1965 "frantic " garage rock from Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Apparently they played live between showings of The Beatles "Help" at one local theater and then the audience was able to purchase a copy of their latest 45. #MusicSky

June 1979. I actually like their version of this Bob Dylan song (1966, "Blonde on Blonde" album) even better than the original. But Bob did write one of the best lines ever in rock 'n roll: " To live outside the law you must be honest...". 😎

No one ran in a suit like Mannix. But Cinnamon was one of my childhood alter-egos - even though I always had to ask my Dad "Why are they doing that?" and "How do they make all those disguise faces?"

Every March for many years Mike "Keegan" Cannon climbed the iconic Annie Bridge in Kearny, NJ so the Irish flag could wave proudly over the Passaic River- visible from Newark to the entire surrounding area. The girder stands empty with his passing but the tradition he created remains alive. RIP. ☘️

Well, I don't think anyone expected you to do a show but you probably needed to. Even with some sonic"glitches" when I heard you say "Peter Gabriel " I figured everything was on track. 😁
