Mother - Pink Floyd : Yes, they are going to try and break your balls<br />2. Mama Tried - Merle Haggard: "I turned 21 in prison, doing life without parole" pure poetry<br />3. Redneck Mothers - Ray Wylie Hubbard/Jerry Jeff Walker: "mother's who have raised their sons so well/so well so well so well"<br />4. Mama, We're all Crazee Now - Slade: Forget about Quiet Riot's cover with is the one<br />5. Mama, Don't Let Your Babies.." - Make 'em be doctor's & laywers and stuff<br />6. Mama Told Me Not to Come - Randy Newman/Three Dog Night: "Want some whiskey for your water Sugar for your tea"<br />7. Mother &amp; Child Reunion - Paul Simon<br />8. Mother's Little Helper - I think I drove my mom to these<br /><br />There are lot's of others - most are tear jerkers,<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6232356679626164052-1270658737418621228?l=evenlouderthan10.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Alhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08460854473486430626noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6232356679626164052.post-67699918951915786152007-05-03T15:27:00.000-04:002007-05-03T15:37:40.554-04:00It's good to be back in the Blogoshere or whatever they are calling it these days. <br />The old blog has been retired and we'll try and and keep this one focused on music -<br />but I'm sure that movies & TV will get pulled in here - I'll try and keep my ranting to a<br />minimum. I'm pretty sure that most people really don't want to waste their time<br />listening to me complain. -<br />With this emphasis on music - I encourage all you musical types to send me your stuff (contact me via email) or tell me about local, home-grown music that you like.<br />So with that, I'll open the floodgates!<br />Thanks for stopping by, come back often.<br />Heck, I may even have some stuff to give away!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6232356679626164052-6769991895191578615?l=evenlouderthan10.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Alhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08460854473486430626noreply@blogger.com0
