Frampton “Do you feel like we do” is missing.
Glaringly.
However, I wish we could have an Alt Best Music of the 70s contest.
It was a little before my time, but was this not one on the best?
Truckin', like the do-dah man.
Once told me "You've got to play your hand"
Sometimes your cards ain't worth a dime,
if you don't lay'em down,
Sometimes the light's all shinin' on me,
Other times I can barely see.
Lately it occurs to me what a long, strange trip it's been.
