The last time

I wrote about

Puma Blue

on this blog

was in 2017

and it feels

like only

a second ago

and now I feel

like a skeleton.

His new album,

In Praise of Shadows,

is a gem

of a nighttime

vibe. A midnight

isolated lullaby.

His sound

is resoundingly

his own.

Lofi Jeff Buckley

with more smoke

in the lungs.

Lovely and raw.

He'd be really

great to see

inside a tiny

dark venue.

Some day.

Please.
