Comment:

I finally got around to making this one. I feel like I should be saying something about Solomon, but I'm very tired. So I'll just sum it up with "Wow, this man is fucking incredible." I left off his covers of "Maggie's Farm" and "Proud Mary" despite them being two of his more well-known songs, because...well, I don't know why. I just did. And for a bit of Solomon trivia, does anyone know who wrote the title? Or, rather, the song from which the title is taken. I'll post it later this evening.

Thanks for the comments, everyone. For what it's worth, Tom Waits wrote "Diamond in Your Mind", from which the title is taken. And of course I'd be willing to trade.
