Ahhh, but Brothers In Arms...just blows me away.
I came so close to becoming a career fly-boy, but my blue/green eye
sight kept me grounded.

beautiful job of Willin' that I fell in lust with that woman back
then....)

Dammit... now I got Dixie Chicken buzzin' in my head....

It's tough to beat Dire Straits - not impossible, but tough.

"Industrial Disease", "Skateaway" and "The Man's too Strong" stand out
as favorites, to me.

All good, all good.

Don't forget Little Feat. I seem to be getting them more and
more as I get older.


It's so easy to slip
It's so easy to fall
And let your memory drift
And do nothin' at all
All the love that you missed
All the people that you can't recall
Do they really exist at all
