[nllleonard]

Okay...can't stand it..have to write that again and see if it comes out right this time! It should have said....it was a great concert. It was an amazing era for music for sure. If I had the opportunity to be twenty-one again, but would lose the memory of all the wonderful music I heard then, I would forego youth! Now let's see if it comes through this time!!!

I love Cat Stevens...know most of his songs by heart. Ever heard I Want to Live in a WigWam? ;) Treeman would love it!

I do!

[nllleonard]

Feel better, friend!!!

[coolanddark]

Thanks Nancy!! I got it!! You tube is acting up a bit!! Must be a glitch in the new channel design!?

[nllleonard]

Great song and performance, Dan!

I went to see Cat Stevens in the seventies (yes, I am old ;) and he was wonderful! He did stop playing during Peace Train and make us stop clapping....but other than that, it wan amazing era for music for sure. If I had the opportunity as an amazing concert! ;)

It was to be twenty-one again, but would lose the memory of all the wonderful music I heard then, I would forego youth.

[coolanddark]

Thanks Nancy!! That must have been an amazing concert!!! I hope he comes out of hiding and starts writing more great songs!!! We grew up in that era of incredible music that will last forever!!!
