February 22, 2014: Hard Times

I got better at talking and worse at playing music as I tried to incorporate online streaming audio tracks and got totally sidelined by THREE REQUESTS, up from the previous record of zero. The theme was poverty, hardship, and people generally having a tough time. The recording was done kind of piecemeal and it's a bit fuzzy and has some missing bits. Sorry!
