Finally, There's an Answer to This Question...

i know this one! it's SOON! like TWO WEEKS kinda soon! precious moments, indeed. of course, your Cali family will make your departure bittersweet, and i fully expect you to not want to leave San Fransisco after your visit (seriously, SF rules and three days ain't enough time, by far) but your parents and i, not to mention your legions of local fans, can't wait to have to back! getting goosebumps just thinkin' 'bout it.

and for anyone who thinks this song is cheesy, i say "you, sir or madam, can't recognize greatness" as the Three Degrees are freakin awesome. for all-female singing groups, i think they're as good, if not better, as the Supremes. The Supremes were on the cusp of the Motown wave, and we can never take their classics away from them, but all the "Baby Love"s and "Heat Wave"s in the world can never live up to the supreme lyrical surreality and total vocal control inherent in one "Collage". (plus, it's a natural head-nodder with spooky vibraphones, fuzz bass... all great things).



winter time is a razor blade that the devil made, it's the price we pay for the summertime..... fantastic.
