Gabriel Gordon
From ANDRAS JONES: BRIAN BENDER is a Grammy award winning producer/engineer/musician/composer, an internet enigma, and a literal and figurative baker. He’s also a good friend of our musical guest GABRIEL GORDON. This whole episode with Gabriel is full of laughs and none more so than this one in which we talk about Philip Glass, T-Bone Burnett, the fog of phones, and the moment of discomfort that began our recording and by this segment is clearly water under the bridge. It’s so nice when people stick around and work out their issues rather than storming out of the studio and making up a bunch of stories and drama to cover it up.
Featuring Meshell Ndegeocello. Produced by Brian Bender.
Marine Layer
Helicopters flying overhead
Was it something I did or was it what I said
I’m lookin down at the fog now baby
Between you and me
There ain’t no maybes
But I wanna know
Do you feel like me?
But I gotta know
Are you real like me?
I ain’t trying to reinvent the wheel baby
Ancient Persia and Sumeria too
They had 12 hour clocks
They had the wheel and fire too
Why is it so hard for you and me baby
To pretend we got something
That we lost a long, long time ago
I’ve been looking down at the fog now baby
Wondering what to do
But I wanna know
Do you feel like me?
But I gotta know
Are we really free?
I ain’t trying to reinvent the wheel baby
Pacific Coast Highway
Headed into the Sun
Wash away the stains of
What these days have done
Bring me closer and then turn me loose
I don’t wanna choose between misery and sorrow
I only want forward motion
But I wanna know
Do you feel like me?
But I gotta know
Are we really free?
I ain’t trying to reinvent the wheel
