“Is Simplicity Best…”

“…Or Simply The Easiest?”

DEPECHE MODE

((From The Song JUDAS (1993)))

SongsOfFaithAndDevotionRemastered (via Wikipedia)

JUDAS Is Just A Personal Favorite Jam From DEPECHE MODE That Just Happened To Pop-On During My Morning Walk! It’s Not The Best Song On The Album, SONGS OF FAITH AND DEVOTION, But There Truly Isn’t A Bad Song On The Entire Album. Period. πŸ˜€

“DAMMIT.”: Again :(

Yeah.

I Had Another Of Those Moments.

Except, This One Is Of A Different Nature.

Same Result, Though.

DAMMIT.”

Why?!

Well…

…I Decided To Go For A Walk.

It’s The First Time I’ve Attempted A Lengthy Walk-About Since My Latest Medical Scare.

It Started-Off Well Enough.

I Was Moving.

My Left Leg Was A Bit Gimpy, But It Was Functioning.

So I Pressed-On.

I Was Jamming To Some Excellent Tunage.

It’s Pretty Brisk Outside, But It Felt Wonderful To Be Out-&-About.

And THEN…

…”DAMMIT.”

The Bottom Kinda Fell Out Of The Whole Experience.

My Left Leg Gave-Out…

AGAIN.

😦

I Damn Near Fell Flat On My Face.

Thank Jeebus I Wasn’t Around A Bundle Of People, Or I Would Have Felt A Tinge Of Embarrassment.

There Was NOTHING Funny About It.

I Was About 6-Blocks From My Home.

😦

So, I Had To Drag My Leg Back To The House.

It Was NOT Fun.

DAMMIT.”

DAMMIT.”

DAMMIT.”

Granted, I Could Have Called For A Ride Back To My Place.

But, I Didn’t.

I Decided To Fight My Body And Make A Go Of It.

And I DID Make It Home.

I Was Exhausted.

Worn To A Frazzle.

But I DID Make It.

And Now, Here I Am Talking To Y’all.

DAMMITI Tell You.

DAMMITIndeed.

😦

Now, I’m Unsure Of What To Do.

I Have A Lot I Want To Accomplish, But Don’t Have Much Energy Left In Ye Ole Tank.

So, I Do Believe It’s Time For A Rest.

I Feel Like That’s All I’ve Been Doing, Though.

Resting Gets Pretty Frickin’ Frackin’ BORING.

I Don’t Really Get Bored That Often.

I Can Generally Find Something To Do.

I’m Pretty Resourceful.

Just Not Today.

Not. At. All.

That’s Probably Why I’m Posting This.

I Needed To Flex The Ole Chops AND Find Something Constructive To Do.

I Figure This Counts.

It Does…

…Right???

😦

DAMMIT.”

So... Are YOU Jivin Me -questionmark-

My Morning Mixes: No Coolin’ Down, Just Jammin’ It HARD!

Since It’s Very Brisk Outside This Morning…

…I Decided Not To Fool Around With My Walkin’ Playlist.

I Didn’t Wanna Freeze Me Arse Toooo Much…

…So I Just Loaded-Up On Jammin’ Tunage!

I Tried To Keep My Pace UP UP UP…

…And I Accomplished This With Great Personal Efficiency!

I Led Off With A Double-Shot Of…

DEPECHE MODE

…With…

PHOTOGRAPHIC (Live)”

…And…

SHOUT (Live)”

Next-Up Was Just A Fun Little Jam Called…

POUR SOME SUGAR ON ME

by DEF LEPPARD

…Which Some Of Y’all Might Remember.

((*wink wink*))

It Does Have A Nasty Habit Of Being Played A Little Too Often For My Taste, At Times.

BUT…

…This Morning…

…It Just Felt Like It Had A Place On My Walk.

And So…

…Well…

…It Did.

πŸ˜‰

I Kicked Myself (and my pace) WAY UP With The Next Jam…

DARUDE‘s

SANDSTORM

…A Song That Holds A Very Special Place In My Little World.

It Was Actually My OFFICIAL SONG With Someone Else, Many Many Moons Ago.

I Didn’t Pick-It To Be Our Song…

…But I Was Overruled.

Don’t That Just Go ‘N Figure!?

Sheesh.

Nevertheless…

…It’s A Damn Fine Jam…

…ESPECIALLY When You Wanna Walk FASTER!

FIND ANOTHER FOOL

by QUARTERFLASH

…Was Up Next.

