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

The Summer of 1971: July-- Part 4

Continuing with those great songs from Summer, 40 years ago, as per Bob Stroud on his Rock and Roll Roots show on the Drive in Chicago, WDRV FM. Part 3 of his four parter is on August 7th.

DOUBLE BARREL-- DAVE AND ANSIL COLLINS-- Putting the reggae in your rock. Top Ten and coming out of nowhere.
MOONSHADOW-- CAT STEVENS-- New 45 out from an upcoming album called Teaser and the Firecat. (Definitely a new sound for us to enjoy. I was a big fan until he went all religious on us.)

WATCHING THE RIVER FLOW-- BOB DYLAN-- New 45. Wasn't available on any album except on his upcoming greatest hits.
NEVER ENDING SONG OF LOVE-- DELANEY & BONNIE--

ANGEL-- JIMI HENDRIX-- From Cry of Love, an album released in early 1971, a posthumous release as Hendrix had passed away in late 1970 so he never heard the final product. (Still mad that we had to lose him that early on and for that stupid reason.)
HIGH TIME WE WENT-- JOE COCKER-- (OK, another one who can't sing well, but makes it work with song selection.)

BITCH-- ROLLING STONES-- A horn thing from the Stones from Sticky Fingers.
GO DOWN GAMBLING-- BLOOD, SWEAT & TEARS-- Our money was on BS&T and their new album BS&T 4.

Still Have Nine to Go. --RoadDog
