This episode finds me "by my own" for once, and I'm in a weird state. I looked forward to this "Bombastic Complication" as it had been fun the last time I tried it, which was (gulp) five years ago. I was flying solo then, too. But the thing about worsening depression is that you literally become numb, I guess, unable to experience joy. More on this in an upcoming diary entry. At any rate, I am audibly missing Lady Catharsis, moaning out loud about her absence. Elsewhere I am haunted by the ghosts of bad segues, and I lament mistakes that never happened. Apparently I need a caretaker.
Not to say that the episode was free from the usual errors--I biff the segue leading into "Float On," as apparently Alvin Lives (In Leeds) carries some kind of curse that acts upon me. I seem flabbergasted that 1998 was two decades ago, which could be an awakening, or just symptomatic of something. I credit Lux Interior for curating Beat from Badsville, but not Ivy Rorschach, which is a bad look. I could probably have chosen more "adventurous" tracks at the expense of some of the "sure things." Speaking about Bo Diddley in the present tense was intentional, though, because he does live forever.
Onward and upward!
