when AL said "dad's record collection" I had hopes of hearing my "Somethin' Stupid" request, but no.
I coincidentally had a little re-aquaintance with my vinyl collection today. We've had some repair work due to water damage done in our dining room, and I've had to take all my vinyl out of the record case (about 600 records) and then today I had to put them all back in. My eyes passed over albums I hadn't seen in a jillion years!
Also, I played "Higher and Higher" to one of my classes today on their entrance into the classroom. Today was the first day of students at the new school.
I really feel Richie Havens version is the most soulful version I've heard of SBB. Even the original just sounds so old-timey pizza parlory. Never liked EC's version, and I'm not a Clapton basher either. But yes, I'd have liked to have heard the closing tune too!
