about this song
Like much of American music, the leitmotif of “KING” is sin and salvation. Johnny Cash, Tom Waits, Marty Robbins, you complete the list. Have it on my desk by three. This the earnest work of a student of that school of American music. King walks the wavering line of a mortal held to the impossible standards of a hypocritical world. There is someone or something just ou of sight in almost ever song, someone or something evil. The songs are sincere and evocative, defiant and a bit world-weary.
