Crying- Roy Orbison

I'm just at this moment listening to one of the most underrated albums of all time, Roy's "King of Hearts" Great album, great voice.

Interesting Cats in the cradle info from Wiki "The lyrics to the verses of the song were originally written as a poem by Chapin's wife, Sandy Chapin, who is credited as the song's co-writer.[1] The poem itself was inspired by the awkward relationship between Sandy Chapin's first husband, James Cashmore, and his father, a New York City politician. She was also inspired by a country song she heard on the radio. More than a year later, after the birth of his own son, Harry added the music and the chorus. Label executive David Geffen selected the song as a single, over Chapin's objections."

"Where is Coca Cabana?",

It's the "Copa" and I think it retired to Florida along with Barry. He seemed pretty good back in the 70's when I saw him (twice) in concert. (Let's keep that one a secret).
