Fighting cancer in a family unit requires the effort usually directed towards tertiary concerns, i.e. me and my dog's blog, to be redirected and focused elsewhere.
"It's been a long time since I've spoke to you. Has it been too long?"
Point is: we beat the cancer, got through the school term, got a promotion at work (i.e guaranteed hours, benefits etc) and just lived. In times between, I listened to about 40 CDs from the Harvey box, half of which ended up in the discard pile. Of those I liked enough to retain: The Misunderstood (featuring Glenn Ross Campbell), Hackamore Brick (likeable early 70's outfit that came off as a B version of the Velvet Underground), The Parliaments (Funkadelic king George Clinton's soul/doo wop outfit) & Morgen (late 60's homemade heavy rock hysteria) stand out.
So glad about the cancer + the promotion! Also that you're happy in the West (tho I still think of anywhere east of the Rockies as East).
ReplyDeleteThe Parliaments--are they kind of like the Bros. Johnson?
No! The Parliaments were the soul vocal predecessor to Funkadelic . Big difference
