The City of Seven Hills tells the story of a man who had a story to tell and used the only tools he had available to tell it: “a piano, a broken tape recorder, and the city of Cincinnati”. There is a moment in Cincinnati. Keeling plays his feelings over them. Listen to bus rides, college students, news broadcasts, and feel what Keeling feels. This tape is empathy at its finest.
The man is making the digital download of the album available for free. But if you feel something the way I did, if some love for civilization and appreciation for life has spawned in your heart, I recommend you make a donation.
Be gentle.
