20 yrs of : ________

This song is for David Lester. He's playing guitar - both of them. He's impeccably dressed. He's an author and an artist but if you met him, you would probably guess that he's an architect.

Mecca Normal - 1922

This song is for Jean Smith. She's singing a poem or reading an essay. She's remarkably lean. She's an interpreter and a storyteller although if you met her you would probably guess that she's fiercely everything.

Mecca Normal - The Caribou and The Oil Pipeline

The above lines barely manage to cover Mecca Normal's new album/present tour. The band is best described by their amazing catalogue of books, records, posters, paintings, output, output, output, output.

I met David Lester. He does look remarkably architectural.

Thanks much for these. Mecca Normal is terrific, vastly underrated. And I've met Jean and Dave and they're the nicest people ever. (And yes, Dave does look like an architect.)
