Good morning, Kittens and Dawgs! How was y’alls weekend? Since we last met on the dance floor a new month ushered in. The summer is passing quickly! Let’s get our groove on with today’s theme ‘your choice song picks‘ and I’m spinning inspired choices from Sirius XM radio The Bridge (channel 32) from the 60s and 70s with these classic MELLOW ROCK TUNES!
- THE ONE YOU LOVE ❦ Glenn Frey released this song August 1982 from his album NO FUN ALOUD under Asylum Records label. The song peaked at #15 just two months after it came out. ’82 was a memorable year. That was when the whole planet came to Knoxville for the World’s Fair. It was a really cool event!
- WHO’S CRYING NOW ❦ Journey band members Jonathan Cain and Steve Perry penned this song from their 1981 Escape album and its the first single to set #4 on both Billboard Hot 100 and Mainstream Rock Tracks.
- SISTER GOLDEN HAIR ❦ America’s second #1 single from their fifth album album, Hearts (1975). This was strange year for a somewhat confused teenager who felt she wore her heart on her sleeve and so easily hurt.
- CALL ON ME ❦ Chicago is a favorite from our dating years. This easy-listening cart topper was before our time together but we listened to it many times after and is from the bands 1974 album Chicago VII.
- SHOW ME THE WAY ❦ Peter Frampton is a British rock mewsician. How is that I never knew such details? And, every song I liked by the dude was easy-going. Did he ever really rock out? I don’t know but I certainly need to do some research on the man. Anywho, SHOW ME THE WAY released in 1975 as a single (B-side The Crying Clown). Yeah, another classic from the year of turmoil of this young gal. I’m blaming the hormones. It gained its popularity the following year from his album, Frampton Comes Alive and his biggest hit (#6).
Please join my fellow co-hosts: XmasDolly (Party Coordinator), Stacy, Alana, Colette (taking semi-blog hiatus due to eye issues), and this month’s honorary co-host Mary from Jingle, Jangle, Jungle on the dance floor (ONLY link mewsic posts) below.

I think the 4M gang is breaking down, as most of us are in need of some repair this month and would certainly appreciate your prayers. Colette may have eye surgery this month. I’m unsure about the date. I am having tubes and balloon dilation (to stretch the Eustachian tubes) on the 16th and as you may know, Marie is having back surgery (4-hour procedure) on the 21st or 22nd. Hopefully, this will be the fix she needs to take away her chronic pain. I’m trusting God to lead the hands of our doctors/surgeons and thank you a bunch for speaking to the Big Guy upstairs. Now keep those tunes playing, your body swaying, and I’ll be boogieing over to see you soon!

Cathy
