lyrics
Thunderbird, moving like a cloud
Making all the rains come down
Thunderbird, fire in your eyes
Every time the big drum pounds
Only so much I can see
Always been a mystery
Woman, moving like a cloud
Dancing where the sun lies down
Won't you take me on the wind
If I could only fly somehow
Only so much I can see
You'll always be a mystery
Thunderbird, rising like a storm
Making all the rivers swell
Cold shadows on the earth
In the grass where arrows fell
Only so much I can see
Some things are a mystery
Only so much I can see
You'll always be a mystery
Woman, sleeping like a cloud
Dreaming of a greener world
Thunderbird sleeping for a spell
Dreaming of a greener world
Only so much I can see
You'll always be a mystery
Only so much I can see
You'll always be a mystery
Thunderbird

Gonzo. Passion. The Ming Vase. Haunting and beautiful. Every listen brings a new favorite.
Do something like this again, Miss Emma. Please let the answer be yes. Please let the answer be yes! alien9
Such a joy to see live at Pappy & Harriet's and here's to your 70th - may the next trip around the sun bring you the joy you have brought us

I'm still a little blown away by the fact that one of my guitar influences released an instrumental guitar album on the same day as me and I didn't realize it.
But I've listened to it twice now and it gets better with every play.
In places it's like Syd Barret, Robby Krieger, and the Penguin Cafe Orchestra are having a jam session. Darren Douglas Danahy
Soulful guitar interplay form the heart of this lovely Americana collaboration from Dave Alvin and Jimmie Dale Gilmore. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 2, 2018
