I wonder wonder wonder wonder who taught me how to talk like that.

Reading jasonhare.com's latest Chart Attack put this song in my head.

Boz Scaggs reminds me of summers at my father's, in Walnut Creek California. Especially the summer he married my stepmother. It reminds me of his '73 Oldsmobile convertible and ice cream and the BART station and of walking along the railroad tracks to 7-11 to buy candy. Ahhhh... candy. The currency of youth.

KMTT - a radio station in Seattle - sometimes plays a live, acoustic version of this song, recorded in their studios, I believe. Truly, it's that version of the song that is stuck in my head. I would give anything to get my hands on a copy of that version. It's so cool.

Anyway, since I'm up, this is the song that is stuck in my head.

Lowdown - Boz Scaggs

Great, now I HAVE to find a recording of "Lido Shuffle"! (I'm singing it to myself as I write this). Oh, the odd little things that make up a 70's childhood...

Give the radio station a call or an email - you'd be surprised what they're willing to do for listeners.
