Up top, I want to say ‘hello’ and thanks to Barely Awake In Frog Pajamas, who has been kind enough to add a link on their site back to F45. All hail!

This morning on the Kid’s Kommute we listened to Dave Carter and Tracy Grammer’s album from 2001, Drum Hat Buddha.

I was introduced to their music last year when a pair of singers covered Gentle Arms of Eden during a service at our church. (The church I attend is one of those sanctuaries for people who don’t fit in anywhere else. I call it The Church of The Misfit Toys. Naturally, you get a lot of musicians in the congregation).

This morning, Ordinary People caught my 6-year old’s attention, who asked if “we’re all in a town”. I’m never good at answering those questions that could ultimate become more intricate than a Zen Koan.

My 10-year old is a lot more straight-ahead. He latched-on to Tillman Co without any deep questions, just that I play it over and over between home and the front door of school (which is exactly what I do when I hear a song I like).

Sadly, Carter passed away shortly after making this record. You can read a little about their partnership here.
