That really put me in mind of early Gil Scott Heron. I spent a million years listening to this kinda thing:) Thanks for sharing, so wonderful to hear new artists

Gorgeous. I love the first stanza of part 4 especially. I'm not where I can listen to music right now but making a mental note to come back later. I also remember (and kind of love) the days of listening to the radio and almost NEVER knowing the name of the song or the artist (especially when I was a kid) but waiting for it to come back on with a blank tape waiting to record it...

Oh, my, I did that too! I think we all did that back then. I still have some of those tapes :)

My oldest daughter has all of mine. She used to listen to them on my old Walkman (which only died a few years ago, after 25+ years of service), and most recently, was using them as wall decorations :).

Oh, so sweet! My tapes are piled up in a dark closet but my Walkam is still very much alive :)