I Know, I Know…

…How Do You Follow…

DARUDE

…With…

QUARTERFLASH

?!?

This Is MY Playlist, Dammit, So Don’t Go Hatin’!

(teehehe)

πŸ˜€

Moving On…

…I Threw-Down Some…

POISON

…Next, With…

UNSKINNY BOP

…A Song That Simply Screams FUN…

…And It’s A Damn Fine Walkin’ Tune.

Damn Fine, Indeed.

πŸ˜€Β Β Β Β  πŸ˜€

I Was Hurtin’ For A Touch Of…

PETER GABRIEL

…So I Popped-On His VERY Underrated Jam…

STEAM

…Which Is Also One Of His Most Totally Forgotten Jams.

Do You Remember It?!

See.

I Didn’t Think So.

Loser.

πŸ˜‰Β Β Β Β  πŸ˜€Β Β Β Β  πŸ˜‰

I’d Been In The Mood For…

EVE 6

…Alllll Morning Looooong…

…So I Treated Myself To Their Best Bester BESTEST JAM…

INSIDE OUT

!! !! !!

WOOT!!!

πŸ˜€

πŸ˜€

I Was Totally In Cruise Mode At This Point…

…Though My Ears Were Starting To Hurt From The Coooool Breezes.

So I Decided To Stay In Cruise Mode And Point My Cruise More Homeward.

Following That Nifty Piece Of Ear-Candy, I Went Ahead And Popped On A True Classic Favorite…

LITTLE GREEN BAG

by GEORGE BAKER SELECTION

…And That Did Put A Little More Wiggle In My Walk, I Won’t Deny It.

Mainly Because I Can’t.

I’m Sure Someone Would Have Called Me On It Had I Decided To Play It Cool.

But I’m Not Cool.

Therefore, I Don’t Play Cool.

I Just Am.

What That “Am” Is, However, Remains A Mystery To Me.

I Sincerely Haven’t The Foggiest.

πŸ™‚

I Was Only A Couple Blocks From The House When My Final Jam Was Selected.

I Didn’t Wanna Cool Down, But I’d Been Jammin’ It HARD…

…So I Compromised With Myself.

I Went With A Song That Wasn’t Really A Cool Down…

…Just An EXCEPTIONAL PIECE Of TUNAGE…

PLACEBO‘s

PURE MORNING

!!! !!! !!!

By The Time I Hit The Front Steps, I Was READY To Be INSIDE Ye Ole Homestead.

And As I’m Completing This Little Post…

…I Think My Ears Have FINALLY THAWED!

The Rest Of Me Was Pretty Much Fine Already.

But O.M.G. My Ears!

I’ll Have To Remember To Wear Something On Them Next Time.

As I’ve Already Been Told Today…

You Should’ve Worn A Sock-Hat.

😦

I Know I Should Have.

I Just Look Better In Baseball-Caps.

πŸ˜‰

Hope You’re ALL Having A Fine Morning…

…And I Hope Your Friday Goes Just Jim Dandy!

You DID Know It’s FRIDAY…

…Right?!

Good, Good.

Just Checking.

One Can Never Be Toooo Sure, Ya Know?!

Sure You Do.

Amazing Songs You’ve Never Heard Nor Heard Of: “DANGEROUS” by DEPECHE MODE (1989)

… … …

The Things You Do

Aren’t Good For My Health

The Moves You Make

You Make For Yourself

The Means You Use

Aren’t Meant To Confuse

Although They Do

They’re The Ones That I Would Choose

And I Wouldn’t Want It Any Other Way

You Wouldn’t Let Me Anyway…”

DANGEROUSIs The B-Side Track On ThePERSONAL JESUS Single Album From 1989 By DEPECHE MODE !!!

“…DANGEROUS

The Way You Leave Me Wanting More

DANGEROUS

That’s What I Want You For

DANGEROUS

When I Am In Your Arms

DANGEROUS

Know I will Come To Harm. …”

… … …

Alright…

…Odd As This May Sound To Y’all, My Peeps…

DANGEROUS

by DEPECHE MODE

…Is New To Me.

I’ve Been Listening To The Band Since The Late-1980s…

…And Yet Had Never Heard This Song Until Very Recently.

A Dear Friend Of Mine Brought It To My Attention…

…And I’ve Been Sorta Hooked On It Since.

The Funny Part…

…To ME…

…Is That It’s Been Out Since 1989…

…And Yet I Hadn’t The Foggiest As To Its Existence!

