. . . suitcase in my hand. Jack is in his corset, Jane is in her vest . . . oh, uh. Wrong corner. But it must have been sweet to survive all of these decades. Thank you, and rest in peace, Lou Reed. We’re thinking of another corner with another group of musicians. The corner we’re thinking about here is about as far away as you could get, physically and mentally from NYC, but still had that thread of continuity: music of the 1970’s. That corner is Winslow Arizona. Remember the song? How can you forget. It’s Take it Easy by The Eagles.
Something about a girl (my lord) and how she is slowing down her pickup truck (but of course) and is checking out our hero. You know the rest. But did you know that there is a place called Winslow Arizona? And did you know that there is a corner there, too? What a coincidence, and maybe a bit of a stretch as part of a post. Hey ho.
In the Pacific Northwest of Canada, there once was a radio station (remember those) which had a DJ named Wayne Cox. He’s certainly seen his share of rock musicians and he still keeps the Rock n’ Roll fires alive. Read more about the connection and, kick back, listen to the band and remember the days when music was organic and something to look forward to. Read more, below. Click here.
