Apr 3, 10:21am hearsay

Wild Weekend Vol. 22

Jun 6, 2010, 2:46pm For The Sake Of The Song
Wild Weekend Vol. 22 Back right at the end of another Wild Weekend , after a week-long hiatus caused both by a short trip abroad and some quite irritating computer problems. My router had re-programmed itself all on its own for some reason, and it took a while to get it to function again. But finally, here´s edition # 22, and once more the shuffle function of my iPod decided what goodies you´re going to enjoy. I know it's all been done before, and it's all been written in the book, but let´s carry on regardless, before the waters of oblivion come rushing [...]

The singer spends the rest of the number assuring us, her lover, that she's all grown up. We've treated her shamefully and that's caused her to grow up. Perversely, she argues that this means she's ready

I celebrated my birthday this past weekend. The highlight was at a barbecue when I was asked - nay, urged - to recount the plot of the film Soylent Green (1973) to several bystanders who were unfamiliar with it. Believe me, people, I live for moments like that. I got some great books and CDs, including some referred to in this post about the new Stax Profiles series . In fact, I got the three I mentioned: Otis Redding , Carla Thomas and [...]
