Proto-spring came to Brooklyn in a very real way over the weekend: those first days going out in only a tee-shirt because I can, sleeping with the bedside window open. Of course, it's supposed get cold again in a few days, but this song -- notable, I just realized after a good year or so of listens, for its complete lack of drums -- will remain.
