40 years ago today, Sonic Youth did a mind-blowing show in local club Vera in Groningen. Their first visit, and over the years SY and former members of SY returned many times. Today's (Almost) Daily Dose of Dynamic Delights, (A)DDDD0018 is to remember the beginning of a beautiful friendship in 1983.

Shaking Hell by Sonic Youth was recorded live @ Vera on November 24th, 1983

Phoebe Bridgers' annual holiday cover, with help of her boygenius bandmates.

'The Parting Glass' is a traditional Scottish song covered by everyone from Sinéad O’Connor, (featured on the cover art), to Hozier.
Like all of Bridgers’ holiday songs, proceeds will be donated, this year to the Aisling Project, a Dublin after school intervention program.

Here's my (Almost) Daily Dose of Dynamic Delights.

(A)DDDD0016 is 'And When I Die' (1966) by Laura Nyro.
The song provided a fitting motto for my living will that I had to write.

"I'm not scared of dying
And I don't really care
If it's peace you find in dying
Well, then let the time be near."

Today marks the 60st anniversary of the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. In 1963, a quarter million people participated in the historic march, gathering near the Lincoln Memorial. Some things have changed since, many things have not.
