New Albany is a state of mind … but whose? Since 2004, we’ve been observing the contemporary scene in this slowly awakening old river town. If it’s true that a pre-digital stopped clock is right twice a day, when will New Albany learn to tell time?

Rockpile: "Teacher Teacher."
This song used to come off as tongue-in-cheek. These days, with public education under daily Danielsist siege, it veers toward the poignant, and don't hold your breath waiting for it to be added to the Clere Channel playlist.
The band is Rockpile, from the UK. It had just one album, "Seconds of Pleasure", before disbanding, but the music has held up quite well three decades later; not so much a sense of community. We probably need to go to Egypt for that.
