    What a great song, the lyrics are so true. Bob is really a poet and musician worth listening to. Thank you Daniel, this one is stellar!

    What a classic! Grace Slick, always wondered if that was her real last name, is so young and comely in this video. Age can be SO cruel to women, you wouldn't recognize her now. All the same, her head seems to be in a very good place.

    Adding:
    I took trips about twenty five times. I sincerely wish that I stopped after the first one. Chasing an original high is pure futility. I wasn't anywhere near wise enough to put that into practice.

    Sorry that some vids don't play right for you. Personally speaking, this is a bad one to have to miss.

    tragic song about the male condition trying to build a life only to find loneliness and despair. Most of us have been "sitting at the dock at the bay" at one point ore another.

    Same girl-same song-different back up, Pentatronics. The fact that she holds her own with them is amazing!

    And what you also may not know is that the second guitar line in Layla was played by none other than the late Duane Allman, who so impressed Clapton that he publicly said something to the effect that 'Duane is the finest blues/rock guitarist around'.

    He had a pedigree: Wilson Pickett, Boz Scaggs, and Aretha Franklin all used him as their session guitarist, among many others. All this was before the Allman Brothers Band stole our hearts.

    Yes, you have to raise them to appreciate the the glory of aging.
    But perhaps the mere sight of us will do the trick.":O}

    Be warned, we may not have the back ground the
    girl shouts are looking for...But girl scouts don't have much back ground at all. I have socks older than most of them! Which is why they take so much raising.

    I run into the stutters in about one in twenty songs. If you want to hear something really badly you can Google .

    I can usually find one that does work. I have to go looking for a sub when I'm posting about one in ten times.
    It's a pita, but it's for music for my friends so I don't mind....except when I can find one that plays.

    Then I resort to listening to your music.":O}

    Have you not seen my Avatar? I use this Avatar as it hides my age. It adorns me with a rare beauty I alas no longer posses. Women go for my Avatar, not so much my actual continence.

    In my Dreams I hear Grace slick asking if I was once as beautiful as my Avatar.
    I bury my head in my pillow and Lie to Grace I tell her flat out Yes.
    But in my dream she knows it isn't true.

    My wife at 66 still holds for me my very definition of famine beauty.

    She has shaped my sense of beauty since I first met her/ I don't see her as she once was but as she stands before me now. And I fall in love all over again.

    What ever a woman's virtue, accomplishment. sacrifice or appearance; her beauty must come from her heart.
    For it is in a womans heart that we find her. In a womans heart that we are found.

    This being so I enjoin you to hear what My man Percy has to say on the subject:
