Wow, congrats on the 51 years together! Quite an accomplishment, especially these days.
Another interesting fact that I forgot to tell you: Since “If You Could Read Mind” was about his divorce, after his children became adults, they requested he change the line “The feelings that you lack” to “The feelings that we lack” when he plays the song live. He graciously complied. Obviously, that is a emotional song for them.
Unfortunately, they just don’t make quality music like they used to.

You’ve got that right. I still love my 60’s, 70’s and some 80’s music because our daughter would blast VanHalen and Journey all over the house. I’ve got it all, even Be-Bop. Comes a time when you’re glad to have it because it takes you back to some very good times in your life like dating, proms, graduations, marriage, babies, etc. I always loved Steely Dan and when Walter Becker passed recently I decided to take my Steely Dan CD and play it while granddaughter and I make our weekly/daily
shopping trips and errands before she goes back to college at Texas A&M. Well Deacon Blues is one of my very favorites and I found out Alabama is a rival.....don’t know if that’s true or if it’s just in some students heads but she said she could live without the song and I told her I wouldn’t play it so much from here on out.......I lied.......now we just laugh about it......;)
