til #tful282 have been re-releasing stuff on bandcamp so only just found out about this 2-lp collection of rarities. i *think* i have some of it via the blessed fan-produced duck duck chimp comps, and i rarely buy vinyl anymore, but it was too good to pass up.

Too late to look up if I've ever done a #MusicalOffering for #ThinkingFellersUnionLocal282 or not, but was just listening to this deep cut and wanted to share. If I've not done them before, will circle around tomorrow and add some personal commentary about one of my absolute favests. Until then, from Wormed By Leonard, enjoy I Don't Know

From lily lips unbroken
A child, Emmanuel
Soft moonlight, sparkling starlight
Shocked shepherds standing still

Sweet sacred sleeping baby
No clue of future woes
Safe now in peaceful slumber
No thorns to harm the budding rose

Wise kings bear sober presents
Gold, frankincense and myrrh
Grave future duty hinted
But Jesus fails to stir

Soft dreams are warm protection
Bright angels' comforts flow
Sweet cherubs dance on sunbeams
Ward off the weight of fearsome load…

I made a spotify playlist of the 50 best (in my estimation) songs by Thinking Fellers Union Local 282, and it's entirely fabulous:

Because they wilfully littered all their albums with lots of half-arsed noodling it's easy to forget how many *great* songs they wrote. Put them all together in one place and you're left with one of the most joyously inventive and free-spirited song catalogues of the US 80s-90s. Put it on random and have yourself a time.
