Dustin And The Furniture - Aimless Turtle

Dustin And The Furniture is Dustin Goldklang. The furniture...His instruments? All of his music can be found on the previously featured CLLCT for free, with the exception of his first album Aimless Turtle. Never fear, I have it here. I was able to get my hands on one of the last copies a couple of years ago after seeing him live. Dustin (amongst other acts, but he was the one I was most impressed by) was my first "house show". A great experience that everyone needs to try. Someone puts together a bunch of acts that practically live on the road, to play in their apartment. Food is available, everyone is welcome. A very warm experience full of positive energy, perfect for folk acts such as this guy. Expect handclapping and sing-alongs. :)

"The Bagpipe Who Didn't Say No" is a musical Shel Silverstein adaptation, like Johnny Cash's "A Boy Named Sue". I include this as a stand-out track along with "I'm Making A Fashion Statement" and "Put Your Glasses On". There's just something about that song that feels like I'm dreaming when I listen to the lyrics.
