Sure blog-goofed and started this one on my Road Log yesterday. Two-finger typing is too slow to repeat it, but if you want to see it, go to http://roaddogsroadlog.blogspot.com.
I wrote about what I was doing back then.
Anyway, the songs that were around forty years ago. As usual, Bob Stroud's comments first, then mine in parentheses.
EVERYBODY'S TALKIN'-- NILSSON-- brand new recording included in the soundtrack of "Midnight Cowboy" (On the flipside was "Rainmaker" one of my all-time favorites, right up there with Christie's "Yellow River>' This song was played to death at popular NIU hangout Rick's out by the Lincoln Highway. If I heard it once there, I heard it a hundred times, probably six or seven times a night. Later, Chicago's own Cryan' Shames covered it.)
POLK SALAD ANNIE-- TONY JOE WHITE-- ("Some of you all never been down south too much.")
BOTH SIDES NOW-- JONI MITCHELL-- from the second album by who was regarded as a folk singer back then from an album called "Clouds."
I CAN'T GET NEXT TO YOU-- TEMPTATIONS-- On their way to having one of the biggest recordings of their career. (Give me that good old Motown sound. I don't know what was better, the music or the choreography?)
PUT A LITTLE LOVE IN YOUR HEART-- JACKIE DeSHANNON-- current hit
TIME MACHINE-- GRAND FUNK RAILROAD-- There's this new band out of Michigan and their debut album "On Time" is just a few weeks old at this point in time. Their first single release.
More Memories to Come. --RoadDog
Being an account of some things I'm interested in, what I'm doing, and reflections on my past, especially music.
Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.
