Another classic from my LP collection. Frank Luther had such good advice for the children, paired with singalong melodies.
In this track, we learn that we can’t skate on ice that’s too thin or we will fall right in. There will also be icicles up to your chin. Same goes for ice fishing and hockey. Guess Frank wasn’t that thorough after all, was he?
Exuberant sounds
Horns wail! Drums boom! Jumpin’ bass!
Big Bands sure did swing.
Christmas radio
Carols playing for weeks now
Click! Turning it off
Perry Como’s voice
Smooth and strong with perfect pitch
No equal today
Recently I had a dream
I took a trip in a time machine
Sitting in a director’s chair
soon surrounded by big permed hair
“Shoot the video!”,
Martha Quinn demanded
“Crank the fog machine!”,
I commanded
I saw it all in black & white
Pretty girls with horses
Desert gas stations
Raptors in slowmo flight
Heavy makeup on the boys
Sports cars, yachts, and other toys
Jump cut to working class scene
Factories gray, fields of green
Dancers dancing
Guitars screaming
So artfully done
There must be some meaning
Alas! All dreams do end
I’m awake and old again
But in that MTV-fueled haze
I remembered youthful days
His voice falls silent
“Weep not friends, I’m going home.”
Goodbye Ralph Stanley

I took a walk in nature
The songs of birds surrounded me
Branches were staffs for God’s treble clef
Sometime stop and listen
Creation will call out to you
When you listen to its music
New WordPress version
Coleman’s hitting the right notes
Music to my ears.
Goodbye Merle Haggard
Thank you for all your music
Hope you walk with Him
