I read that a lot of visitors to Seattle report UFO's on foggy mornings. That is hilarious! But I have to admit, the space needle definitely has the look...

A Well Parodied Man...
The Kinks went to #13 in 1965 with "A Well Respected Man". The song was Ray Davies' jab at long established class distinctions in Great Britain, with funny references to typical upper class behavior... as Ray saw it. It's still a great song today, perhaps even funnier now than 49 years ago.
Watch the Kinks do the song Live here...

Lovin' Nashville!
In 1966 the Lovin' Spoonful was riding high on the charts regularly. Their third album "Hums" produced three top ten hits. One of these was lead singer John Sebastian's tributes to the musicians and music in Nashville. "Nashville Cats" went to #8 on Billboard's Hot 100. The band thought it would cross into the country chart but it never did. It's a nice little song that has probably become a forgotten oldie because it doesn't really fit any music genre...

I have this tree...
And my tree is growing over my wall... and I don't want to trim it... what can I do? How about painting the wall? Doesn't that tree look better now?

Recycle!
Halloween is just around the corner. To save a few dollars, recycle last year's pumpkin... hopefully you saved it in a dry place so it still looks good. Hey, it's pretty scary now!!

I Think I Forgot You...
Can it be? Yet another song that hit #1 that has slipped into the Forgotten Oldie category? Yup! The Partridge Family released "I Think I Love You' to coincide with their new TV show in 1970, and the song exploded to number one in the USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Sung by show stars David Cassidy and Shirley Jones, the song has almost disappeared from the airwaves.
