Is it a coincidence that I bought The Almighty Defenders album on Halloween and now it’s haunting me?

The Almighty Defenders – Cone Of Light from The Pool Parties on Vimeo.
The Almighty Defenders strike me as a rockabilly gospel band. They dress in gospel choir robes on stage and have an eclectic Elvis, meets bar band, meets Motown sound. I discovered them while listening to XMU. Each time they played Cone of Light, I found myself looking down at the satellite receiver to catch the name of the artist and track. I did this enough times that it finally stuck. I came home, looked them up on iTunes and knew I would not be satisfied until I owned this entire album and could play it whenever and wherever I wanted.

These days there is a plethora of books, training programs and classes all designed and marketed to help you “feel good”. Yet you can feel good anytime you choose, with or without training. 
Okay, maybe this only applies if you’re over 40 but the truth is, when I hear funk and soul from the 70’s I feel like a superhero. 
If so, you’ll probably like the Stevie Wonder channel I created on Pandora.com. 
Been a long day…
