One thing I used to like doing back in England was to be in a toasty warm room, drinking something nice, looking out the window at the freezing cold world outside. Not much opportunity to do that in the Californian Central Valley, but today it was possible. It got down to 19f here last night, and although I know it is colder elsewhere, I did feel justified in sipping by mocha latte and gazing through the window. Here is some music that I felt fitted the mood.

Track Description:
A languid balmy start to things. Fogerty comes from close to where I now live in Porterville, but his music always sounded like it originated in swamp country, even in his Creedence days. I can just picture this playing as I sit in my rocking chair out on the front porch, iced drink in one hand, acoustic guitar in the other... SHOW LESS
