I'm not saying I will give Barlow a pass, but since my first awareness of him in the '80s was as one of the Grateful Dead's lyricists - to me he is a psychedelic poet. TBH I prefer Robert Hunter's GD lyrical work, but I see their drawing upon the world's wisdom traditions as a feature, not a bug, and in line with bardic practice since time immemorial. I'd suggest "Throwing Stones" or "Estimated Prophet" as good places to get JPB's more fully digested take on judging others. https://www.dead.net/lyricsby/John%20Barlow |
