Jim Ward Morris : Bellingham WA 2019
Vintage-analog baritone electric guitar, bass keyboard and drums,
vintage tube amplifiers, vintage microphones, and analog high-speed (15
ips) 1/2 inch reel to reel magnetic tape machines were used to make
these recordings : Original analog recording tapes were converted to a
digital Waveform Audio File Format (WAV) for internet and online social
media objectives : During the digital playback of these recordings (for
the best listening experience) use high-quality speakers or headphones.
Jim Jarmusch : I love variation and repetition in art and music. I love repeated things, whether it is in Bach or Andy Warhol. I like to make films of little structure : A metaphor of each day, every day is a variation of the day before. It’s a Buddhist thing to be accepting, just letting things be as they are, no answers. There is a poetic rhyme and reason to simple ordinariness. There is pleasure in the repetitive.

Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues
When you’re lost in the rain in Juarez
When it’s Eastertime too
And your gravity fails
And negativity don’t pull you through
Don’t put on any airs
When you’re down on Rue Morgue Avenue
They got some hungry women there
And they really make a mess outta you
Now if you see Saint Annie
Please tell her thanks a lot
I cannot move
My fingers are all in a knot
I don’t have the strength
To get up and take another shot
And my best friend, my doctor
Won’t even say what it is I’ve got
Sweet Melinda
The peasants call her the goddess of gloom
She speaks good English
And she invites you up into her room
And you’re so kind
And careful not to go to her too soon
As she takes your voice
And leaves you howling at the moon
Up on Housing Project Hill
It’s either fortune or fame
You must pick up one or the other
Though neither of them are to be what they claim
If you’re lookin’ to get silly
You better go back to from where you came
Because the cops don’t need you
And man they expect the same
Now all the authorities
They just stand around and boast
How they blackmailed the sergeant-at-arms
Into leaving his post
And picking up Angel who
Just arrived here from the coast
Who looked so fine at first
But left looking just like a ghost
I started out on burgundy
But soon hit the harder stuff
Everybody said they’d stand behind me
When the game got rough
But the joke was on me
There was nobody even there to bluff
I’m going back to New York City
I do believe I’ve had enough

WILSON PICKETT IN THE MIDNIGHT HOUR
In The Midnight Hour: Wilson Pickett
Written By: Wilson Pickett and Steve Cropper
I'm gonna wait till the midnight hour
That's when my love comes tumbling down
I'm gonna wait till the midnight hour
When there's no one else around
I'm gonna take you girl and hold you
And do all the things I told you
In the midnight hour
Yes I am
Oh, Yes I am
One more thing I just want to say right here
I'm gonna wait till the stars come out
And see that twinkle in your eyes
I'm gonna wait till the midnight hour
That's when my love begins to shine
You're the only girl I know
That really loves me so
In the midnight hour
Oh Yeah...In the midnight hour
Yeah, Alright, play it for me one time now
Solo:
I'm gonna wait till the midnight hour
That's when my love comes tumbling down
I'm gonna wait, way in the midnight hour
That's when my love begins to shine
Just you and I, Oh baby
Just you and I
Nobody around baby
Just you and I, Alright
I'm gonna hold you, In my arms
Just you and I
Oh Yeah...In the midnight hour.
