    Wow I had no idea she had any JW in her background. I listened to her in the late 1970's when I was homeless after mom refused blood and some California hippys took me in. They were musicians and introduced me to a whole new world.

    Back then her music was a bit dark as I vaguely recall, now I know where that came from. Does anyone have access to her lyrics from the 70's?

    Patti smith is awesome. I had NO IDEA she was raised a JW. Her father is an idiot.

    The album kicks off with a liberal rewrite of Van Morrison’s "Gloria," where Smith sings:

    Jesus died for somebody's sins but not mine
    meltin' in a pot of thieves
    wild card up my sleeve
    thick heart of stone
    my sins my own
    they belong to me, me
