I've long thought Eric Carmen's "Go All the Way" by his group, Raspberries (1972) was a practically perfect rock n roll song.

Eric was classically trained and knew how to lay out a melody (few rock songs are this melodic).
The wee-hours road rollerskating is pure ballet, giving a surreal, kinetic touch to a magical song. Athletic ladies -- pro rollerskaters -- easy on the eyes. Enjoy.

Enjoying it even without the music. (at the office, no headphones)

Eric was a hardcore conservative in his final years.

Good for you. We need a few moments of sweet nothings these days.

Roller skating and disco worked well together. Do NOT ask me how I know.

He could still do his songs perfectly at age 56. He died a couple of years ago at 74. RIP

Eric Carmen? The fat kid from South Park?
To: Migraine
Hey, I took disco lessons so the babe would go to the prom with me. I’ve got stories that really should remain secrets.

Yep, we all had to make compromises in High School to get the chicks.

This was one of the songs that played on the sound system during my high school swim team workouts. I always kind of smell chlorine when I hear it.

That swim team anecdote is fascinating to me. My wife just finished putting together a collection of songs to work out with at our local pool.

A lot of tweets in support of President Trump
To: Migraine
Well, I’ll be ... never cared for the song, but I always heard “Please don’t go away.”
To: gloryblaze
Nope. It was a bit more suggestive than that. LOL. Early on, there were a lot of radio stations that wouldn’t play it.
