I can't believe i've found this posting. This take me back almost 35yrs . I had an apartment in Phila., single and smoking much weed. Those were the days, listening WRTI FM Temple Univ. jazz station . Those were the days.Thank you.

@vdez1969 - I first heard it on WMMR-FM in early 1975....back when the DJs had freedom to play what they wanted....and weren't obliged to play the same sh*t over and over again.

Saw Taj and the band in Madison doing all the tunes off of this album. What a great evening....

74' - 75' way cool.....

[jonahbrooke]

Great job posting this; perchance can you post the "sequel" from his LP "Music Keeps me Together" the song is "Why?...And we repeat....And we repeat?"

"Speaking of people,I don't like your friends"

One of the best lines in a song I ever heard. My former wife couldn't stand this song. Thank goodness she's been recycled, and I still have the album.

Great Post.