How Can A Man Pride Himself On Knowing All-Things In Regard To The Music Of His Favorite Band…

…Yet Hadn’t Heard One Of Their Very Best Songs?!

EXACTLY, My Peeps, EXACTLY!

Talk About A Pleasant Surprise!

DEPECHE MODE

…Only Comes Out With A New Album Every FOUR (4) Years…

…So, For Me To Have A Brand New Song To Listen To, At This Point In The Waiting Period, Is WONDERFUL!

DANGEROUS

…Is A HIGHLY-ADDICTIVE Little Number, That’s Fo SHO!

It’s Smooth.

It’s Cool.

It Has A Fantastic Rhythm…

…Pace…

…Beat…

…And The Lyrics Are Totally Awesome!

How Could I NOT Be Excited About This?!

EXACTLY AGAIN, My Peeps, EXACTLY AGAIN!

Y’all Know Me…

…I Love To Be Introduced To New And Exciting Things.

I Just Never Thought One Of Those New And Exciting Things Would Be A Song From My Favorite Band That, Until Recently, Never Existed In My World!

It’s Been Around For Over 20-Years…

…Yet I Never Knew It!

That’s Just Super-Duper-COOL!!!

πŸ˜€Β Β Β Β Β Β  πŸ˜€

Sooo…

…Am I Recommending This One To Y’all?!

YOU BETCHA!!

Why??

Because I Feel It’s A Song Worth Checking Out, My Peeps, Of Course!!

I’ve Already Given The Song The Ole “Walking” Test…

…And It Proved To Be SHEER PERFECTION!!

It Makes Any Walk Just That Much Better Than It Already Was.

Period.

If You Ever Get The Chance, My Peeps…

…I’d Totally Suggest You Give This One A Go.

Songs Of This Caliber Don’t Come Around Very Often…

…At Least, Not In My World.

It Takes A Lot For A Song To End-Up Being Part Of My Morning Routine…

…BUT…

…This Song…

DANGEROUS

…Totally Slots In PERFECTLY!!

So…

…If You’re Itching For Something New…

…Check This One Out…

…Ya Know…

…Even Though It’s Already Old.

πŸ˜‰

That’s Right Nifty, Ain’t It!?

YOU BETCHA, IT IS!!

My Morning Mixes: Bourbon, Scotch AND Beer? On A Monday Morning? OKAY!!!

Good Morning, My Peeps.

πŸ™‚

How Goes The Day So Far?

Too Early To Tell, Eh?

That’s What I Was Thinking, Also…

…Even Though My Day Is Already Hours Old.

How’d Ya Sleep?

I Gotcha, I Gotcha.

Me, Also.

It Took Nothing To Fall Asleep…

…And Everything To Stay Asleep.

In The End…

…Staying Asleep Failed, Yet Again.

Oh Well, Right?!

RIGHT!!

πŸ˜€

Well…

…We’re Not Here To Discuss Sleep, Anyway.

Are We?!

We’re Not, Right?!

Ah.

Good.

RIGHT!!

Let’s Talk A Little Music, Then!!

Good Plan, My Peeps, Good Plan!!

πŸ˜‰

WEEELLL…

…Temperature Wise…

…It’s Damn Near PERFECT, Outside.

That’s A VERY Good Thing.

We’ve Had Some Brisk Little Mornings Of Late…

…So Today Was Simply Made For Walkin’!

πŸ™‚

My Morning Mix Began With A Classic.

Which Classic Would That Be?!

GEORGE THOROGOOD & THE DESTROYERS

…And Their Version Of…

ONE BOURBON, ONE SCOTCH, ONE BEER

πŸ˜€

You Know I Like To Get My Walks Going Great…

…And This Morning Was No Different.

So Why Not Kick-It-Off With An 8 1/2 Minute Jam?!

Exactly, My Peeps, Exactly!

Why Not, INDEED!

πŸ˜‰

I Then Slipped Into Some…

…OH YEAH…

ALICE COOPER

…With His Charming Little Ditty…

TEENAGE FRANKENSTEIN

πŸ˜€

I Chose That One Because It Makes Me Happy To Do So.

TEENAGE FRANKENSTEIN

…Always Makes Me Think Of My Nephew, As He’s A Big Fan Of It, And That Generally Gives Me The Power To Pick-Up My Pace.

πŸ˜‰

I Went For A Double-Dose Of…

DEPECHE MODE

…After That.

