Is this a good song, or what? I really DO love this song. The above photo of Glen Campbell was taken well after the success of the amazing song, obviously; there is no disrespect intended since I know a lot of best laid plans...
I miss songs that have real evidence of talent. It seems to me (and maybe I am just getting old) that a lot of musicians these days are not cool with poetics. How sad. :(

I have always loved this song. I understand the need for poetics...alas...I guess I find poetry everywhere:>). I remember seeing this photo when
G.C. was arrested...for a DWI I think. I thought it was sad and I appreciate you remembering the good times. As an adult child of an alcoholic father, I know the price these often gifted persons and the persons who love them pay.

Thanks for commenting Linda. I think that the raw talents of the world have it a little harder than the rest. And yet they produce so much of what is inspiration for the rest of us!
Ah brief opportunity...That last almost post looked very interesting. Any thought of putting up again?

Hi Linda,
I have still got to figure out how to format some of these. I have done this a couple of times: published a post only to see how it looks, and then wring my hands and save it back to draft.
I can definitely relate to that! Fortunately Rhi helps me with the technical end of this endeavor...She is a second year music student. Check out her blog newly begun blog...inspired from all she has learned helping with mine....Peanut Butter Bound
