Thanks for including me in your intro... it really is wild to imagine that we might have been at one or more of the same gigs, having no idea that we would know one another in forty years! Yeah... three stations... you probably got the same ones I got : WFBG in Altoona, WJAC in Johnstown, And maybe one or more from State College or Williamsport.

and yeah, things have really changed... like others here,
i bought my first house around that time... for 7 thousand dollars! fully furnished!

I normally like to analyze songs, but in this case I don't want to break the spell it cast... its fun to let the magic of your song writing take me backto time when my wife was still my girlfriend and life was a time of growing up together.

Thanks for the memory.
i really needed that today.


Pat - I am really pleased that you dropped by for this! Yes, it has been great to see how so many around the world get some memories from the images from our neck of the woods... my wife was there, too, in the glow of those blacklights... (she said to say "hi"...)

and The Ventures (everyone played
their tunes or rightly, tried to...)
The Beach Boys, The 4 Seasons
and naturally all the superb folk
singers or -groups like PP&M, Simon
and Garfunkel etc. etc. Later it turned
to Four Freshmen, Bacharach and groups
like The Johnny Mann Singers, Hi-Lo:s
and Singers Unlimited etc etc.

....so, maybe our worlds really weren´t
so different after all ??

I love this tune of yours and think
it must be one of your absolute best !

Cheers
Dani
