    LYRICS
    You're leaning into the mirror
    Stepping out and the sidewalks bloom
    Shoeless mosses and heather
    Feels like your Gaynor Mindens do
    Guilty of guilt, and sick of the sickness
    Heart like a jury trying to convict us
    But your Midtown blouses are covered in sequins
    For God's sake, you can dance it out with your
    Smoky sunrise Geranium eyes
    Remember, we never forget how to fly
    Smoky sunrise
    Smoky sunrise in your eyes
    And I wouldn't blame you
    Your mother needs a call or a calling out
    And she can't forgive you
    But you've been learning to forgive yourself
    Guilty of guilt, and sick of the sickness
    Heart like a jury trying to convict us
    But your Midtown blouses are covered in sequins
    For God's sake, you can dance it out with your
    Smoky sunrise Geranium eyes
    Remember, we never forget how to fly
    Smoky sunrise
    Smoky sunrise in your eyes
    In his sophomore album, Public Life, Joshua Lee Turner weighs his life as a touring musician against a newfound appreciation for time spent at home. Turner embraces imperfection and limitation, choosing to record the album almost entirely to 4-track cassette and producing, mixing, and filming it in his apartment. With stripped-down arrangements, intimate lyrics, and virtuosic guitar playing, Public Life blends 1970s sounds with 2020 contemplations of home, friendship, work, and social media.

      Mike Rosenblat well, in terms of guitars I know he owns and has used (on this album and the last) a D’Angelico Deluxe Atlantic, a Mexican built Fender Telecaster (seen here), a 1969 Martin D-12-35 (used for Public Life), a rebuilt 1961 Harmony H162 ("Morris", used for 319), a 1965 Gibson B-45-12, a Gitane D-500, a Cordoba C10 (used in Belle and Like Lightning, among others), and a Martin 000-28H (also used for Like Lightning, along with many other originals and covers), among others that I’m sure I’m missing. He also is recording the album almost completely on 4-track cassette, I'm not sure what mics he uses.
      Edit: some of this info might be wrong, and I don’t know the model of any of his other instruments and I could be missing some guitars, I’m just going off what I can remember. This is also the stuff he's used for any videos, he hasn't used all of them for this album

    I listen to many different talented artists on UA-cam doing covers of great songs, and I really enjoy them. But then when I hear their own songs I’m always mildly disappointed that the songs never reach the level of greatness of song’s written by the great musicians of the past. Your songs, however, are truly works which add to and exceed the greatest songs ever written.

I’m in my late 50’s and unless it’s Gospel singers, there isn’t many younger singers I enjoy listening to... thanks for Sharing) on line.
