Those severed head blues

As I am sitting here the song Bohemian Rhapsody starts on the radio and I think of those days listening to this massive opus of a song, listening to it on those distant A.M. stations and hearing that fading and high pitch of it going in and out as the signal glided over the ionisphere and get to the radio in waves.. Today there is satellite radio so there is none of that, it is true to the digital age, gone are the days of wanting to hear that song because I heard some of it, but the channel faded out or I tried to find it and it was just not... there.. where did it go??  It was right there and now it's gone.. Oh well, let's find out what's on KSTP or KOMA...  Back then they were true to form rock and roll, back when rock music was ...    

Today I decided to "unlike" the sirius xm radio Facebook page because, well because I no longer need to look at their site and have confirmation of many others unhappy with their programming decisions.. The service is fine for mainstream listeners and those who like what little talk radio they offer.. People asking the company to bring back the Clear Channel programmed talk channels won't happen anytime soon.. If I controlled that part for CC I would not offer any rebroadcast of their programming because they have their own platform to offer it in i-Heart radio.. And it's free, sort of..

Last night we watched the little guys club, Ian and Ryan, and as we pulled into the driveway getting home, I got the car unloaded and had the feeling hit me of deja' vu as I stepped on the ramp to go into the house,  the weather reminded me of that fateful night when I had to call for the ambulance to come pick up my dad.. That night, the weather was almost identical to last night except it wasn't foggy... The start of the ordeal that would be... the end..

The previous entry I wrote about a few groups that were .. kinda special from the time in my life when I played the drums for a rock band..  The Hanover album I had just bought and taken to the party, literally bought it that night and was playing it in the car stereo and thought this might need the guys to listen to it.. I thought it was good but it was beyond anyone in the bands ability to sing it.. Check it out:

Every time I listen to this album the memories of that night come flooding back.. The perfect party, with the band and our fans back in the early days before our popularity started to fade..

And then there was Wrabit with Anyway, Anytime...  Just my kind of Rock music.. The first album was the best, but isn't that the way it usually goes..
