LadyG 1981

Ok, seriously!
Enough is enough!
I have got to find ways to improve my mental wellbeing.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m still ALL about the cause and will continue my work…
But, as my dear friend, the other Lady G oft quotes, “The world is too much with us…”
She borrowed it from Wordsworth and I borrowed it from her.
And so…
In an effort to keep “the world” manageable for ME, I decided to do something fun on the blog by offering a rambling commentary on my musical posts, including “My Jams” which was a R&B series for years 1966-1996.
Join me as I touch on…

Record Stores
Cassette Tapes
8 tracks

LP’s
Reaganomics

All of that comes from this post.

Record stores! My gawd I loved those – especially the “Record Centre” which was a store downtown where you could *rent* records – for a week. Cost almost nothing!
BTW G, am so caught up in stuff lately, hard to keep up with your posts! You’re so prolific! Will try when I can! 💝

Hi! Oh, I bought some too! I’ve got a heckuva lot of vinyl here, mostly folk, but other stuff too. Lotta blues. 🙂

I miss the record store 😦 It was the first place I was allowed to walk by myself at age 12.
Let’s do 1991…the year I graduated ❤
