Bryan

Everything was beautiful and nothing hurt.

In my mind, James Earl Jones is Darth Vader reading the Bible. Growing up, my friend (and the drummer in my band) used to borrow his mom’s van for practice. In it, she had the unabridged Bible on tape, as read by JEJ. I couldn’t separate Vader from the experience of listening. What an icon. RIP.
