JOHNNY RIVERS
It has been a while since the last music post, so here is one that harks back a while - Johnny Rivers had some big songs in the 60's ad 70's, and although the music does not transport me back to a specific time or place, it does give me a feel-good nostalgic feeling for 'the days of our youth' as they say. His string of hit singles was from 1964-1968, exactly when I was in college. Here are two of my favorites. Enjoy.
Favorite is "Slow Dancin', Swayin' to the Music," the song the mother of my children and I danced to the night we first met. Sigh...

ReplyDeleteMany thanks, Sir! I really appreciate hearing that song once again!
ReplyDeletede nada - I had not thought of that tune for a long, long time, but like many of those oldies, the melody and the words come right back!