I Went Old-School When I Hit-Up…

STORIES OF OLD

…And Then Went Oldest-School ((DEPECHE MODE Wise)) With…

JUST CAN’T GET ENOUGH

πŸ˜€Β Β Β Β Β Β  πŸ˜€

Trust Me, My Peeps, Those Two, Back-To-Back, Are A Wondrous Walking Combination, Fo SHO!

πŸ˜‰

I Decided To Stay In The Same Neighborhood…

…Musically Speaking…

…When I Went For A Little…

ERASURE

…And Their Immortal ((If You’re An ERASURE Fan)) Jam…

VICTIM OF LOVE

πŸ˜€

Let Me Guess…

…You’ve Never Heard The Words ERASURE And IMMORTAL In The Same Sentence?!

I Kinda Figured That One, Kids, I Really REALLY Did.

πŸ˜‰

TOM PETTY

…Was Up Next, As I Wanted To Slow-Down The Pace Just A Touch.

So I Went With…

FREE FALLIN’

πŸ˜€

That One Has Been A Fave-Fave Since Its Initial-Release…

…And Has Yet To Get Old To Me.

That’s What Great Tunage Is Supposed To Do, Right?!

RIGHT!!

πŸ˜‰

I Wanted To Pick-Up The Pace Again, But Not TOO MUCH…

…And I Had The Perfect Song In Mind…

TOO SHY

by KAJAGOOGOO

πŸ˜€

That’s Another Fave-Fave With Major “Lasting-Powers” Fo SHO!

It’s A Song That Always Makes Me Smile…

…And It’s Also A Perfect Walkin’ Jam!!

πŸ˜‰

I Had My Next Jam Already Picked-Out, As I Knew I Wanted To Kick The Pace WAY UP Before I Went Into My Cool-Down/Cruising Mode.

What Was It, You Ask?!

PART-TIME LOVER

…From The Man Himself…

STEVIE WONDER

πŸ˜€

You Must Remember, Kiddies, I’m A Child Of The ’80s…

…And That One Is My All-Time FAVE From Mr. WONDER!!

He’s Had A Ton Of Fantastic Jams…

…But That One Reminds Me Of MY OWN Past, As I Remember When It Was BRAND-NEW!!

πŸ˜‰

Finally…

…It Was Time To Cool-It-Down Before Calling-It-Quits.

I Ended-Up Selecting A Song I Hadn’t Listened To In Quite A While.

It Simply Fit What I Was Wanting To Do So Well.

My Final Jam Of The Morning Mix, Was…

LET IT BE

by THE BEATLES

πŸ˜€

Talk About A GREAT Early Morning Stroll, My Peeps.

GREAT, Indeed.

πŸ˜‰

Have ANY Of YOU Been On A Morning Walk-About?!

I’m Sure SOMEONE Has To Have Done So!

If You Have

Did You Jam-It As You Kicked-About?!

WHAT/WHO DID YOU LISTEN TO?!

I’d Love To Know, Fo SHO Fo SHO!!!

The Song Stuck In My Head: “TALK TO ME” by KISS (1980)

“…People Tell Me That You Run Around

And That You’re No Good

You Got A Bad Reputation

I Don’t Care What All The People Say

You Know They Talk Too Much

It’s A Fascination

All I Wanna Do Is Talk To You

And Maybe Go Out

And Form Some Kind Of Relation…”

TALK TO MEIs Off Of The KISS AlbumUNMASKEDWhich Was Released In 1980 !!!

“…So TALK TO ME

TALK TO ME

All I Want Is A Little Conversation

TALK TO ME

TALK TO ME

All I Want Is A Little Conversation. …”

The 1980 Single Album ForTALK TO MEBy KISS !!!

… … … …

… …

In 1980…

(*An Amazing Year, By The Way*)

…The Hard-Rock Band…

KISS

…Released Their Eighth Studio Album…

UNMASKED

…Which Contained The Song…

TALK TO ME

πŸ˜€

The Album Itself…

…Sadly…

…Was Considered A Bomb, For The Most Part…

…By The Standards The Band Had Set For Itself.

And I’ll Say It Right Now…

…NO…

TALK TO ME

…Is NOT A Fantastically Great Song For The Ages…

…Nor Anything Remotely Like That.

It Is…

…However…

…EXCEPTIONALLY CATCHY…

…Nearing The Term INFECTIOUS.

It’s Fun.

It’s Quirky.

It’s More POP ROCK Than HARD ROCK…

…Which Is Surely A Departure For The Band.

