Comment:

On the trail of a crazed killer. He started out as many of us do, hanging out in bars and falling in love. as the albums progressed the bars got seedier and you could tell he was heading in the wrong direction. Somewhere around Foreign Affairs things started to go wrong. Maybe it was that chance meeting with Bette Midler in I Never Talk to Strangers. I believe the first killing came in Potter's Field but we will never be able to prove that one. I know by Blue Valentine woman started disappearing. Three albums go by without any killings (well there was that chihuahua from Swordfishtrombone)but with Rain Dogs he struck again. By Bone Machine it's in his blood and there is no going back. It is here that he begins his Jesus song cycle. Coincidence? The killings come regularly now. Suddenly at Real Gone they multiply. He's getting careless or does he want to get caught. Orphans is a frenzy. I can sense him up ahead. It is only a matter of time now...
