My Pryor Year: A 333 Soul Anthology

About the Book

"I lived in Chicago a few years ago. I don't know if you've ever bought White Castle burgers and brought them home in your car but the smell stays in the car for days even weeks. I've always tried to find out what it is about them that stays. I never have, but I know that same ingredient must be in Velvet Freeze wonder dogs. I got a bag of six of them four days ago and I think I'm going to have to sell my car."

"Some places have Norwegian Bachelor Farmers we had Finnish Widower Miners. These guys worked underground wore no earplugs when they were blasting, so they were pretty hard of hearing. By the time it got to Martin and Mike in the back, they got only about three or four drops each. So, I got up to do the post-communion blessing, and Martin turns to Mike and says real loud, echoing throughout the church, "He really gypped us on wine today, didn't he?"

"You know my very first memory of music was being nestled in my mothers lap ah, as she played piano and I was so young I don't know how old I was, but I finally realized that she was creating this music. I was hearing this beautiful music flowing over me and I was just able to sort of peak up over the keyboard and able to associate it you know, with the motion of her hands."
