Review of Dancing On Hurt Feet

Very nice performance - certainly can't ignore it - I could imagine this coming on during news - as a kind of chaser, a palette-cleanser for the news junkie listener - it has the energy and immediacy of news but it's "not news." It's un-news. The flip side. It's not soft, though - it's other.
Good length - and - no talk-in, talk-out needed. Why not just put pure poetry in between our daily info-doses?
