This song comes from a 1970's Bond movie.  It basically says "You do your thing and I'll do mine."

This came up on my iPod today. 

Dire Straights, Telegraph Road. 

Book off 15 minutes for this, and play it louder as it progresses.  Time and hearing loss well worth it.

A lot has been written about this band.  There was even a movie made.  This song is a bit out of character for them...an R&B classic!

I saw this high energy group play back around 1970.  They played at the U of S when I was being edgumacated there.  Great party dance band!

This was a great group back in the 60's.  The song was a hit but the band broke up with members going their own ways.

This song is acapella...no instruments.  It's an old song from the 40's with a seasonal theme.

This words in this song seemed to epitomize my thoughts back when it was first played.  Of course I was young back then.

I haven't played a country song for a while.  For a change I decided to play this one.

Older country music is different than other music.  Each song tells a story, often of moral failure.  You really need to listen to the words to get the song.  This is an example from perhaps the greatest storytelling country music star of the last century.
