I am very fond of this song also and it surely brings back some great memories of my earlier years and good times. Yes, I also love ballads more than anything else. As a matter of fact my partner Nancy came home with this CD just a couple days ago, I happen to still have it on vinyl, the best medium ever devised!!

Hey, Andy! Thanks for stopping by! Nice to see great minds think alike! ;)

It is a very haunting tune. Along with the ubiquitous “White Rabbit” one of my favorite Airplane songs. They got a little too poppish for me when they became Jefferson Starship.

Hey, Ozy! Thanks for stopping by! It seems as though we’re in complete agreement on this one. ;)

My pleasure. And yes, it is an amazing song. The lyrics are poetry in and of themselves, and the music fits them perfectly. One of my favorite songs. I’m glad you enjoyed it.

That song was always a favorite. I probably have about 300 vinyl records from the 60′s and early 70′s. I just don’t have a record player anymore. Great song!!

I’m glad you enjoyed it. It’s a great song.

Record players can still be had; you just have look a little. There’s a website called NeedleDoctor.com which seems pretty good. I checked them out online, and they seem to have a pretty good reputation. I’m sure you can find others with a little digging.

The line about the window where no curtain hung always gets me, for some reason.

Strange really. Listening to this song I remember how I used to soak up songs like these, how I could sit for hours and hours in my room listening to sad songs with even sadder music. I am also surprised how far away that feels now. And how blessed that makes me.

Songs, and particularly lyrics, like these just strike a chord with me for some reason.

Am back safe. Now I have some laundry to do (surprisingly little, me likes traveling in a convertible :-) ). Will get to my 500 photos some time soon……

I’ll look forward to seeing them. ;)

Have a summery day.

Am in the process of doing same.
