It’s a simple yet sublime pleasure, and just thinking about it can make you feel a little calmer, a little more content. Imagine: You bring out one of the good rocks glasses (or your favorite mug or a special occasion tea cup) and pour a couple fingers of amber liquid (or something dark and strong or just some whole milk). You drop the needle on the jazz platter (or pull up a blues album on your mp3 player or dig out that mixtape from college). Ensconcing yourself in the coziest seat in the house, you crack the spine on a classic (or find your place in that sci-fi paperback or pull up a biography on your e-book reader). And then, you go away for a while. Ah, bliss.<\/p>\n

Some of you may have seen Miss Shevaughn and Yuma Wray<\/a> at Couch by Couch West, where they came to us live (if somewhat delayed) from their wedding reception<\/a>. They did five songs, including three – Drifter’s Compass<\/i>, Coyote<\/i> and Bleed Me<\/i> – from their most recent record, Lean Into The Wind<\/i>. <\/p>\n

They are all great tunes, but I’m especially fond of Drifter’s Compass<\/i>, because I think it’s the kind of song you’d put on at either the beginning or the end of a long trip, as encouragement, or as solace:<\/p>\n
