about

Immersion Composition Society Session.

The chords/melody are loosely based on the number of infected and dead in Massachusetts (28,163 / 957) when I started this project.

I lived in Northampton for about 18 months between graduating from Hampshire College and moving to Seattle. At the time, all the war veterans were released from the local mental hospital, which made for a lot of colorful characters around town.

In 1983 I rented a house at 1 Graves Avenue for $75 a month. As fate would have it, my sister had lived in Northampton on Graves Avenue ten years before.

lyrics

1 Graves Avenue
hearing the trains flow by day and night

Suntan man basking in front of the bank
catching rays every day
bald and gold and bald and golden, bald and gold
