Some Firefly icons, guided by Rickie Lee Jones as part of my ongoing RLJ/Firefly collusion (and if you only knew, wouldn't you?). Take, share, comment, and keyword credit's appreciated. Listening to Rickie Lee Jones is even more appreciated. My heart to yours, enjoy:

Liner notes:
1. text courtesy of "Heart of Gold," the penultimate episode of Firefly
2. text courtesy of "War Stories," sideways
3. courtesy of Stephen King's Dark Tower series and Jake's words upon his second death: "go, then. There are other worlds than these."
4. Rickie Lee Jones, "Rodeo Girl"
5. Rickie Lee Jones, "Flying Cowboys"
6. Rickie Lee Jones, "Atlas' Marker"
7. Rickie Lee Jones, "On Saturday Afternoons in 1963"
8. Rickie Lee Jones, "Beat Angels"
Let me recommend to the novice the albums Flying Cowboys and Traffic From Paradise, or to the more willing to experiment, RLJ's eponymous album or the subsequent Pirates. For a good all-acoustic kind of best-of, no home should be without Naked Songs.
(ETA that I'm not wild about the typeface on Simon's icon, so if anyone's interested in that one specifically, I'd be willing to go in and tinker. As always, I take requests. In this case, RLJ/Firefly specific requests, but requests just the same. Any takers?)
This has been a Rickie Lee Jones/Firefly PSA in the hopes of spreading the love and the fannishness in both directions.