They’ve Dabbled In Pop’ish Tunes Before…

…But This One Is VERY Pop’ish.

Pop’ish Pop’ish, Ya Know?!

Sure You Do!!

πŸ˜‰

Regardless Of All This…

TALK TO ME

…Is A Song I DO Enjoy…

…And It’s Totally Great For Walking Purposes.

It Has A Good Beat AND Rhythm…

…And I Have A Soft-Spot For The Lyrics.

πŸ™‚

Of Whether You Should Spend Time AND Money…

…This Is One Where I’d Say…

…The Whole Album…

UNMASKED

???

Eh, If You Wanna.

😐

This Particular Song…

TALK TO ME

???

Sure, Why Not.

πŸ˜€

Enjoy The Rest Of Your Day, My Peeps.

I Think I Feel A Brisk Walk Creeping Up My Spine As We Speak.

And If It’s Not A Brisk Walk…

…I Sincerely Don’t Wanna Know What It Is…

…’Cause If It’s A Spider…

…I’M GONNA FREAK THE “F” OUT!!!

πŸ˜‰

Friends… Bloggers… Countrypersons… Lend Me Your Reading-Glasses!

As Some Of You May Have Noticed…

…I’ve Been In A Sort Of “Creative-Funk” Of Late.

I’ve Had So Much On My Mind…

…So SO Much, In-Fact…

…That I Sincerely Feel My Blog Has Been Suffering For It.

I’ve Felt Kinda Lost.

I’ve Felt Kinda Overwhelmed.

I’ve Felt I Could/Should Be Doing More.

So SO Much More.

It’s October…

…Which Is Usually My Favorite Month Of The Year…

…And I’ve Spent The Bulk Of It Depressed As Shit.

I’m Not Sure What To Make Of It.

I Mean…

…Yeah, I Know I’ve Had Some Dental Issues That Have Curbed My Little Joy-Ride Several Times…

…And I’ve Been Dealing With A Horrid Bout Of Loneliness…

…But Neither Of Those Are Quality Excuses.

Right Now…

…At This Moment In Time…

…I’m Also Dealing With The Reality That My Cat…

MISSY

(aka MYSTIQUE)

…Is Nearing Death.

She’s Been Very Sick For A Couple Weeks…

…And There’s Really Nothing I, Nor Anyone Else, Can Do For Her.

She’s Stopped Eating, Now.

Her Systems Are Shutting-Down.

She Just Wants To Lay Down, Anymore.

She’s Lost Her Will To Live, Or So It Seems, But I Can’t Bring Myself To Have Her Simply “Put-Down” As The Vet Would Say.

I’ve Never Been As Attached To Any Pet As I Have Been Toward Her…

…So That I Do Know Has Added To This “Funk” I’m In.

Things Are Just Starting To Snowball.

My Hair Is Long, Now.

Longer Than It’s Ever Been.

I’m About Halfway Into Having A Full Beard Again.

As Grandma Would Say, I Look Like A “Ragamuffin” Or Something To That Effect.

I Can’t Go On My Mind-Clearing-Walks Because My Feet Have Dried-Out And Split-Open On The Bottoms In Multiple Places (F-in OUCH!).

My Mouth Hurts…

…And There Are More Dental Appointments On The Horizon.

Years And Years Of Puking-My-Guts-Up On A Daily Basis Has Simply DESTROYED My Teeth.

They’re Weak.

They’re Brittle.

They Break Like It’s Nobody’s Business.

They Make Me Horridly Self-Conscious.

Especially In This Day And Age Where Everyone Strives For That Perfect Smile…

…Ya Know…

…The One I Used To Have.

I Really Could Go On And On, But I’ll Digress From That Point.

PUT THIS…

…ALL OF THIS…

…TOGETHER…

…And It Works-Out To A Simple Answer:

October Is Now My LEAST Favorite Month.

Period.

At Least…

…This October Is.

Perhaps Next Year Will Be Better.

I Sincerely Doubt It Will Be Better…

…But That Doesn’t Mean I’m Not HOPING It’ll Be Better.

I Just Need To Find A Way To Snap-Out-Of-It Somehow.

Ya Know Ya Know, My Peeps?!?

I Just Haven’t Yet Figured-Out The SOMEHOW Part.

I Just Know I Have To Have My “A”-Game Grooving By This Time Next Week.

I’m Taking A Weekend Trip To Chicago, Next Weekend.

My BFF Lives There…

…And I Haven’t Seen Him For Nearly THREE (3) Years.

