Time heals all wounds. Or, at least that is how the saying goes. But time never really does heal any wound completely. The older I get the more difficult it is. I never forget.
So lately (basically all last year and so far this year and well most of my life) I have been listening to Siouxsie and the Banshees. Especially the album "Tinderbox". It features John Valentine Carruthers on guitar. What a very very underrated guitar player he is! Before he was a Banshees he played in a band called "Clock DVA". He also played on the Banshees e.p. "The Thorn" and "Through the Looking Glass". After that latter, he left the band. A few years later he resurfaced in a band called "Crush" which released one self titled album in 1993. It has one of my favorite songs from my high school days called "The Rain" or sometimes called "(I Can't Stop) the Rain. The solo on that particular song is amazing. You know how sometimes a guitar solo will really just blow you away for some reason? This is one of them. After that I guess the band folded. But I wondered what ever happened to him? I doubt anyone on here knows but if so let me know. Curiosity kills.
You're with me We explore the sea You lure me in Tangled in your waves I seem to have dropped my net Now my fantasy is red I hope to discover All of your color You open up the sea And pull me back in My lungs have filled with water And my heart is filled with hope I don't care to breathe again Forever with you And the sea
