I had so much fun writing my last music related dream post that I thought I would share this recent music dream I had over the weekend.
Unlike the last dream about Bono that was quite funny, this is a much more serious dream about Johnny Cash
I dreamed that I discovered a lost Johnny Cash album. One that he had never been released. It was on reel to reel tape and recorded back in the late 60's. The album featured a series of dark haunting songs with minimal band arrangements. All the songs had Cash singing very dark and cryptic lyrics. Each song was strung together by strange musical and sound montages as each song faded out or ended these strange trippy sound montages would fade in and lead into the next song before fading out again.
The best way to describe these interinking montages would be to think of the Revolution # 9 from the Beatles White album.
The montages where a mixture of music, sound effects and Cash reading cryptic verse ala' Jim Morrison. At the end of one of these montages Cash yelled out the words:
"MY SPIRIT" !
There was a huge reverb on this voice and the sound was so loud that it made the reel to reel player and the house shake.
Then I woke up.
Got any music related dreams that you would like to share with me?
