Not the most popular version of this song, but this version is very... earnest.  I guess it should be, since John Denver wrote the song.  And Mama Cass's harmonization in the chorus is sublime.

I'm feeling nostalgic today.

I miss 1980 with The Clash and Mikey Dread at the controls.

RIP Joe - it's been more than 20 years now.

RIP Mikey - it's been more than 15 years now.

Storm Thorgerson's death put this documentary in jeopardy of remaining incomplete...

 

After years of waiting, it was released on a limited theater run in 2023. The digital/BluRay release was last week! 

 

I highly recommend it for any fan of The Floyd!!! 

 

Shine on 💔

Herbie Flowers, bassist extraordinaire, who created the iconic bass line for Walk on the Wild Side, has died, aged 86.

I bought a two-pack of CDs on Amazon and they came in today:  Bob Seger's Night Moves along with Stranger in Town.  Bob Seger fits in a wonderful niche of rock and roll, storytelling, and country-western (or maybe honky-tonk?) that very few artists do.  I wouldn't call him his own genre or anything, but his music just kind of stimulates a spot in my brain like few other artists.

This is one of those that I think is kind of honky-tonk sounding:

We've Got Tonight from Stranger in Town was the theme for my senior prom.  I always that that was a terrible choice as it's a song about a one night stand but maybe that's the point of a senior prom since so many people are moving on to other things.

I am on the edges. I saw them 11 or 12 times starting 1976. I saw the Garcia band once and liked that concert a lot. I have never seen another band as often. Still play the albums.

I haven’t even really figured it out on Insta yet, but I will try.

Some seasonal music.  This album seems very autumnal to me, and since it got down into the 30s overnight here in Texas, I think it's time for autumn.

When I close my eyes and open my ears real wide I swear that I am listening to King Crimson.  Excellent !!
