LOVE GROWS WHERE MY ROSEMARY GOES-- EDISON LIGHTHOUSE-- Their one hit in the U.S.
INSTANT KARMA-- JOHN LENNON-- (And we all shine on.)
COME AND GET IT-- BADFINGER-- Sure sounds like the Beatles. Paul wrote it and produced it. Their first hit (I sure thought it was the Beatles singing. I also at first thought the Bee Gees were the Beatles back in the 60s.)
BRIDGE OVER TROUBLED WATER-- SIMON AND GARFUNKEL-- Their legendary classic song out on album and 45. (This one always reminds me of the political unrest of the Vietnam War.)
AMERICAN WOMAN-- GUESS WHO-- The "A" side of their two-sided hit. (Actually with the intro to this one and the two songs on the flipside "No Sugar Tonight/New Mother Nature" it was like getting an EP with four songs.)
VEHICLE-- IDES OF MARCH-- Here's that band from Berwyn (Illinois).
HOUSE OF THE RISING SUN-- FRIGID PINK-- Six years after most of us had heard the song done up by the Animals, it was back around again, this time by a Detroit band. (And done a WHOLE lot differently.)
LET IT BE-- BEATLES--The number 1 song in Chicago 42 years ago.
Was That a Canadian Slam Against the U.S.? --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.
