It's snowing again. And all I can see are the empty spaces between each flake.
From a bootleg which, until very recently, was quite unknown to me. With a grateful tip of the hat to my siblings over at Art Decade.

Nice. I'm not sure I'd even heard these ones before, even though the whole bootleg is presumably on my iPod somewhere.
Ever heard of this band "Cargoe"? They were on the Ardent label as well and apparently their one album is supposed to be good. I'm trying to track it down.
"Cargoe", eh ? I need to check that one out.
This bootleg is beautifully produced. Lots of separation.
