Hollow Bones is one of my favorite Wu-Tang Clan songs, for which I flipped an old Ghost Rider sketch from my sketchbook. Enjoy...
Hollow Bones 11x17 print $25 (includes domestic shipping)
I didn't buy Wu-tang Clan's third group album The W when it came out in 2000, but my dude Corance had it, I think. When I heard Hollow Bones, I immediately loved it. Sometimes, late Wu-Tang stuff feels strained, but RZA's sample on Hollow Bones grabbed me before I could consciously decide about it, and all the Raekwon, Deck, and Ghost all ride it like the golden era giants they are. That started a resurgence of my personal appreciation of Wu-Tang that is pretty long-suffering, persisting to this day.
Anyways, there's no Ghost Rider reference on this song, but the song title (pulled from this deliciously painful sample of Syl Johnson's Is It Because I'm Black) made me think of Marvel's Spirit of Vengeance, so I figured I'd use that sketch...
Hope you like it.
Later.
