Brownie Points

Whether contemplating his girlfriend’s pregnancy or fantasizing about escaping on the road, Jackson Browne pretty much embodied the zeitgeist of the 70s: wanting to find spiritual fulfillment, yet not willing to quite give up the creature comforts brought about by America’s economic perch sustained by global military domination. Ah, life as the guilty conscience of America can be tough. Good thing he knew how to rock out, as this week’s wog surely demonstrates: to balance the agony of The Fuse or Rock Me on the Water we have the kick-out-the-jams Redneck Friend and The Road and the Sky. You don’t have to walk on water, just get your sneakers out on the roadside and wog. The roadmap is at Pogwogging.com.
