day 338: Liquid Swords

Liquid Swords, by GZA.

This song works on so many levels. Maybe, like me, you heard Liquid Swords, Joe Biden’s favorite Wu-Tang Clan album, when it came out, in situ, an unexpected masterwork from GZA, The Genius, RZA’s cousin, a future collaborator of Vangelis, the head of the Voltron, according to Method Man.

Or, maybe you came to it later. Or maybe you saw his late-before-times NPR Tiny Desk concert, where he does this track live, and it slays.

No guitar today, so I cleared another MIDI-keyboard-and-Garage-Band-loops hip-hop track off the list.

My delivery is what it is.
