Cool they merged and ended up with a hit. Like the collabs that happen with poet’s. ;)) Enjoyed this Damian

Great fucking act! This band and BTO deserve way more respect then they get. They were one of the biggest names in Canada. I’ll listen to them over Triumph or April Wine. Informative write.

And you finally hit on a band I’m not familiar with…although I know the song American Woman. I always find it fascinating when the people overrule the industry. Wouldn’t it be great if music wasn’t spoon fed by the industry telling us what to like? Many “unknown” tracks on big albums turned out to be my favorites. Awesome that they made it work! Another great story, my friend

Dear D,

That was awesome. Each title mentioned in this write I would start singing the refrain in my head. I’m so glad you’re carrying on this series of writes about these musicians. They’re so interesting and your writing of them is captivating. H🌷

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Tim. So glad you enjoy the stories my friend. That’s really cool, that you got to open for them. It was probably like the band, “Yes” Chris Squire was the only original member left in the group until his death. Now they tour with no original members. It’s like all the replacements took over the band. Appreciate you.

Powerfully penned, Brenda. Appreciate you.

This is one epic write Brenda. A lovely masterpiece you created here. Outstanding!

Dear B,

I enjoyed the overtones of sleepwalking under direction of the sub conscience. To me this had such a cool mix of sci-fi and reality because there are some days I feel like I’m just being told what to do to get through and others I’m more in control. I also appreciated your font and format. H🌷

Don’t count the minutes…..count the breaths.
Nice late night musing.

Damn, I can completely feel how it all seems like it can just slip right through your fingers…Time waits for no one and can be brutal with its incessantness, indeed

You created a universal understanding within your ink that most people can wholly identify with, especially once you’ve reached a certain age…

Wonderfully crafted – ty for sharing

Your poetry always makes the reader think. This one is no exception. Nice work Damian.

Sigh…it takes us where it takes us. Regardless where you were going it took me to this…honor the memories, live in the moment. Ain’t nobody perfect. We’ve all got our demons. And they live where we can’t outrun them. There’s a lot in this one that speaks to different thoughts for me. Gonna be pondering this one for a while, my friend

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Mary. So glad you connected with the write my friend. You’re spot on from another angle I was looking at as well. You’re so very welcome, and thank you. Appreciate you.

Has a bit of eeriness and regret like “The Raven”. Wonderful ink.

” Still repairing mistakes already made

Can’t hide past demons in the shade ”

Man, that hit home!!!
this whole vibe is a mood provoker.

Great writing.
