"Sister"

Laughter is a salutation, an open door, a call to "Come on in." I realized this today running in the midday sunshine and warmth, taking on the Lake Union Loop for the first time in three weeks. I was bearing down upon the suffering road, which in this case was the long parking lot that parallels Westlake Avenue North as it runs along the lake, when I heard a woman's laugh. My head automatically snapped to the direction from which it came. Our reaction to laughter is hardwired; it has to be.

This is another great cut, the last track, "Sister," off Antibalas' Who is This America? (2004):