His Brother…

…My Other BFF…

…Is Picking Me Up Friday, And We’re Making The Drive.

I’m Super Stoked About That…

…Though I Admit The Bulk Of My Excitement Is Buried Deep Down Inside Me.

You Know Me…

…It’s Not Easy For Me To Outwardly Show My True Emotional States.

But I DO Promise Y’all I’m Looking Forward To The Trip With Anxious-Anticipation.

I Just Don’t Want To Show-Up On His Doorstep In A Severely Depressed State Of Heart And Mind.

ANYWAY…

…I Think I’m Going To Shut-Up, Now.

No One Likes Reading A Blog Where The Author Just Sits About And Rambles On About His Pathetic-Excuse For A Life.

So I’ll End My Ramble.

Just Please Please PLEASE, My Peeps, Take Good Care Of Yourselves…

…And Take Good Care Of Each-Other.

I’m Sure I’ll Be Back To Ramble With Y’all Again.

Hopefully Very Soon.

L8r L8r, Tater-Tots.

The Song Stuck In My Head: “BAD INFLUENCE” by The ROBERT CRAY BAND (1983)

You Used Me

To Get Ya Anything You Wanted

Oh, But I’m A Changed Man

It’s Your Other Friend That Gets Ya What You Want Now

BAD INFLUENCEIs The Title Track Off Of The 1983 Album From The ROBERT CRAY BAND !!!

If I Go Through Those Same Things Again

I’ll Be Worse Off Than I Started

Oh, You’re Such A BAD INFLUENCE

Baby, You’ve Got Ways To Make Me Do What You Want

Oh, And You’re Such A BAD INFLUENCE

Girl I’ve Got To Stay Away. …

… … … … … … …

… … …

I Awoke This Morning Feeling Two Very Distinct Ways.

FIRST

…I Felt Like I Was Going To Die, My Mouth Was Hurting So Bad.

Sadly, I’ve Had A Stuffy Nose, So I’m Pretty Damned Sure I Breathed Through My Mouth, Almost Exclusively, All Night Long.

That’s A No Good, Kiddies.

That’s A No Good, Indeed.

SECOND

…I Was In The Mood To Listen To Some Quality Blues Music.

So…

To Combat The First Portion

…I Popped A Pain-Pill AND THEN Gave The Sore Area Of My Mouth A Slathering Of A Liquid Numbing-Agent (LIDOCAINE).

To Combat The Second Portion

…I Popped On Some Totally Awesome Jammage By…

The ROBERT CRAY BAND

!!!Β  πŸ˜€Β  !!!

So So So…

…At This Moment…

…At This Very Very Moment…

…Right Now…

…My Mouth Does NOT Hurt…

…And I’m Currently Addicted To Listening To This Song…

BAD INFLUENCE

by The ROBERT CRAY BAND

πŸ˜€

Not Bad, Eh?!

I Didn’t Think So, Either.

πŸ˜‰

The Song…

BAD INFLUENCE

…Is Totally A Personal Fave-Fave…

…But It Has Sadly Fallen Into The “Forgotten Classics” Category.

😦

Some Folks DO Remember The Album…

…But Not So Many People Remember The Song.

Not One Damned Bit.

And, To Me, That’s Sad.

The Whole Album Is TOTALLY EXCEPTIONAL

…And This Song Is Just One Of Its Highlights.

I Can VERY EASILY Recommend It To You, My Peeps.

BOTH The Song AND The Album.

If You’re Into More Of A Rockin’ Blues…

BAD INFLUENCE

…May Be An Undiscovered Country To You.

(yes, I borrowed the bit about the "Undiscovered Country" from Star Trek)

It’s Got’em All, My Peeps.

The Album Boasts Other Such Classics From…

The ROBERT CRAY BAND

…Like…

PHONE BOOTH

&

THE GRINDER

&

SO MANY WOMEN, SO LITTLE TIME

…And Especially…

WAITING FOR THE TIDE TO TURN

πŸ˜€Β Β Β Β  πŸ˜€Β Β Β Β  πŸ˜€

Anyway, My Peeps…

…I Think I’m Going To Duck-Outta-Here For A Bit.

Dawn Is Upon Us…

…And I Seriously Wanna Go For A Nice, Long Walk This Morning With My Serious Tunage In Tow!!!

Y’all Take Care…

…Be Good…

…See Me Soon…

…And Talk To Me Sooner!!!

πŸ™‚

L8r L8r, My Tater-Tots!!!
