1966 (A Monologue) Comments

I've had a few looks at all this. Those were the days! Love The Beach Boys, Don Revie's Leeds United.1974 was ace: Leeds Champions and Man U relegated. Tomorrow I might get bonto your second poem! Only joking. Good stuff. Paul.

Well-written, very interesting monologue. The part about Maureen hurt a bit, just the whole idea sounds so painful, losing your virginity and never going out again. But heaven knows, losing my virginity was a painful, clumsy experience. So your description evoked a few memories. Peace, L&T

this is a great introspective/retrospective, commands attention and very informative. I'll read Mr. Harris's piece, and maybe i'll be inspired to do '1979' Oh, wait, has that been done (Smashing Pumpkins?)

In 1966 David I was working in a record distributing co. where I would ship phonograph records all over my State. That's where I kept up with all the groups, and everybody who put out records back then, I knew about.although I like all the artist of that day I was mainly a Johnny Cash fan back then. He helped me break away from the reality of the times. those were some troubling times, and not only because of the war in Vietnam. 'Again I thank you for your kind comments'

A finer homage I've yet to read. But it's only 2007, there's a lot more to come. Good writing David, very good.

David, thanks for the mention my friend. Wow that was a trip down memory lane especially the music I remember it so well. I still have the vinyls from those days. I wouldn't part with them for a minute, It was period in my life as well because I met another girl that year and fell head over heals, but we never got a chance to go out. I could go on and on I suspect you could to. What wonderful memories those years have for us both. Top marks and thanks for sharing it my friend. David
