		<description><![CDATA[Back in November, I posted a brief narrative piece from the Moody Blues&#8217; album Days of Future Passed, along with some thoughts on the album&#8217;s New Age underpinnings and its influence on me and on my novel The Ten Weeks. A snatch of that narrative piece is a good way to note the sad passing [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Since this is the day we&#8217;re supposed to think about these things, I&#8217;m going to feature an album from The Ancient Star-Song that&#8217;s a favourite of mine: Choose Life, from the School Sisters of Notre Dame (in Mankato, MN.) Since the album dates from 1976, I would think that, when they recorded the title track [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is the last in the series of music videos from music alluded to in the novel The Ten Weeks. But it&#8217;s not a video: it&#8217;s a more prosaic &#8220;photo and sound clip&#8221; combo from a scene in the book combined with a brief excerpt from the Moody Blues&#8217; Days of Future Passed. This album [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This week, I&#8217;m going to veer away from the &#8220;Top 40&#8243; stuff in this series of music alluded to in the novel The Ten Weeks.  And veer is a nice way to put it: it&#8217;s a video of Jethro Tull&#8217;s &#8220;A New Day Yesterday,&#8221; originally on their second album, Stand Up. This live performance comes [...]]]></description>

This is a relatively new performance, but this is still a very smooth and beguiling song and [...]]]></description>

On the album with the same name, the song ends with a very effective fade out.  Unfortunately, that couldn&#8217;t [...]]]></description>
