"If you could read my mind"

and his best "Sundown"

Of course one of the biggest selling artists on 8-track was the one, the only, the superb NEIL DIAMOND.

"Sweet Caroline" is now a Cricket Anthem.

Thought that was a pirate radio station I listened to in my (much) younger years.

AAAHHHH Memories

Huddled under the bedclothes with the tranny on low so your parents couldn't hear.

Those pirate radio stations were awesome!

"the tranny on low"


Not sure if that would be discrimination these days, words no longer seem to have the innocent meanings of yesteryear.
I recall laying on the beach at Jaywick sands listening to the California summer sounds, seemed like endless sunny days.
Mind you Jaywick has been newsworthy for sadder reasons lately.

re: Gordon Lightfoot

The younger generation stream everything or have their playlists on tap.
They are missing the "thrill" of expectation of what record was going to play next on the radio. Whether it was going to be Elvis, the Turtles, the Byrds, the Rolling Stones or some awful tune that your mother liked!!

Ah, you mean Hernandos hideaway or Que sera. Or maybe even Cool water by Frankie Laine, not that I remember them of course.

re: Gordon Lightfoot

I was drawn to Gordon Lightfoot by the name, of course, but after I heard him, I became a real fan. Still have cassette tapes of all his works.

I'd like to call him Cousin Gordon, but never could find a family connection to Canada.
