QUICK RIFFS: Ray Wylie Hubbard


It's always nice to see songwriters get weirder with age. Too much of the American populace melts into suburbia never to be relevant again.

I literally know nothing of Mr. Hubbard and his storied discography. But I do know a song like "Opium" drips with experience, pain, and grace: "It's such an elegant decay/such an elegant decay."
