Ain’t it great when that perfect tune comes around on your device?
It could be something that reminds you of the best moment in your life https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k33x_Efa5Lk.
Or it could be the saddest song ever, sung here by my pal, Ann Arbor’s own Bill Kirchen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eb_Bz4SssxM.
That was December 10, 1971, at Crisler Arena, packed for the John Sinclair Freedom Rally. Yes, he was sprung later that same month. Bill was playing lead guitar for Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen, who stole the show on a bill that included Bob Seger, Phil Ochs, Stevie Wonder and John & Yoko. Was there ever a band that was more fun? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c8TeHA4UL_8.
Music like that keeps me happy. My life is good ‘cause I’ve got stuff that works https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lgCyXw2EWuA.
And I’m old now, but I don’t mind https://wordpress.com/post/theviewfromharbal.com/697. Plus my much missed friend John Prine told me it’s going to be alright https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l0EiV423j0M.
