and in a way my consciousness didn't expect.

I don't think anyone around me would have pegged me for being a fan of RR or The Band, though I do have friends that know that "Storyville" is one of my all-time favorite albums. I think when asked here on DU about "deserted island" albums, it's been on my list.

I guess it's just one of those deals where you don't realize what "you've got til it's gone."
