June 1971

[saffronhare]

I'm expecting to be swamped at the office tomorrow, so I'm posting this now before I forget. There was a LOT of vinyl in our house. I have vivid memories of my father spending entire weekends making mix tapes, timing the songs on the record player with the cassette recorder (or even the reel-to-reel!). I remember singing this one in the car and loving it when my father would sing. He doesn't sing very often these days, but he's got a surprisingly pleasant baritone (at least, that's what I think his range is...I have a horrible sense for such things).

I love how Carole is so REAL in this video, with the hair that keeps getting in her way and her unexpected white shoes under the piano.

Really lovely and helped to mend my mood tonight, thanks.
