This travelin’ man could’ve made a stop @ my place. . .
Too bad I wasn’t born in the 40’s . . .
I HAVE LOVED RICKY NELSON since childhood & AIN’T nothing changing that! I can recall the day I received the news of his death. I was in the ACME parking lot, and I heard it on the radio. It only spells one thing, D-E-V-A-S-T-A-T-E-D. I think there may have been piles of snow in the parking lot as well –that or my memories of ACME are running into my Ricky Nelson memory. I always wanted to run up the hills of snow in that lot, so maybe my memories merged. I can also recall the day I heard Redd Foxx passed away. I was on a certain turn on Route 50, headed to the orthodontist & his death was announced on the radio.
I just picked up Ricky’s greatest hits via iTunes. All my faves up on there. No more gawking @ youtube. Just open iTunes and put that bitch on REPEAT!
