Silver Jews New Orleans

Today I’m obsessed with Indie Rock rooted in Folk and similar stuff from the Nineties and early 2000s. How can we not remember the Silver Jews, led by Berman, who had great writing skills and was a decent singer? I’m not sure what illness he had, but he couldn’t and didn’t want to perform live. Luckily for him, his college friends helped him significantly to maintain a decent underground career—Pavement’s Malkmus and Nastanovich, and his friend Yo La Tengo’s McNew, even though the latter never participated in any of his albums. The one tour in 2006 speaks volumes about Berman's struggles with being in public.

Cover Silver Jews - Starlite Walker
Silver Jews – Starlite Walker
Album - 24 october 1994

It's not a rainy afternoon, nor a starry night, and it's not a sad day either. It's just a day like any other. I'm neither melancholic nor cheerful. I'm like someone who often feels like a person who loves music, football, cinema, good food, and beautiful girls (when I was young). I started listening to music at the age of 14, it was 1964. There were the Rolling Stones, the Kinks, Them, but above all, there was Bob Dylan followed by Neil Young. After that, many others came. My memories are of Nirvana, Alice in Chains, Satcell, and many more. Recently, I've been listening to a lot of female artists, considering that today's bands often have a woman as the lead singer. However, I often return to bands like Sparklehorse, Califone, Dirty Three, Duster, and Silver Jews. Yes, the Silver Jews of David Berman, who took his own life in August 2019. My favorite album is Starlite Walker. I don't know why. Maybe because when I listen to it, strangely, I see the light in the sky dimming. Just a coincidence? Who knows!! more
