That's right, a Kalhoun appreciation thread...

Great and underrated album.
"Virgin Falls" is my current fav...

I like it better than Bibleland. Big Grin

If You Want To is a rock anthem up there with the best of them. Tracking the Amorous Man is another favorite.

I dont like one better than the other..
but I think its more of a melodic thing- for sure.

my (today) fave is If You Want To..I dont thinkit coincidink that it showed up on Mutt.

Virgin falls- YES- though the subject matter is depressing (to me)

Gate of The World is a great tug too- and a better hope Cool

I love the combination of "Note To Anna" and "Father Explains". The whole album deals with loss on an entirely different level - loss of peace, of culture, of trust, of confidence in the norms of this world. Interesting stuff.

I think the whole "new world order" stuff was great, very topical at the time and today, and had lots of great thought provoking stuff. I like Father Explains and Amorous Man, mostly because they are the story of my life, er , no, cause they are great, I also like Kalhoun, the title song that is.

Yeah Terry talked about his 'political' influenced writings at one time. He being a moderate conservative, according to him, has been critical of not only the left but the right as well. He said he will often comment on whoever is in power at the time, but that shouldn't cause someone to think the other side is off the hook.

Christians can be critical of Christianity and the Church, without rejecting Christianity or the Church itself. Steve Taylor's "We Don't Need No Color Code" for example is a Christian saying there is no room for bigotry in Christianity. Its not a slam of Christianity as a whole, in fact it is a defense of true Christianity.

I think its a sign that a person is really searching for truth, when they can see the faults in their own cause/movement/group/beleif systems. The much more scary place to be is thinking your political/religious movement has it all right.

Cool! I started a Kalhoun appreciation thread awhile back (it's currently on page 5, under the title "It's just a sacred kinda thing"), but it derailed pretty quickly. People started talking about other albums and such. This board's full of ADD'ers, I tell ya.

From the liner notes about the song Kalhoun:

The new world order vs. the kingdom of God. The unholy work, yer little gawd and the tower of Babel all rolled up into a great big cowpie with a surprise center. It's a message in tongues with no interpretation. It's religious Fahrvergnugen. We all love to say it, but what the heck does it mean? It's every "ism" mankind has ever mindlessly embraced. Yeehaw! Somebody stamp me and pass the jello salad.

I wish all the albums had liner notes....

Anyone wanna whip some up? Go with the Steely Dan 'quick read notes' format found on Can't Buy A Thrill and Countdown To Ecstasy (and resurrected for Alive In America), for greatest visceral impact.

Where are these said "liner notes"? I have the CD sleeve in my hand and I cannot find liner notes...only lyrics.
Was there different pressings of the artwork, ect?

cb-
on the DA .com site page- under discography..


c and p

Daniel Amos
Kalhoun
1991 Brainstorm Artists, Intl. Records
Produced By Terry Taylor and da for Stunt Records


Big, Warm, Sweet, Interior Glowing
Affectionately referred to as The Big, Warm Swede in the studio. An expose on elitest, self-appointed visionaries or oracles of God. A call for accountability. A call for Ed to use brushes on his snare.

If You Want To
Two people choose love and change the world in a small way. Romeo and Juliet with a happy ending or Roy and Dale riding a stuffed "Trigger" into the sunset. Eternal resolve.

Kalhoun
The new world order vs. the kingdom of God. The unholy work, yer little gawd and the tower of Babel all rolled up into a great big cowpie with a surprise center. It's a message in tongues with no interpretation. It's religious Fahrvergnugen. We all love to say it, but what the heck does it mean? It's every "ism" mankind has ever mindlessly embraced. Yeehaw! Somebody stamp me and pass the jello salad.

I Will Return
Apocalyptic blues in the big city. The Mall All Over the World finally meets the wrecking ball. Christ returns. Metal cocoons sprout flying nuns. (the graves were opened?) Finis.
NOTE: No hallucinogens were taken during the writing of this song.

Tracking the Amorous Man
Story board pictures of divine vs. natural love. Inspired by Barry White and the Bible

Virgin Falls
"We're all sinners and need redemption and you can take that to the bank!", said Robert Blake, former Little Rascal.

Gloryhound
Nationalism as religion accompanied by drunken pedal-steel guitar riffs.

Prayer Wheel
The call to shame, sorrow, repentance and prayer on a national scale. The Tibetan practice of building prayer wheels provided some interesting images. "Hey kids, let's have a burger bash and build us a prayer wheel, then we'll get the high-priestess of American culture, Vanna White, to give it a great big spin."

Note to Anna
Everybody loves a mystery and a refreshing beverage. Was it murder? Suicide? A grunion-hunting accident? 'Tis a puzzlement, composed of human frailty and inability to ultimately save the soul. Only Christ can and will.

Father Explains
Taken from the "it's a bad place and I wouldn't want to live there" file. Songwriter imagines he's a young man trapped in the horrors of life, war and death in a third world country.
Ouch.

The Gate of the World
It's the global village and Christ is among the villagers. He's not hard to miss- He's the thirsty child and the homeless, hungry beggar. The grand finale.
