i’ve been leaning into relinguishing power over things recently that i once would have preferred to have more control over. not resisting when the universe acts upon me. and although things may not be going quite how i would like them to, i wouldn’t change it. let’s see where else this goes yah?DOWNLOAD/STREAM RECORDING00:00 (intro by omar)00:20 Helvetia “Hanging In A Car” Fantastic Life01:41 Green-House “Perennial Bloom” Six Songs for Invisible Gardens04:25 Al Riggs “real repent pt. 2” ganglian08:19 The Tissues “Salt Shaker” Blue Film10:58 aric “An Afternoon!

As we've noted here before, Durham-based songwriter al Riggs keeps very busy. Their new album is called I Got a Big Electric Fan to Keep Me Cool While I Sleep. Though they bounce around genre-wise, this LP is rooted in country rock traditions and it features contributions from cosmic pedal steel guitarist Chuck Johnson, Patrick Haggerty of Lavender Country, and others. Riggs joined us for a discursive chat, exploring their relationship with country music and, of course, Robert Altman's failed cult film Popeye.

It’s episode 165 of Adobe & Teardrops! Thanks for sticking with me!   Well, everything is coming up Rachel this week. I’ve been on spring break. I joined a fantasy baseball league. I joined a queer softball league. Opening day is in less than an hour as I record this. We might be moving into a 2-bedroom apartment in the same building. Oh yeah -- things are good. Also, an interview with Hey, King!   Album of the Week: Hope Dunbar -- Sweetheartland   Hope Dunbar’s Sweetheartland. This is the kind of music I’ve been looking for since I started Adobe & Teardrops. Dunbar has an awesome heartland rock sound while staying true to herself, something that, frankly, I haven’t seen many women who go for that sound really succeed at. She’s a great storyteller, which we’ll hear on “What Were You Thinking,” and can really pull out the stops with “Evacuate,” which Patreon subscribers will hear. Elizabeth King -- “Living in the Last Days” (Living in the Last Days) (2:46) Cristina Vane -- “Blueberry Hill” (Nowhere Sounds Lovely) (5:55) Kai Mata -- “Wine” (Single) (9:55) Henry Conlon -- “Lucy” (Single) (13:59) Valerie June -- “Stay” (The Moon and the Stars: Prescriptions for Dreamers) (19:00) Hope Dunbar -- “What Were You Thinking” (Sweetheartland) (22:01) Scott Making Cents -- “Profile Picture” (Dog EP) (25:28) Andrew Waite -- “Ain’t Goin’ Out Like That” (Single) (28:55) al Riggs -- “Ragged But Right” (I Got A Big Electric Fan To Keep Me Cool While I Sleep) (33:20) Amina Shareef Ali -- “Honest Song” (In The Dark (Awake Of Course)) (36:33) The Barker Brothers -- “Thinkin’ June” (Single) (39:41) Claire Kelly -- “The Restless and the Reckless” (The Scenic Route) (42:39) Hey, King! -- Interview and “Half Alive.” (Read the rest of the interview here.)

Local musician & friend-o-the-pod Al Riggs comes on to attempt to split the room with Tim Burton's BATMAN RETURNS (1992). Will Quinton love it? Will Enoch hate it?

Per Austin, FBI is the movie prompt this week, and we're doing a lot of digging to uncover the conspiracies (or verdicts) about a couple of movies: Quinton thinks Enoch will love the brand spankin' new film depicting the events leading up to the death of Fred Hampton, JUDAS AND THE BLACK MESSIAH (2021). Enoch thinks Quinton will hate the Mark Wahlberg political thriller vehicle, SHOOTER (2007).JUDAS AND THE BLACK MESSIAH (2021) discussion starts at 2:37. SHOOTER (2007) discussion starts at 44:04.[If you're reading this on the day of release, that means yesterday was the last day to watch JUDAS AND THE BLACK MESSIAH (2021) for the limited viewing that HBO Max is doing.
