With our monthly recommendations for December we‘re mildly obsessed with that ominous number 50, with sound and vision from those days half a century ago. Even Weyes Blood, my new number two of 2022, offers (besides other horizons) an aura that brings Laurel Canyon folk vibes from 1972 to new life, though being hard and tough in facing the dark times we‘re living in. And no doubt, Bob Dylan probably stumbles on a song from 50 years ago, too, in his new book – blurring time lines even more.
