Not to say that crowd didn't exist in the States, but they sure weren't in Reno!<br /><br />La Belette Rouge~ Thank you. After I posted it I realized I very much described the little neighbor girl who came into my life right after the death of my mother. I honestly did not see that while I worked on the poem!<br /><br />The Bug~ Delighted you would love that. I'm late this evening in reading others, but will be sure to stop at your blog. :)<br /><br />Argent~ Aw, thanks. <br />I wonder how many people are like me and actually have to think of the spelling of "rhythm" as they write it.....for me it's possibly the trickiest word in the English language!Lydiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11135393270656573516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4039445774186145767.post-8667600685424848842010-08-09T10:24:38.742-07:002010-08-09T10:24:38.742-07:00Another compact gem!

I mean yes, Magic Bus is a great track, as is Won't Get Fooled Again and My Generation (i'll even allow you "Who Are You" as a good one)<br /><br />But my memory of the 70s is lots of "mods" - ie teenagers in long coats riding Vespa motorbikes with The Who written on the back - this memory is rather tainted by the really, and i mean really, odd lyrics to "substitute" and the voyage to Trip-out City that is the film "Tommy" - exactly how "hard" (ie tough) were those guys on their vespas looking back at those lyrics???Don't Feed The Pixieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05380146661526476947noreply@blogger.com
