Wandering Gypsy Mixtape - Ode to Kerouac
You can listen to the playlist as one continuous stream by clicking on the stream player at the bottom of my blog. Really wanted to include Bob Dylan’s Freight Train Blues but no one had uploaded it to tumblr already and as far as I know this reblogging technique is the only way to share a mixtape without storing it elsewhere. “I woke up as the sun was reddening; and that was the one distinct time in my life, the strangest moment of all, when I didn’t know who I was - I was far away from home, haunted and tired with travel, in a cheap hotel room I’d never seen, hearing the hiss of steam outside, and the creak of the old wood of the hotel, and footsteps upstairs, and all the sad sounds, and I looked at the cracked high ceiling and really didn’t know who I was for about fifteen strange seconds. I wasn’t scared; I was just somebody else, some stranger, and my whole life was a haunted life, the life of a ghost.” — Jack Kerouac 1. Quito - The Mountain Goats 2.
