Some Albums really stood out for one reason or another, but never seemed to get the recognition they deserved. There are others that I just like to play every once in a while. This is one.
Hold fast to dreams
For if dreams die
Life is a broken-winged bird
That cannot fly.
Hold fast to dreams
For when dreams go
Life is a barren field
Frozen with snow.
Hey, it's songday. I pick a song that I believe warrants it and publish an assortment of the covers of that song by various persons and or groups. Pick a few that are new to you and have a listen. It is also, of course, an open thread to talk about anything you feel like.
Today's song is: Spoonful
Howlin' Wolf
or 'Getting to Grips with a New Camera'.
I've had the camera a couple of weeks.... and am still trying to work out all the options (seemingly thousands).
Of the shots I've taken, this one is my favourite:
Portrait of a Cat
Not much else that is very noteworthy, so here's a shot from last year.... a misty, Minnesota lake.
We've seen the amusing Twilight Zone comparisons. You know...the photo of Rod Serling standing in front of a dismal, glowering Trump who's sitting in the Oval Office. Or that Scottish preview of the inauguration. What? You haven't read that? Wait a sec...
