Inspired by Sons Of Thunder - Writing From The Fast Lane: A Motorcycle Anthology, compiled by Neil Bradford.
lyrics
I read a book about motorcycle stories
In my room, in my room, in my room
Without exception they are
Quite amazing journeys
I’ll finish it soon, I’ll finish soon,
I’ll finish it soon
A sense of freedom
And them defining countries
On their way, on their way, on their way
Making roads that didn’t exist before them
In their wake, in their wake, in their wake
They didn’t know where they
were going, when they started
Oh what a life, what a life, what a life
But I don’t drive, I can’t even afford glasses
So how will I learn to ride, learn to ride?
I get the sense that it was easier in the 50s
Before my time, before my time,
Before my time
Adventure grade insurance
cheaper in the 50s
I’ll bide my time, I’ll bide my time,
Bide my time
At a pension-able age I’ll get my glasses
Before I die, before I die, before I die
I’ll learn to ride a motorcycle in my 60s
Before I drive, before I drive, before I drive
Before I drive, before I drive, before I drive

The Bookshop Band write songs inspired by books and play them in bookshops. They started as a collaboration between a group
of musicians in Bath and their local independent bookshop, Mr B's Emporium. Now they are about to go on tour, sponsored by Vintage Books and Independent Booksellers Week, around other bookshops and lit fests. Catch them if you can. Details at www.thebookshopband.co.uk...more
British folk musician Tom Nash built these delicate and moving songs around a broken harmonium, allowing its limitations to open up worlds. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 12, 2021
Mostly recorded during late nights, hence the title, this EP is full of whispery synthpop that is both beguiling and mysterious. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 12, 2022
