Steely Dan...
Perfect for a not-so-closeted Buddhist. To wit:
Bodhisattva
Would you take me by the hand
Bodhisattva
Would you take me by the hand
Can you show me
The shine of your japan
The sparkle of your china
Can you show me
Bodhisattva
Bodhisattva
I'm gonna sell my house in town
Bodhisattva
I'm gonna sell my house in town
And I'll be there
To shine in your japan
To sparkle in your china
Yes I'll be there
Bodhisattva
Ah, yes... the "shine of your Japan." We are more than familiar with that.
Steely Dan and I go back quite a ways, back to the days when "production" had entirely different meanings to different bands. Steely Dan's production values were preeminent in their day... sparkling cymbals, perfectly recorded guitar runs, crisp percussion, absolute vocal clarity, the whole nine yards... an unusual thing in the days of mass produced, throw away vinyl. And they could turn a phrase like few bands before or since, not to mention their sheer musicality. The Dan is just perfect for an otherwise down day here on The High Plains of New Mexico.
Show me the shine in your Japan. Please.
