Meet Some Of My Friends (the Velvet Underground Edition) :: A Holiday At The Sea Playlist

Welcome to the first installment of what I hope will be an ongoing playlist series throughout 2023 where I introduce you to some of my favorite music. I often make playlists for my car and I thought I might as well share them here.

We kick off the series with the Velvet Underground. I tried to keep it to cuts from the studio albums, but I really like “I’m Beginning To See the Light” from 1969: The Velvet Underground Live. Whether you know them or not, I hope you enjoy this playlist.

Setlist:

  1. Who Loves The Sun

  2. Some Kinda Love

  3. Sweet Jane

  4. Sister Ray

  5. I'm Waiting For The Man

  6. Rock & Roll

  7. Beginning To See The Light

  8. Here She Comes Now

  9. I'm Set Free

  10. White Light/White Heat

  11. Run Run Run

Meet Me At The Gates :: A Holiday at the Sea Spiritual Rendezvous

As we enter Junior Year of the Pandemic, I have been looking outside of the expected places for comfort, assurance, and even meaning.

In those olden days of yore, the “Elders” or the “wise ones of a city” might meet at the city gate where they would gather to discuss life’s complexities and to offer advice to those who asked.

I know none of you asked, and I don’t claim to be wise, but if any of you ever wanted to meet at the gate, here would be my advice.
