Quarter Of A Man - David Lindley

There's such a lethargic energy here as he bios this poor fellow, "He only saves a quarter, he's a quarter of a man". Lindley's guitar, as sparse and exposed as it is, brings a full band of emotion and the strategic drums, reggae groove and his lilting voice make this an engaging tale. In the end there's nothing especially revelatory about this quarter of a man, but you just feel sort of sorry. You almost forget how greasy his hair is.
