Most readers of There Stands the Glass pick up on the fact that I often go on musical binges that last between two days and two weeks. It's not uncommon for me to become fully immersed in a specific artist or style. I can lose myself in old Dave Holland albums, the Skip James catalog, American Beauty, seminal thrash or Erik Satie. I love these things so intensely that I inevitably burn myself out on each temporary obsession. One of the few things I'll never tire of is the music made in Memphis from 1954-74. Duck Dunn, of course, played a pivotal role in the creation of the timeless sound. (Get a load of this.) Dunn died two days ago.
