Sweet Leaf of the North 🎵

Today’s Microblogvember prompt, selective, reminds me that I used to have an essentialist attitude about music; only certain music was pure enough to fit certain genres or even qualify as music. As I’ve gotten older, this attitude has softened a bit and I allow more music in, being also interested in the story of that music. All of this is to say that when I heard Iggy Pop introduce Sweet Leaf of the North by Mik Artistik’s Ego Trip on Morning Edition this week, I was completely charmed. Maybe you will be too.
