

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=psYgLYq0nB8

The sky was light and the land all dark
The sun rose up over Central Park
I was walking home from work - Gaia

The petal sky and the rosy dawn
The world turning on the burning sun
Sacred wet green, one that we live on - Gaia

Run run run run, said the automobile, and we ran
Run for your life, take to your heels
Foolish school of fish on wheels - Gaia

Turn away from your animal kind
Try to leave your body just to live in your mind
Leave your cold cruel mother earth behind - Gaia

As if you were your own creation
As if you were the chosen nation
And the world around you just a rude and dangerous invasion - Gaia

Someone's got to stop us now
Save us from us, Gaia
No one's gonna stop us now


We thought we ought to walk awhile
So we left that town in a single file
Up and up and up, mile after mile after mile

We reached the tree line and I dropped my pack
Sat down on my haunches and I looked - back - down - over the mountain
Helpless and speechless and breathless - Gaia

Pray for the forest, pray to the tree
Pray for the fish in the deep blue sea
Pray for yourself, and for God's sake, say one for me
Poor wretched unbeliever

Someone's got to stop us now
Save us from us Gaia
No one's gonna stop us now

23. Now More Than Ever: 'POWER - John Hall - No Nukes Concert 1979'

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=doUR5KW-ii8&feature=related

Just give me the warm power of the sun
Give me the steady flow of a waterfall
Give me the spirit of living things as they return to clay

Just give me the restless power of the wind
Give me the comforting glow of a wood fire
But please take all of your atomic poison power away

Everybody needs some power I'm told
To shield them from the darkness and the cold
Some may see a way to take control
When it's bought and sold

I know that lives are at stake
Yours and mine and our descendants in time
There's so much to gain, so much to lose
Everyone of us has to choose

Just give me the warm power of the sun
Give me the steady flow of a waterfall
Give me the spirit of living things as they return to clay

Just give me the restless power of the wind
Give me the comforting glow of a wood fire
But please take all of your atomic poison power away


We are only now beginning to see
How delicate the balance of nature can be
The limits of her ways have been defined
And we've crossed that line

Some don't even care or know that we'll pay
But we have seen the face of death in our day
There's so little time to change our ways
If only we together can say

Just give me the warm power of the sun
Give me the steady flow of a waterfall
Give me the spirit of living things as they return to clay

Just give me the restless power of the wind
Give me the comforting glow of a wood fire
But please take all of your atomic poison power
All of your atomic poison power
All of your atomic poison power away
