RJ,
Starship, Airplane, it's NOT all the same to them, lol!
Sad about the funeral, wish it weren't so.
Maybe the music can help a little.

Starship, Airplane, it's all the same to me...just kidding.
I'm off today for the funeral, but I'll definitely be watching my email. Thanks Mike.
RJ,
Just noticed you wrote Jefferson Starship.
It was the Jefferson Airplane at that time, and they were just beginning to become huge!
Watch your mailbox for music.
And a couple of weeks ago I listened to your 2nd Kiss CD, haven't had a chance but more on that.

Mike,
Hey bro. I'm loving this series. Loved the Beatles tune, followed by the antique commercial (is antique a valid description here?). Also, really loved the commercials for The Loving Spoonful and Jefferson Starship, especially those ticket prices. The 60's really must have been a great decade.
I'm not a Bob Dylan fan, but I think that song Positively 4Th Street is fantastic, even his singing voice. Then Homeward Bound by S&G. There really was some great music in the 60's.
Now, for the true hidden gem. I think you said it was Elusive Butterfly by Bob Lynde. I'm about to tell you why music is magical. I've never heard that song before. First, I think it's a gorgeous song. I love the aura of it. Although I had not heard it, it took me straight to the time period that is the subject of this series. Here's where it turns serious. My maternal Grandmother died yesterday. She's been very sick for a long time and has only suffered over the last 6 months, so I know she's in a better place. But this song just made me think of her. I can't tell you why. But it made me think that in 1966, she was in her 40's. It made me wonder if she listened to FM radio back then. It made me wonder what kind of music she liked back then. Unfortunately, I'll never know. It just made me think of her, and that is the beauty and power of music and someone like you who loves it and keeps the 60's and other decades alive (through your show) for folks like me.
So enough of the sad parts of life. Thanks for making me think of my Grandmother today.
RJ
