Lou Rawls recounts what it was like to live "in a city they call the Windy City." He doesn't name the city, but I figure it must be Breezewood, Pa., Galesburg, Ill., Blowing Rock, NC. or Hurricane, Utah.

The Dock Of The Bay" - Otis Redding I figure this song is about a wharfinger, or dock manager, who is burned out after having to constantly deal with conflicting demands from shippers, unions, state, federal and local government bureaucrats, environmentalists, etc. ("I can't do what ten people tell me to do").

“White Room”-Cream “Like a Rolling Stone”-Bob Dylan, “Revolution”-Beatles, “For What It’s Worth”-Buffalo Springfield, “Satisfaction”-Rolling Stones”, “White Rabbit”-Jefferson Airplane, “All Along The Watchtower”-Jimi Hendricks,”Time is on My Side” Rolling Stones, “Roadhouse Blues”-the Doors, “Love is Just a Four Letter Word” Joni Mitchell, “ Whole Lotta Love”-Led Zeppelin-and at least 100 others. On the way home from work on Monday listening to the classic rock station, I was singing along to “White Room”-pulled into the parking lot of the grocery store to get a few things, just jamming away-and a guy pulled in right beside me-when I looked over there, feeling silly, I noticed he was listening to the same station-singing “White Room” loudly, too. Favorite music makes the whole day fun...

Wow, it says there that Tony Orlando was only 16 when he did that one (before "Dawn" joined him).

That is a good tune-I like the Pearl Jam version, too...

To: Kathy in Alaska
The protagonist in this song is bold, ambitious and goal-oriented, in stark contrast to the credulous poltroon portrayed in Dickie Lee's "Patches" or the underachieving loser in the Four Seasons' "Dawn."
Midnight Mary--Jerry Cole (1963)
