I keep hearing long lost songs on the radio in the wee hours and I mistakenly thought this was by the Average White Band rather than one-hit wonder Wild Cherry. Live and learn.
Lay down the boogie and play that funky music till you die…

Thought this was appropriate for Party Day. 🙂
Today is the “official” party to celebrate my 20th anniversary of living in Spain. First I’m meeting some friends who are coming into town – we’re having lunch at Vineria San Telmo – and then I’ll head over to Bar Chinkoa around 7 o’clock to help Ana set things up. Should be a fun day.

This album by the fabulous Kiko Veneno came out in 1995, and this song especially reminds me of when I met Azar. I wish like crazy we could go back and do it all over again…

So there I was lying in bed during the wee hours and listening to the radio when an obvious cover version of Come Together came on. At first I thought “who the hell would have the nerve to do this!” and then I thought “hey, this actually sounds pretty good” and then “hey, I recognise that voice!” I had no idea this version existed. I think it’s fabby.
He one spinal cracker…

This morning I was skimming through tweets and saw that Beth (@MrsMagoo) had just re-watched Jesus Christ Superstar and had also done the math. Thirty-eight years! Sheesh that made me feel old. And I was reminded of my favourite song from that musical, so here it is.
