I Remember…

… Iron Butterfly, Alice Cooper and Black Sabbath. But do you remember BLOODROCK?? “We were flying low, and hit something in the air.”

There’s a really obvious splice in there from where the album version was cut down for the single. If four-and-a-half minutes of somebody being “self-aware” they’re dying isn’t enough for you, here is the classic “D.O.A.”

A Spanish Flair

Old habits never die, and I still like to play DJ.

A Peruvian folk song adapted by Paul Simon. I was in the ninth grade when this was a single on the radio. Simon was the creative force, but for singing he had to occasionally bow to Garfunkel’s superior ability.

Seven years later I was a radio DJ and this record was in regular rotation at the station where I worked. For all of the attention that was given to blonde Agnetha, Anni-Frid has always been my favorite.
