07/11/05 12 CommentsDancing by the Jukebox
The jukebox epitomizes the experience Clay creates. It’s a closet of treasures, the old and the new, songs and moves and feelings he captures and emblazons with his own style and passion. What’s old is new again.
Clay, in so many ways, is an old spirit in a brand new body. He has a sense for what we all want and need to hear, to see, to feel, to experience, to remember. He also has a sense for what pieces of yesterday need to be relived, what places are the sanctity for today, and what tangents tomorrow will bring. Like a jukebox with its old tunes, he can make any song fit the mood, stir a long-lost emotion with a note that takes sad song to a deeper and more profound cavern; he can wail and exhort joy from the simplest happy refrain. He is the true definition of a Renaissance Man.
What’s old is new again. But his wisdom translates to another kind of brilliance. It’s a knowledge of presence. Of timing. Of rhythm. He jokes about not being able to dance. You don’t have to dance to have the rhythm of life.
Clay dances with his voice. He lives by his rhythm. He plays from the jukebox in his own closet of treasures.
Lucky for us, it’s a very big closet. Lucky for us, the music plays on and on. Lucky for us, he dances. He really dances.
