More hippie music...
We heard this on the RTB* leg o' Monday's mini-road trip. We broke into the biggest o' big-ass grins when the tune came on, recalling as it did road trips o' days past, which is to say during Former Happy Days. And we sang along, too, seein' as how we know all the words.
About my last, this: We used to be fond o' sayin' all the best music eventually makes it into the car and stays there. That statement referred to CDs and I said it a lot before I got XM/Sirius. These days? Not so much... not at all, even. I don't have a single CD in The Tart, not one. It's all XM, all the time. That's not a BAD thing, Gentle Reader.
Second observation: I find that I know all the words to a very large number of songs quite amazing and somewhat disturbing. How is it that I can recall the lyrics to some obscure song from the 1970s and NOT remember important things, like my grand-children's birthdays? That's very troubling.

as my dad would say "Damn hippies" BTW, what is Bogart up to?
ReplyDeletePhil, Msgt USAF RET
I think Bogart is still at room temperature. ;-)
DeleteI don't just not know the words, I frequently can't make out what the words are!
ReplyDeleteI have that same problem with some pop songs. And nearly ALL opera!
DeleteI think--hell, I know I have one of their albums. (vinyl) -Nope, I've got THREE!--their debut album, the Panama Red Album and the Powerglide album. (It was a stage I was going thru. :) )
ReplyDeleteI have the first two... my phase didn't last as long as yours. ;-)
