"...my God it's sad when another one dies...I get a lump in my throat & a tear in my eye..."
I wrote this one night after watching some dreadful punk rockers on television & thinking how music in lots of respects, had gone downhill over the past thirty years, and how different it might have been if all my idols were still alive & churning out the great songs we grew up with.
