prescription (for fragility?)

I don't know what it was exactly that he heard in my voice or what it was that I said last night. He had me go through my record collection and he gave me a list of things to play and not to play. At the end of our conversation I was instructed to immediately go to the turntable, remove the Joplin record and put on "Peter, Paul and Mommy" then Sly and the Family Stone. Then to call if I didn't feel better.
