It's hard to think about this routine ending sometime but I have been re reading for a long time now and it is always good. I like being able to pick a catagory and get back into it. <br /><br />In latter years I find I am not so much into pop culture, but MY culture started when my kid brother brought a 45 home of Bill Haley and his Comets doing Rock Around the Clock. Then there was Elvis and the rest became history. My all time favorite from that era was a 45 by Bill Doggett: Honky Tonk Part one and Part two was on side B. I still love it. We had no idea where this mucic came from at the time and the guitar, simple now, was very wild at the time. <br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vr-TJ0A6RIM<br /><br />Have a great year, Stape. See you at Snow Camp W. I am going to do some practice outings to bone up.

When I read Stapleton's blog (in the privacy of my office) I can sometimes be heard laughing (by my husband across the hall in his office.) It's the only time he hears any noise coming out of my office. "What are you doing?" he calls out after a particularly loud laugh. Its usually in response to a remark you toss off or one of the outstanding utube music videos you post. <br />Well, today the laugh was for Philip's question about that position you had to give up due to your demanding blogging schedule...Mary Byromhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12647925500872647350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5682081471599286551.post-59443440614964617252010-01-01T10:48:56.037-05:002010-01-01T10:48:56.037-05:00For arcane art historical lore, Stape is hard to b...For arcane art historical lore, Stape is hard to beat.
