Colorful Synchronicity

If I'd been paying better attention earlier in the week, I would have made it to the Sing Along Harold and Maude at the Hollywood Theater last Thursday night.   Unfortunately I learned about it at 6:30 p.m. the day of the show with screenings at 7 and 9 p.m.  I was a bit too tired to make it through the 9:00 show and still struggle to work on time the next morning.

At the same time, Splotchy put up the next Green Monkey Music Project challenge:  ROYGBIV & of course I wanna play and nimbly come up with a handful of Robyn Hitchcock and R.E.M. songs with the appropriate colors in their titles, completely spacing out all the Cat Stevens "color" song titles.

Splotchy, I'm trading out Dylan for Cat's Bitter Blue.   Still looking for Indigo and Violet.  

Meanwhile, enjoy some 70's nostalgia. Cat Stevens before he got weird.  While he was still dreamily handsome (the inside cover of Teaser and the Firecat was always on view in my teenage bedroom).  Damn he wrote and sang some good tunes!  Does he hold up?






He messes up at the end of Bitter Blue.  Hee!
