Ruth Crockett at the Dual Keyboards  His Records Label (In Stereo of course)

Aside:  My family lived in Cleveland throughout the 1970’s.  The song “Funky Poodle” was written and performed by Steve Jochum in 1980 as a member of The Wild Horses.  The band, which formed at Ohio State in the mid-seventies , started out covering Rolling Stones songs (duh) and was voted the Number 1 band  in the Cleveland Area for 5 years.  The song is on the soundtrack of the 2006 movie “You, Me and Dupree” starring Owen Wilson and Kate Hudson.

Elephants memory

babar1

The Adventures of Babar the Elephant  Philips France  As I imagine many of my generation do, I remember Babar well from those first oversized books I read and reread as a young boy.  Like Bambi, it begins with his mother getting shot and killed by hunters.  Pretty heavy.  I should go back and read it again.
