The stuff that now passes as "music", particularly rock 'n roll, leaves me cold. So, to start off the week, here's a video of a classic rock artist.
To start off this week, we have Eagles and their classic hit, "Take It Easy".
Of course, I would be remiss not to mention that some of the lyrics in the song inspired the city of Winslow, Arizona to erect a park on Historic Route 66.
The lyrics:
Well, I'm a standin' on a corner in Winslow, Arizona
Such a fine sight to see
It's a girl, my Lord, in a flat-bed Ford
Slowin' down to take a look at me
Come on, baby, don't say maybe
I gotta know if your sweet love is gonna save me
We may lose and we may win, though we will never be here again
So open up I'm climbin' in, so take it easy
Two years ago, I visited Winslow and the park and had this photo taken while there:
