My Aim is True album cover

Welcome to the Working Week

Elvis Costello

My junior year I moved off campus to a house under the Witch’s Hat (of All Along the Watchtower fame). The house was a dump. We were greeted by two dumpsters worth of trash piled at the curb by the previous tenants.

My girlfriend’s dad (now father-in-law) heard my roommate had a turntable and gifted me a crate of his old records. Lots of good stuff. My Aim is True is among my favorites from that crate and inspired my love of the Fender Jazzmaster. Thought this fitting for a Monday back after a holiday weekend, even though that’s not really what it’s about.

One song per day. Two hundred words or less.
