Body Dumper Track for Week of June 21, 2010
This week’s Body Dumper anthem is “Love On My Brain” by Jim Ford. It was on his 1969 album “Harlan County”. I love this song, It sounds strikingly similar to Van Morrison and that may not be an accident. The question is: Who influenced (ripped off) who? That does not matter when you are driving with an angel faced squirrel and this one comes on.
It’s a tremendous jam for sunny day, freedom fighting, late 1960’s Dumper drives. The kind of song that would accompany your ride to Woodstock or the food Co-Op. People with the purest intentions doing drugs for the right reasons. It’s a beautiful song. Enjoy this one.
