O!) Van & Schenck ÿ Ain't We Got Fun?               C> I'm sure you've heard it? It's easily found on YouTube, if you care to              Never heard of it. Not likely to bother.                      C> In 1971 (more of us around then?) the #1 song was "Joy To        C> The World" by Three Dog Night              Now, THAT was a favourite of mine.                      C> I have the vinyl LP (& hundreds of others from '70s & late        C> '60s, & some early '80s. . .)               C> Thousands total, filing up one wall of my living room.              Very nice. I have about 1100 LPs.                      C> They ain't worth squat, being as they're in what I        C> euphemistically call, "previously enjoyed condition" (oft-        C> played & it shows)              That's too bad. I took great pains to preserve my LPs. I        bought extra onion-paper sleeves and replaced the typical        factory paper versions.                      C> Some Beatles covers were once used as backdrop in a local        C> amateur play. (I might've chosen to go online, find the        C> original mint looking photos of the covers & print those,        C> but they wanted genuine aged copies, so there I was, & some        C> Stones, too)              Hmmm.. genuine vs print wouldn't have made a difference from        the point of view of an audience.                      C> What are your musical memories?               C> I love the era from '67 to '86 best, I'd say. . . Before        C> was too bubble gum-y, & after became too new age-y & pop-y              I dunno.. I have favourites across all the different decades.              --        ../|ug              --- OpenXP 5.0.50        * Origin: Time moves in one direction, memory in another. -WG- (2:221/1.58)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 14/0 90/1 105/81 120/340 123/131 129/305 153/757 154/10       SEEN-BY: 203/0 218/840 221/1 6 360 226/30 227/114 702 229/424 426       SEEN-BY: 229/428 452 664 700 981 1017 240/5832 249/206 307 317 400       SEEN-BY: 280/464 5003 282/1038 292/854 301/1 317/3 322/757 335/364       SEEN-BY: 342/200 423/81 633/280 770/1 4500/1       PATH: 221/1 6 1 6 229/664 426           |
