Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.

Where Were You September 4, 1971?-- Part 4

Going into the last hour of Bob Stroud's trip back 40 years to the end of Summer 1971.

DO YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN-- LEE MICHAELS--
LIAR-- THREE DOG NIGHT-- One of my two Marine Corps songs.

'TIL I DIE-- BEACH BOYS-- I don't remember this one.
SO FAR AWAY-- CAROLE KING-- From that great Tapestry album.

THE NIGHT THEY DROVE OLD DIXIE DOWN-- JOAN BAEZ-- Hard being a rebel back then. And it still is. Just try flying a Confederate flag these days. Not sure if I like her version or that of the Band better.
MAGGIE MAE-- ROD STEWART-- Always reminds me of the Sig Ep house at the University of Georgia.

IF YOU REALLY LOVE ME-- STEVIE WONDER--
TAKE ME HOME, COUNTRY ROADS-- JOHN DENVER-- The other one of my two Marine Corps songs. Get me out of here!! Actually, my time in the Corps was quite the learning experience in alien life.

ROLL ON-- NEW COLONY SIX-- the last hit for the local Chicago boys.
SMILING FACES (SOMETIMES)-- UNDISPUTED TRUTH-- One hit-wonders

AIN'T NO SUNSHINE-- BILL WITHERS

UNCLE ALBERT/ADMIRAL HALSEY-- PAUL McCARTNEY-- The number one song in Chicago.

Thanks, Bob, for This Great trip Back Into My Past. --RoadDog


UNIVERSAL TRUTH: Is it just me or do high school students get dumber and dumber every year?
