So many to choose from. Perhaps my favorite.

A good one for sure! Will be my second time seeing him. Saw him do the complete Songs in the Key of Life album in Charlotte in 2015.

One of my favorites

I was reminded of another young talent from around that time. Does Alex Chilton sound like he's 16 here?

In the days of white crosses and black beauties, this song resonated. I hit a low of 116 lbs.

And screaming yellow jackets.

Love Canned Heat and think their "Going Up the country" set the tone for Woodstock

Here is a nice cover by The Blazers, a great Latin rock/blues band..

Yeah a bit of memory. Olney wasn't around long. I think he did the Nshville thing?

ETA googled. Yep, Nashville

Bruce Springsteen turns 75 years old on Monday, Sept. 23rd . . . Happy Birthday to The Boss.
I was one of his early fans long before his awesome album Born to Run was released. I saw him in concert in December 1975 at Georgetown University's McDonough Arena . .
The Wild, the Innocent & the E street shuffle was a massive favorite of mine.

Happy birthday Mr. Springsteen . . !

I liked all his early albums but Darkness at the Edge of Town was the one that sold me.

Darkness was a big fave of mine . . after Born to Run, IMO, it is his greatest.

Neat seeing David Olney mentioned here. I got to know him a little in the 1990s and after. He was a friend of my music journalist pal, the late Peter Cooper. Peter and I used to live together in Spartanburg, before he moved to Nashville as a writer, and David stayed with us once. Really cool guy.

On Friday, I went up to Asheville and saw the Dbs. So great. I don't go all the way back to the 80s with them, though I think a much hipper friend tried in those years to introduce me to their music. It kind of clicked for me much later. In any case, they put on a really excellent show.

I thought this was a great 1990's college radio song:


As I was searching for it on Spotify, I ran across this. It is awesome both lyrically and musically:
