<div><font size="3">You may like that If I Were A Carpenter song, but Tim Hardin wasn't exactly thrilled with it.</font></div>
<div><font size="3">Tim wrote it and originally recorded it, almost exactly the same arrangement that Darin copied.</font></div>
<div><font size="3">It could have been the same instrumental track and vocal style, so Tim was not pleased he didn't have a hit with his own song and Darin did!</font></div>

<div><font size="3">I'll play them back to back, or at least Tim's version someday.</font></div>
<div><font size="3">I remember Robert Plant's version, don't know if I have it.</font></div>
<div><font size="3">Hey I just pick 'em- if the music got harder as this show went on, that was just the flow at the time. </font></div>
<div><font size="3">Glad you think playing the harder tunes with the mellower tunes is cool.</font></div>
<div><font size="3">But songs flowing together, that's what I TRY FOR, LOL!</font></div>
<div><font size="3">I mean think about it, when I do a Theme that's precisely what I want!</font></div>
<div><font size="3">I'd play Christopher Cross followed by Black Sabbath.</font></div>
<div><font size="3">And be proud of it, lol!</font></div>

<p>I like that carpenter song, but everytime I hear it, I think of Robert Plant's version. All the versions I've heard are good because it's such a great song, but after hearing this I wanna grab RP's version.</p>
<p>Kinda funny (to me at least), the music got harder as this show went on. But playing the harder tunes with the mellower tunes is so cool. Keeps you on your toes, especially if they don't flow together. To hell with songs flowing together, that's just stupid. I've mentioned this…</p>

Keeps you on your toes, especially if they don't flow together. To hell with songs flowing together, that's just stupid. I've mentioned this before (I think) but I still remember one of the FM stations playing Christopher Cross followed by Black Sabbath in the early 80's. So different, but I thought it was the coolest thing.</p>
<p>Oh well, nice show!</p>
