Known by Heart | Sleepless Chicago Blues – Four in the Morning for the Longest Hour Vol.51

The clock says four. It's said that before. Nothing moves but the hands, and even those seem tired. That's Gray Smoke Blues. Four in the morning belongs to no one — too late to call it night, too early to call it day. It's the hour of counting cracks in the ceiling, of the amber settling low in the glass, of hands on a clock that refuse to hurry. Thirteen blues tracks for the men still awake when the rest of the city sleeps, waiting for the black to finally turn grey. For the men who know that hour by heart — not because they chose it, but because it never let them go. Who sit through it the same way every time, and call it nothing new. 00:00 The Hour Turns Over 03:29 Awake in the Dark 08:27 Counting Cracks Again 12:05 The Amber Settles 16:25 The Hands Won't Move 19:56 Nothing Left to Silence 24:48 The Second Hand Drags 28:22 Half Past Four Now 32:03 The Body Won't Rest 37:03 Pouring at This Hour 40:15 Grey at the Window 43:55 The Black Goes Blue 47:51 Morning Finds Me Up New sessions, regularly. #ChicagoBlues #FourInTheMorningBlues #SlowChicagoBlues
