    Boy more sad news. RIP. Music that will definitely be around for a long time, though.
    It's all good!

            My dad is a big fan, through him I got to appreciate their music as well.

                She had leukemia for a while, but it's still a blow. That's the music of my childhood.

                    Something I never noticed until I read about it today ....
                    The song I Dig Rock and Roll Music is actually a dig at the industry.
                    I never realized that before

                    Lyrics.....
                    I dig Rock and Roll music
                    And I love to get the chance to play. (and sing it)
                    I figure it's about the happiest sound goin' down today.
                    The message may not move me,
                    Or mean a great deal to me,
                    But hey! it feels so groovy to say:
                    I dig the Mamas and the Papas at "The Trip,"
                    Sunset Strip in L.A.
                    And they got a good thing goin'
                    When the words don't get in the way.
                    And when they're really wailing,
                    Michelle and Cass are sailin'.
                    Hey! they really nail me to the wall.

                    I dig Donovan in a dream-like, tripped out way
                    His crystal images tell you 'bout a brighter day
                    And when the Beatles tell you
                    They've got a word "love" to sell you
                    They mean exactly what they say

                    I dig Rock and Roll music
                    I could really get it on in that scene.
                    I think I could say somethin' if you know what I mean
                    But if I really say it, the radio won't play it
                    Unless I lay it between the lines!

                      A "dig at the industry"...or, just as much, admitting they'd rather make
                      money than say exactly what they mean.
                      "No. No no no no no no. You done got me talkin' politics. I didn't wanna'. Like I said y'all, I'm just happy to be alive. I think I'll scoot over here right by this winda', let this beautiful carriage rock me to sleep, and dream about how lucky I am." - Chris Mannix
