Corncob Pipe

Singer/songwriter Joe Kaplow lives in a four-acre mansion in the hills of Santa Cruz. Of course, he shares the space with a group of hippies, some rats, and some very dilapidated floors and walls... but it does have a swimming pool. For Kaplow, becoming a full-time musician - and adopting the lifestyle that often accompanies it - didn’t happen by accident. Having moved from farm life and family in New Jersey to the rich Santa Cruz music community, Kaplow has often found himself living paycheck to paycheck as he departs on three-month U.S. solo tours, records music in various bedrooms of the house where he lives, rehearses with his new band and writes constantly, dedicating himself fully and lovingly to the craft of songwriting. Kaplow’s debut album Time Spent In Between is simultaneously grounded and exploratory; the music is equal parts intimate and expansive. With raw instrumentation and earthy vocal melodies, Time Spent In Between is rich with folk songwriting brilliance.

I think I’ll make a corn cob pipe
Something I’ve wanted to do
I ain’t that much of a smoker anymore
But still, it’d be kinda cool

Like a farmer from the past
Who’s life is in the land
Following his horse drawn plough
Corn cob pipe in hand

I found the bowl for my corncob pipe
Clinging to a stalk
The field of maiz grew so tall
It cast shadows were I walked

I picked off all the kernels
Tossed them in a stream
And the water rippled back to me
From a very distant dream

A change comes in September
Brings work to the farm
So pile some wood outside the door
Stack hay up in the barn

The waves are getting bigger
Leaves are turning red
Days are getting shorter
Changes in my bed

I think I’ll make a corn cob pipe
Something I’ve wanted to do
I ain’t that much of a smoker anymore
