FREE RIDE-- EDGAR WINTER GROUP-- This song always reminds me of driving out to Galena from Dekalb, Illinois, after a wedding August 25, 1973. We must have heard it three or four times on different stations. Driving that great old '73 Ford Pinto.
After what seemed to forever, we got to the Palace Motel and found a note taped to the office door for the "Honeymoon Couple." They were closed, but we were to go to room #3 where the door was unlocked. Guess we must have really been married."
SPACE RACE-- BILLY PRESTON-- Imagine playing keyboards for a group like the Beatles. I'd even learn how to play to do that.
D'YER MAKER-- LED ZEPPELIN-- Now, that was some h-e-a-v-y stuff.
JUST YOU 'N ME-- CHICAGO-- So s-m-o-o-t-h.
ANGIE-- ROLLING STONES-- Not your typical Stones kind of a song.
RUBBER BULLETS-- 10CC--
PHOTOGRAPH-- RINGO STARR-- the #1 song in Chicago November 21, 1973. Who says Ringo can't sing?
Good Stuff, Maynard!! --RoadDog
FUNNY SIGNS-- Outside a car exhaust repair shop: "No appointment necessary. We hear you coming."
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.
