A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

"Satan is a musician and in heaven he led worship before being cast down. He came on earth, corrupted gospel music diverting praise and worship from God to himself."

Fiction recommendation: "Kitchens of the Great Midwest" by J. Ryan Stradal. My parents handed me this book so I thought it might be corny, but its class consciousness sneaks up on you. At first you think it's going to be a family saga, then it turns out to be a class saga. It's also for all of us who wondered if we were snobs for liking weird music or because we're "supertasters" or whatever.
