#letthisriverflow — Public Fediverse posts

#ThursdayFiveList is splitting up with different hashtags for the same theme. #LetThisRiverFlow (as proposed by Neurothing) and #LetTheRiversFlow, almost as if the stream of posts is a river itself, seeking the path of least resistance and splitting up, meandering through the landscape.

This week’s #ThursdayFiveList theme is #LetTheRiversFlow. Lots of great records to choose from - these are only some of my favorites:

Jerry Butler: Moon River (1961)
